How do I allow countdown timer alarm to go off while phone is in vibrate?

I upgraded from Galaxy Mega to Galaxy S6 Edge +.
There is no menu button. In Galaxy Mega, part of the menu contains changing the settings of the countdown timer alarm.
One setting I had was that I could **set my phone to vibrate while the countdown timer alarm rings when the countdown finishes.**
So texts and notifications from apps make my phone only vibrate, but my countdown timer rings.
In Galaxy S6 Edge +, it seems like my phone vibrates iff my countdown timer alarm vibrates.
How can I allow the countdown timer to ring while my phone is set to vibrate mode?
---
Galaxy mega has option in timer to change volume. The timer indeed goes off even when the phone is in vibrate. This does not seem to be allowed in s6e+

Bounty note: I think there's something in sounds and notifications, but I can't seem to find it.

How do I record calls on Viber, Skype, Whatsapp, Voxer, Google, Facebook, etc?
There seem to be apps for [recording for local or international calls][1] but none for **Internet calls**. Some apps on the Google Play Store claim to be able to record calls on Viber or Skype.

There seem to be apps for recording for local or international calls but none for **Internet calls**.
Some apps on the Google Play Store claim to be able to record calls on Viber or Skype. I even found some apps not in the play store. I tried some, but I'm not sure if they work. I haven't gotten around to testing any yet. Some reviews of the apps I found seem to be mixed. I don't feel like reinventing the wheel.
I have a second phone that I would use except that **sometimes the calls I make require earphones**.
If it matters, the phone I use for Viber, Skype, etc calls is a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus, and my other phone is a Samsung Galaxy Mega.
Please don't bring up any stuff about legality.

Must I really go through each page? If no, how can I go drag to another page?

Can I make the weather widget depend on wifi rather than location?

Is there a way I can still use the weather widget to see temperature without turning location? If not, what can I use to see temperature and time using a widget way without turning on location?
