That’s so odd to me, too. I’m notified when the buzzer goes off. I would hear the buzzer before I heard my phone.
And who needs to be notified immediately when a cycle is done? I’m lucky if my laundry doesn’t sit there for hours after I’ve heard the buzzer and said to myself, I should do that laundry.
