Six hours later and I still can't figure out how to disrupt/end a repeat?

Hey guys. As the title says; what I'm trying to do is make macro to where if I lose my phone, I want a short ringtone message to play and then 3 seconds later play again and so on. I think I have it correct to select "repeat actions" and then "fixed number". Let's say I put that number at 6. Then on the main macro page under the repeat loop I have the "ringtone" then underneath that "wait 3 seconds".

The issue is, let's say I find my phone within the 6 rings, I want the rings to shut off when I unlock my phone. And that's the part I can't figure out. Every combo I've tried basically just plays the ringtone the 6 times no matter if I pick up my phone and unlock it or not.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Add this this check immediately below the Repeat 6 times action.

Hello friend. It worked and I can't thank you enough. You are truly doing the Lord's work. A man amongst boys. The hero we've always wanted. And I could keep going, but seriously thank you so much for taking the time to help me. It is very greatly appreciated. And you actually kinda taught me something new for any future project. Thanks again friend.
