This definitely happens to me. My clothes dryer is "smart" which means it refuses to just run for a fixed time and has some sort of smart detection of when to stop. It doesn't work well. Instead I have to run it several times before the clothes are actually dry. There's also no easy way to set it to a fixed time long enough. You have to mess around with the dial, long press another button, hit another button over 12 times - then that works for one load and it goes back to default "smart" settings.
