Wat? Because a century old device can only set a repeating alarm, the 2025 $1k smartphone should, too?! I set so many one of alarms on my android weekly, I would be infuriated if I had to use the calendar for that.
- badc0ffee 1y agoYou can set as many non-repeating alarms as you like, as long as they're within the next 24 hours. What kind of event are you creating an alarm for that's more than a day away? On Friday, do you create your alarm to wake up on Monday? Does Android have a calendar-like view of your upcoming alarms? (Sorry for the barrage of questions, but this is interesting to me.)

- NBJack 1y agoI frequently use one-time alarms for early morning travel a few days away. What makes them great is that the alarms in general are much more robust in their requirements to turn them off; I can accidentally dismiss a calendar alert, but I have a much harder time accidentally deactivating the clock alarm in a sleep induced stupor at odd hours. More importantly, alarms don't get silenced by my nightly do not disturb schedule.
