9/10/2023 0 Comments Turn off snooze alarm![]() And if you want to snooze an alarm, turn it counterclockwise. There’s got to be a better way to turn off alarms and timers!Īnd there is–if your Samsung watch includes the physical bezel.įor the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic model, try turning your watch’s bezel clockwise to stop the alarm or timer. And to snooze it, slide it to the left towards the X icon. So if you want to turn an alarm off, slide it to the right towards the snooze icon. You don’t slide up but rather slide the icon to the opposite side for other Samsung Galaxy watch models, like the Active 2 or the Galaxy Watch 3. Sometimes, swiping up on a straight line from the X works too–but not always. If you simply tap the X or press and hold the X, it won’t shut off the alarm. ![]() Slide itĪlthough it wasn’t clear to me, there’s a reason Samsung built animation into when an alarm or timer goes off.įor the Wear OS 3 Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and 5 models, to turn off an alarm, you’re supposed to swipe up along the edge from the X button in a clockwise curve until you reach the top. That’s exactly what I’m doing, and it’s not working–ugh! Don’t tap an alarm or timer. I even checked that user guide that said to tap the X button to stop an alarm and tap the zZ button to snooze it. And consequently, every time I tried turning that darn alarm off, it snoozed instead. When I couldn’t get the alarm to turn off, I thought maybe I was tapping on the wrong part of the screen, where the buttons overlap. Not only does tapping the X button not work, but they also overlapped the X and snooze buttons to make things even more confusing! And tapping the “z” inside a clock means snoozing that alarm.īut clearly, Samsung’s design team clearly doesn’t. Okay, maybe I’m the only one that thinks a giant X on your watch screen means tapping it turns the alarm off. It’s all about Samsung’s (terrible) design! Google’s clock app for the phone is a little different–it’s a blue clock face with a gray or white hour/minute hands. Google watch’s clock apps are white with blue icons.Samsung clock apps are purple with white icons for both the watch and the phone.Yeah, it’s really a mess! How you tell the difference between the Clock appsĬonfused about which Clock app you use on your phone and watch? Both work the same as an alarm, timer, stopwatch, and world clock on your phone and watch. ![]() But you can only install Samsung Clock on Samsung phones. While you cannot install Google’s Clocks apps (Alarm, Timer, Stopwatch) on a Tizen watch, you can install Google Clock apps on a Wear OS 3 watch.Īdditionally, you can install Google Clock on all phones, including Samsung phones. To add confusion to the mix, both Samsung and Google offer an app called Clock. You’ll find these clock apps on all of Samsung’s watches, including older Tizen models like the Active 2 or Samsung Watch 3 and newer Wear OS 3 models like the Watch 5 or 4. The watch app I use on my Galaxy Watch is the Samsung Alarm app, that’s part of Samsung’s Clock app, including Timer, Stopwatch, and World Clock.
