Bought a GW3 for my wife and got an Active 1st generation as a bonus, i dont use watches, just a xiaomi in bedtime as an a vibration alarm to not wake my wife. Tried the alarm on the active but it just gives one short vibration at a time, can I configured it to keep vibrating, or is there an alarm app no tizen that allow me to do so? I tried searching on Galaxy Store but could find one

Ever used your XP to replace your alarm clock? Has it been a good substitute? I'm thinking of doing that... I'm wondering if it will work better than the broken one I have now and the cheap one I bought from Walmart...
I use it all the time, it's loud and obnoxious. Just the thing you'll need to wake up in the morning haha. It's easy to set too, and you can have lots of different alarms set, it's a pretty sweet built in clock/alarm.
Yes. Yes. It is very very good as an alarm.
I use alarm clock plus, it's free and more obnoxious than STOCK

I use the Xperia Play as my default alarm clock and I use the ' Xperia ' ringtone for the alarm. Sounds so nice in the morning
I have the dock and it makes the XP the best Alarm Clock ever.
when it wakes me up I never now which button is snoose and which is disable - I wish they were bigger in size and coloured red and green to make it more visible
Combined with the dock, it's my current alarm clock. I use the " rise up" melody, because it's nice enough, and it's been fine so far.
I've used it before as an alarm. It was good. It woke me up anyway.

Yeah, I guess this should all make sense since you can hook it up with a speaker...
Yup use it everyday, I have the XP dock sitting beside my bed, threw out my old alarm clock.

So what if the sound is off (from the power button) to not wake people up because of notification sounds... will it still beep or make noise to wake you up?
I place my phone right next to my head and I wake up to Edith Piaf, Inception baby!
I use the default alarm clock that's in stock, I don't like the standard ringtone, hence why it's easy to wake up every morning

The alarm clock will still go off as loud as possible even with sound off, no need to worry. I keep my phone on vibrate at all times and it has never failed to play the alarm sounds and wake me up.
Always! Stock alarm clock with the Piezo Alarm as the sound with volume all the way up... Very ear piercing! Even if I snooze the alarm for about 40 minutes or until my mum yells at me to actually get up.
please note i have had some issues with the alarm not going off even though i set a test alarm and i didnt use a task killer.

That exact same thing has happened to me maybe once or twice. It would just say that my alarm is set for the next day, like it was skipped or something.
I bought the XperiaPlay dock since it was only cheap for this very purpose.
Sadly, didn't realise I couldn't use it with any kind of case.
So I have been unable to use the dock.
Wow, this is some coincidence. I was just about to post and saw this topic.
Just got my dock. Only problem is, the phone doesn't go into the alarm clock mode as shown in the pictures. I guess it's because of some bloatware i removed. can someone please tell me what app is required for the dock-clock mode?
Also, like some people are using it, I would also be keeping it on a small side-table next to my bed, with both cables unplugged. Since the phone is plugged into the earphone jack on the dock, wouldn't that disable the phone speakers and therefore no alarm sound?
Hey Everyone
Have another question here...is there any way to make the alarm clock on my LG G3 set off the vibrate on my SW3? Basically want it to vibrate as my phones alarm goes off to wake me up! Ha.
Thanks

I use Sleep as Android and it'll do exactly what you're looking for - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.urbandroid.sleep&hl=en
I've got mine set up to just buzz my watch first, then a failsafe that goes off on my watch and phone.
Ooooo looks brilliant!!! Do all the other features like sleep tracking etc drain the battery much then?

It used to drain your battery totally, but dev recently got it working excellent instead.
Now our sw3 is one of the most battery efficient watch
To run the app on, battery "drains" around 17% over night, which is great since it various sensors are being used.
Regarding vibration on the watch in general: I think it's as easy as, if an app generates vibration alerts on your phone, it'll generate these on the watch too.

Ooooo brilliant! Thanks for the info I'll give it a shot over the weekend then when I've had time to mess with all the settings, annoying though as I like using timely and would really just like it to vibrate my watch...

I just got the SW3 yesterday. I'm trying to get my alarms to sync, found this an tried Sleep as Android. However, it seems no matter what settings I use, my watch only buzzes once very briefly for the alarm while it goes off as normal on my phone. As if just a notification that an alarm is going off. Is this just how it works? Any ideas?
I followed the "instruction" chapter on wearables to enable Smartwatch in the app and enabled the vibration (Smartwatch) from start option, but I can't find any other real set up options or instructions.

I made two alarms - One with the phone vibrating / making noise, and the watch vibrating, then one set ~5 min before that, set to silent, and disabled vibration (so the phone does nothing), and set the Vibrate (Smartwatch) to "From start" as well.
When the first alarm goes off, mine buzzes once briefly at the time of the alarm, and then once again maybe 30 seconds later, then it starts getting more frequent after that. When I just went to check what my settings were, I also noticed there's an option to start the watch vibration "before" the alarm - though I'm not sure how much before the alarm "before" is, since it doesn't seem to be configurable, but that may alleviate my use of two alarms.
Hope that helps!
Official Clock app from Google
now u can install on any android and the alarm appear on smartwatch , to dismiss or postpone
Love my watch, absolutely hated the fact that it recently stated vibrating when the alarm went off.
After trying blocking the app, and toggling the vibration setting I came to the conclusion that it was the Google clock update that caused it.
The update touted the ability to snooze/dismiss alarms from the watch,and that's great. Even the OPTION to have the wearable vibrate would be great, but always vibrating was a dealbreaker.
I'm happy to report that uninstalling the Clock update has fixed my problem, and just thought I'd share the knowledge.

I am looking to get Huawei watch. The app that I would use the most is alarm and timer functionality since I work at home and would like to see timer countdowns for my breaks and lunches .
Is it possible with the native app timer to have multiple timers set up and choose the one I want accordingly? like 15 mins and 30 mins one so I don't have to set it everytime.
Also with alarms can I have multiple ones?
When an alarm or timer is up does it beep or vibrate?
If I start a countdown timer does it show it in ambient mode in numerical format not watch face?
Would appreciate if you can post pics. Thanks.
I see no one has replied yet. I think I would suggest you look at Android Wear apps and see if something will meet your needs. I find the Alarm function with the watch to be pretty limiting. I downloaded an Alarm and Timer application, but really haven't used it yet. I don't think you can have multiple timers set up on the native app, and I don't think even the one I downloaded has that capability. I think you can have multiple alarms, but there in no functional speaker on the watch (or any Android Wear watch), as I understand it, Android Wear does not yet support a speaker. Need an Apple watch for that..

Hello everyone.
Since a week, I'm wondering if there are any other alarm apps for the SW2. The reason? It wakes me up the hard way, and it's like you barely slept.
I'm wondering, and asking to you XDA, if any of you knows an alternative to the stock alarm app that has a progressive vibration, just like the progressive tone on your phone's alarm.
Thanks, even if you haven't find a solution!
Standalone app are not authorized on SW2 so just alarm on phone or watch but with connected phone app.
Otherwise you can set 2,3 or more alarms at few minutes interval
