I am using the default alarm clock on the phone.
I generally snooze a few times in the morning, but am finding the snooze function to not work all the time.
I've found if i set my alarm for on the hour (5:00am), the snooze never works.
But if i set my alarm for 5 minutes past the hour (5:05am) it seems to work most of the time.
I have set my alarm to snooze 3 times with 5 minute intervals.
I am definitely hitting snooze and not by mistake turning the alarm off.
Is anyone else finding this alarm unreliable?
Can someone suggest a good alternative alarm to download?
I didn´t notice anything wrong with mine, but there are some good free alternatives in the market.
What ROM are you running? I haven't noticed this problem with mine.

Is there an alarm app that uses the accelerometer or light sensor to snooze ?
I didn't find one.
try to look for
"Sanfter Wecker" (German) or "Gentle Alarm"
Its the best Alarm App for Android!
Wow, Gentle alarm looks really cool, thank you.
Gentle alarm just decided not to wake me up today and I missed school.
It says it's a demo version.
So I'm looking for a free app now. Any suggestions ?
An Alternative is Alarmdroid it is also has Speech Output, to tell you what time it is.
alarm with voice reaction
anyone knows app which wakes up in the morning but you can silence it with your voice? e.g you say silence and alarm shuts up?
Recently I thought my alarm wasn't going off in the morning anymore. However I found out that the alarm has been auto snoozing itself after exactly one minute. It usually takes me around 2-3 minutes to get up (I'm a heavy sleeper) so this is a problem. I'm on Jelly "Beans" build 5. I don't want to use an alternative alarm clock since I like the smart alarm feature and the stock app overall just fits with touchwiz. I've already tried clearing app data and wiping dalvik cache/cache. Any help would be appreciated!
I've been running into problem, where at random intervals my alarm clock, Gentle Alarm, and Ringo both seem to lose their custom ringtone/alarmtones and revert back to defaults. I've tried blocking them from being closed by the battery saving software, and then they seem to work for a few days. Ringo still works, but Gentle Alarm just reset itself again. Any ideas?
When an alarm triggers and I use de snooze button it works ok only once, when the alarm starts 10 minutes later and I use again, the alarm doesn't work until next day.
Anyone else with the same problem?
My firmware version is v0.1.0.51, but in the previous version it is the same.
same on my BIP and now on GTS.. once snoozeing works good and sometimes (too often) only once...
Has anyone had any issues with the alarm clock on the S8? I got mine in February, and since day one, the alarm clock feature has never worked properly. Specifically, the repeat feature doesn't work. I can set the alarm for say 7:00am and have it repeat every day. The first day it will work from initially setting it, but it won't work on subsequent days. Ironically, it will display a 'missed alarm' message, which isn't ideal when you're reading it at 8:00am
The only way I can get it to work for the next day is to switch that alarm off and then on again.
Yes, I know I could buy an alarm clock, but that's not the point.
