iPhones don't even have a way to cancel an alarm that's coming up in five minutes.
No wonder why Communism is when no iPhone
I use that feature basically every morning. My alarm is only a backup for the roughly 3 times a year I oversleep. I hate waking up to an alarm which motivates me to get up before it goes off.
I have a home assistant automation that simulates a sunrise (not very well tbh, I need to get some dimmer bulbs) before my phone alarm goes off so I'm usually awake before it does. I use this feature almost every weekday.
I cancel the upcoming alarm on an iPhone all the time. Idk what the screen is called if it’s lock or whatever but there’s a button right there.
Might not be recognizing sarcasm though. Spent some time in world to see what it’s about.
Wait, where is the button?
Not sarcasm; I looked at the lock screen (where it is in Android) and the alarm app (where any reasonable person would put it) and couldn't find it.
It’s on the lock screen, but I think only when the alarm is coming up
Edit: I can only get it to show up there when the alarm has gone off and I’ve snoozed it
It appears close to the finish time, but you can also tap the alarm icon itself and it’ll take you right to a cancel button
I just tried it and it only for snoozing alarms. I definitley cancel those mfs all the time.
E: it’s timers, I use timers as a snooze one I cancel those from the Lock Screen while still asleep all the time.
Either on the Lock Screen or just open your Clock app where you had set the alarm, and toggle it off.
If you use the sleeping settings, and wake up before your wake up alarm, it will prompt you “it seems you’re awake, do you want to cancel your upcoming alarm?”
