The alarm is something inseparable to the mobile phone. A daily tune without which it would be more difficult for us to have a normal life, with its routines and obligations. There are people who don't need the alarm, but the rest of us mortals have to live with that punishment. That is why, from the factory, the phone usually comes with its own clock application, more or less complete, with which to set not only alarms, but also set times with the stopwatch or timer.
If your phone is pure Android, that is, it does not have a customization layer, such as Touchwiz from Samsung or EMUI from Huawei, the clock application will be the system's own. And with it we are going to stay, to tell you the keys to configure it. The Google Clock app can also be downloaded separately from the Android app store.
All the settings of the Android clock application can be found in the three-dot menu located at the top of the application itself application.
Set the alarm duration
In this section we will tell the alarm how long it should be ringing until it turns off, by itself, and without us pressing any button or sliding the icons on the screen. We can set a time between 1 and 25 minutes. We can even tell it to never turn off until we do.This is great for those who struggle with their pillows every morning.
Repeat alarm after
Where would we be without snooze? That magic button, the equivalent of the '5 more minutes' that we used to tell our mothers. In this case, it doesn't have to be 5. On digital nightstand clocks, the snooze applied an 'additional rest' of 10 minutes Here we can set it between 1 minute and up to half an hour. We advise you to place it, at most, in 10 minutes. And that you always set the alarm a little before your usual time to get up.
Volume and power buttons
If you want to have more at hand the possibility of postponing or canceling an alarm, instead of having to see the mobile screen, with this option you have it very simple.Here you can put what you want to do with the alarm if you press the volume or power buttons. Do you want to snooze the alarm, or just turn it off altogether? Then activate the option and forget about having to look at your mobile Hold out your hand, and that's it.
Increase volume
Depending on the type of alarm sound you apply, it will sound louder or softer. There are times when the sound is so energetic that it can make us wake up in a very bad way, ruining what could be a good day. To do this, nothing better than telling the application to go raising the volume of the alarm little by little, gradually. To do this, you just have to go to the last option of the settings and activate 'Increase volume'.
How to add different time zones
If you are one of those Android users who travels all day, whether for business or pleasure, you should know that the Android clock application allows you to add time zones. To do this, she enters the clock app and looks at the second icon. It will show the current time zone, a traditional analog clock, and at the bottom, a world globe. If you click on the ball you can select which cities you want to have in the list of time zones.
