Alarm didn't go off software version 24.10 (94553cd)

Here's the scenario.  Sunday was Nov 7, 2021, I live in U.S. eastern time zone so time change happens.  The watch time updates automatically, all is good.  Set alarm to wake up at 5:05 Monday morning (once, vibration only).  It works.  Set time to wake up at 5:05 (not recurring, once, vibration only) for Tuesday morning and it doesn't go off.  I woke up at 5:45.  Thought maybe I snoozed or turned it off.  However, the status still shows it as "on".  Did a quick check, set an alarm for 6:00.  It went off, and the status went to off.   I can only assume that the 5:05 alarm never went off. 

Read up on all the Connect sync related bugs.  Don't think it's related.  I disable sync during my sleep and generally only turn it on when I'm going to sync with the phone.  Checked the setup in Connect and sure enough, the 5:05 alarm is still active as (Once) and all others are off.

One weird thing I noticed.  The alarms do not honor the Sounds "Tone and Vibration" setting.   The 6:00 alarm had "Tone and Vibration" set but only used the vibration.   Anyone else seeing unreliable alarm behavior?

  • Ok, did another experiment.  Set an alarm, it went off and I never turned it off.  Ran for 5 minutes and stopped alarming.   And the status remained "on".  So I probably slept through the whole alarm.  :-)  Guess I needed my sleep.

    So if an alarm goes off but I don't ever wake up did the alarm really go off?
