Galaxy Watch Clock/Alarm/Timer

[Snakehide]

Wasn't sure where else to post this, so here we go!

 

I like wearing my Galaxy watch at night, sleep tracking accuracy aside. I like setting my phone which has my alarm on it on my chair a few feet from my bed so I have to physically get out of bed to turn off my alarm, helps me get going. If I have the Clock app set to receive notifications on my watch, my watch will go off with that alarm, but defeats the purpose of setting the phone to the side, since I can just dismiss it with a literal twist of my wrist and go back to bed (can confirm, have suffered as a result. Ugh.). I would like to NOT disable notifications for Clock on my watch, because I like using it for dismissing timers as well, or seeing when my next alarm is coming up. So is there a way I could disable the alarm from buzzing on my watch, but keep it on my phone?

 

If it matters, I'm using a trusty Galaxy Note 8, so the older version of Clock may not have a feature related to this compared to a newer one. The watch itself is a Galaxy Watch 4 Classic.

Go to app notifications on your watch. It's in the watch's settings and then it'll send you to the phone. Have the All apps at the top turned off, scroll down to the Clock app, turn that off. Now it should only ring on your phone.

Except that also disables timers, which I want to sync with my phone. It's just certain alarms that I don't want to sync with my watch.

Well sorry my guy, but samsung didn't develop the app with that in mind.

 

You can make alarms on the watch which play only there,  or just disconnect from your watch at night.

At this point, I kind of figured that was the case. Thanks anyway.

So I discovered with the Galaxy exclusive app Goodlock in the Routines extension, I can disable bluetooth for a set amount of time automatically and then have it turn back on at a certain time, after my alarm goes off so it doesn't send to my watch. Maybe this will be helpful for other people, idk. I don't think Goodlock is available on devices without the Galaxy Store, sorry!
