Clock: Allow different settings for each alarm
asked 2014-08-20 22:24:08 +0200
It would be handy to have per-alarm configuration in the clock application and be able to choose (at least) different sound and different volume for each alarm. Alarm duration would also be handy. These additional options could be added to the "New alarm" / "Edit alarm" user interface.
This would be ideal for e.g.
- manually configuring a pre-alarm
- differentiating weekend alarm from workday alarm
- differentiating partner-must-get-up alarm from I-must-get-up alarm
- etc.
Sidenote: Of course, additional options would also be handy, but that's another request.
The whole alarm clock should be remaid, it sucks. It seems to be one of those things which they just whipped together so they'd have an alarm clock but never bothered/had time to actually do well.

If you need something else, I suggest to create a new question as feature request (or app request), giving details about an alarm clock that would not suck. If the idea is good and people vote for it, there are good chances someone will take care of it.
