Do Alarms Turn Off Automatically After a Long Period of Time?


Here’s the story. I went to a vacation overseas but still would like to receive sms. So I left my old phone back home with my sim and setup an sms forwarding stuff that automatically sends all my received sms to my email. (using Tasker and AutoMail since I already use those).

Unfortunately, I forgot to turn off my weekday alarm. I was wondering if the alarm turns off after some time that it wasn’t dismissed (an hour? half a day? etc.) because I’m worried that my neighbor (we live in a condo) would go nuts if my phone is ringing 24/7 while I’m away.

Phone is on Android 10, LG G7 ThinQ, and the alarm app is Sleep As Android.

    Yes, just this morning I slept through one on Android 14. I woke up much later with a notification something like “skipped alarm” or something like that

    But… You’re using sleep as android so I don’t know if something gonna change

      OP could’ve changed the settings according to the docs to repeat backup alarms with that app :)

      RIP their neighbour.

      Fun tidbit? I have a Cubot King Kong Pro (yes, it’s called that) which has the old Nokia feature of actually turning the phone on if its off to sound a scheduled alarm. I left my Cubot in my locker at work and it wasn’t until I got back in a week or so later did my locker neighbour tell me about my locker, making funny sounds…I have “Fuck You Mr Garrison” as one of my alarm tones.

      Ooops.
