Im looking for the actual quick way to acknowledge the silent alarm?

With no side button and being woken from a dead sleep the ability to shut it off without a hammer pre-coffee is not so good….. so far only slapping the watch excessively hard twice  exposes the swipe screens??  Light taps do not work.  Even light taps don't work normally?   Also wrist flip to wake no longer works

You need to swipe up from the bottom of the screen and then tap to dismiss the alarm. You can also swipe down in order to snooze. The display needs to be on when you do this. You can double tap the screen to turn on the display.

This has got to be the worst feature of this tracker. I can’t imagine that everyone is happy that the only way to silence an alarm is to look down at your Charge 5, and make 3 separate gestures  - particularly those of us who use multiple alarms per day.
