Does Versa 2 have silent alarms? Where?

[glenm125]

I don't see a board specific to Versa 2, so I'll ask here.  I also searched for Silent, but I could only see instructions and comments for other devices.

Just got a Versa 2, replacing my previous Charge 2. When I look in the usual place in the android app (click my avatar, then my device), I don't see Silent Alarms in the menu.  Is there a new way to manage alarms for the Versa 2?

Hi @glenm125  look here - click - for the Versa series information. See if that helps.

No, unfortunately. I had already read that, it describes a way to do this on Versa, but the method it describes doesn't seem to work for Versa 2. There is no "Silent Alarms" item in the device menu of the Android app.

That said, I've discovered I can manage alarms on the watch screen itself. Now if only my fingers were smaller. I wish this were still possible in the app.

Hi @glenm125 have you downloaded your user manual?

Users where upset that they needed to use the app or website to setup alarms

You're right, the Versa 2 user manual (not Charge 4 you linked) in fact says to use the Alarms app. I missed that before. 

I guess I can understand users being upset, though I don't agree with it. I need my phone to view sleep scores and times, track water drunk, food eaten, weight.  Since I need to have a phone, I have a phone. Maybe it would be good to *also* allow alarms to be set up in a larger UI, since that is finicky on a tiny watch face. By all means, *also* allow them to be set up on the watch, and also allow them to be turned on/off on the watch. Come to think of it, that's how Charge 2 worked.
