Ive got a Samsung galaxy s10 plus. 

And a new sense. 

 

When my alarm on the Phone goes off on the Phone, nothing is happening on my watch. Ive marked it in the notificationsettings in the sense app, that it should receive notifications from the standard watch on my samsung galaxy s10.

 

When I set my Phone to silentmode in the night, it would be Very Nice if my sense would automatically sync with my Phone, so that the same thing happens here. 

 

What do you guys think?

@Mels12  A quick search of the feature board will bring up a request for what the OP is asking for. 

As for moving the alarm back onto the app, being there was a big problem for many. Complaints include:

  • No ability to set the alarm on the wrist the way every other watch made, does. 
  • To simply set a quick alarm requires pulling out the phone. An unnecessary step that should not be 
  • Requires an internet connection to set the alarm. Cant set it while out camping or on a cruise ship.

The setting was moved because the Fitbit users do not want this setting to be in the app. They had been asking for 7+ years. Personally I think it should be in both places.

I've used Galaxy and Fitbit for the past year.  From what I understand, the watch does not have access to the "clock" functionality of the phone.  It's either a Samsung or Android issue.  But I'm with you, the feature would be extremely useful.  And I could eliminate the Fitbit alarms.

Hi, Mels! Where do we suggest this to the developer? 😊

The linked suggestion is not actually what the OP is asking about. We want alarms that are set on the phone's clock feature (not Fitbit app) to be able to be controlled by the watch -- i.e snoozed, turned off, etc..  But I don't think that Fitbit has any control over this since access to that phone functionality is currently restricted by the phone developers AFAIK.  If you buy a Samsung watch (which I had), then you can control the clock/alarm features on a Samsung phone.
