Alarms appearing out of nowhere, filling up my list

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Every so often when I try to set an alarm for something, I find that the alarms list on my Sense is full. I haven't set any, they seem to be different times, and they're all turned off. So I delete all 8, then set the alarm that I wanted.

Two or three days later when I go to set an alarm for something, same problem - all 8 slots are in use and I have to delete them. None of them match the previous alarm I set.

What is going on? It's been doing this for the last couple of years; it didn't start when I changed my phone or installed any particular app as far as I can remember (my phone is pretty static - I might install a game or two in a given year, but mostly don't mess with it too much). It's really irritating when I just want to set an alarm to remind me to bake something or get a one-off alarm to leave somewhere.

Hi @RusselP - have you tried after removing all alarms restarting the watch just in case they didn't get deleted properly ?

Well, since I can set new alarms once I delete the magical ones, I believe they are being deleted properly. The problem is that in a few days or a week when I try to set another alarm, the list will be full again for some reason. 8 alarms with different times (although they seem to be set for every 30 minutes) that I didn't set myself and don't seem to be getting set by any app on my phone that I'm aware of.

@RusselP - do you by any chance use voice commands to set alarms?

Usually, yes.

@RusselP - alarms set by voice commands are best removed manually, as you are already doing.

I may not have been clear. These alarms are not being set by me. I'll delete all 8, then create one alarm by voice, then a few days later when I want to create another alarm for something, there will be 8 alarms already on my watch that I didn't set. I'm trying to discover where those magic alarms are coming from and stop them, because it's annoying that nearly every time I want to set an alarm, I have to go delete 8 alarms in order to do so.
