How do I delete an alarm?

[AC Question]

can't delete alarm

My hsuband has a Droid DNA and obsessively deleted everything on it that he possibly could. I think he set a daily alarm on the clock widget, but then either deleted the widget or archived it someplace. Right now, the alarm goes off at 6:30 every morning and I can cancel it for the day, but I do not see how I can get into the clock to completely remove the alarm. I can't find the clock anywhere among his apps, but I DO see the little clock all the way at the top of the screen, next to the wifi signal.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Re: can't delete alarm

Welcome to Android Central! Go to Settings>Apps>All, and look for Clock. Tap it, and see if it says "Enable"--this would mean that he disabled it. Tap Enable, and you should now be able to find Clock in the App Drawer. If you don't see Clock listed alphabetically in Settings>Apps>All, then scroll all the way to the bottom, because disabled apps are usually at the end. There might be a separate Settings>Apps>Disabled list as well.

Thanks for your reply, B. Diddy! I found the clock you are referring to and it was actually enabled. Is there any other place he could have set an alarm? I don't see anything clock/alarm related in the rest of his apps....Thanks agan for your help!

So can you go to the App Drawer, find Clock, and open it? Then go to the Alarm section--you should see any recurring alarms there, and be able to delete them.

Applepie, it depends on the app it's in. There may be a "Delete" button (or just the word Delete that you tap), there may be an X next to each alarm in a list of them (even if there's only 1 in the list), you have to look at your clock or alarm app. (If you get a notification when you get the alarm, long-press the notification and you should be able to see the name of the app sending it - that would be where the alarm is.)
