Alarm notification off

[jhilker]

I'm running Android 12 (SP2A.220305.013.A3) on my Pixel 6. I've noticed that the adjustment showing in my notifications doesn't match what's actually set in my clock app. See attached screenshots for an example. Clearing cache and force closing the clock app doesn't help. Restarting the phone fixes it for a few minutes, but incorrect alarm shows up again.

Any idea what's going on here? Would this be an Android 12 bug that I should report, or is it a bug in the clock app?

I started a thread about something bery similar over in the Pixel 6/Pro forum a few months ago.

Make sure you don't have an app using the alarm function to perform its duties. I had Macrodroid set to use the alarm for one of my triggers and it was causing the same thing.

How would I search to find if there's another app using the alarm? As far as I know I haven't set it.

That's a good question. Do you use any app that might use a timer or alarm function? Just make sure it's using the timer of the app instead of the phone's alarm as the timer.

Here's an example where I had Macro Droid set to use the alarm when I didn't need to, which caused a similar issue on my P6P.

I don't know of any other app that's using my alarm.

This has been occurring prior to the most recent update to Android 12 (SP2A.220405.004). The update didn't fix this issue either.

Last night I reached out via Google One support, really only asking how to report it. They had me go through several troubleshooting steps, none of which helped. One step was to clear data in the Pixel Launcher, which meant I have to recreate my folders and widgets on my home screens. Still working this morning on making those updates.

I've just moved the alarm tile to my last screen in notifications, to get it out of the way. But even my lockscreen shows the incorrect alarm, I will have to see if I can remove that. This is really frustrating, but I guess it's just a 1st world problem.

Did it ever get fixed? I have the same issue and it's driving me nuts!
Though I can't update my phone anymore as I have a Pixel 3a.

I did a hard reset, and that fixed it for me.

Ugh yeah I'll consider it.
Thanks!

This problem showed up again for me, but I searched, and found that my ISS tracking app was placing an alarm to indicate when the station would be overhead. I removed that app, and the problem was solved!
