Dismiss Upcoming Alarm?

[U5ER1]

A small but extremely useful feature I had on my Nexus 4, which allowed for you to dismiss an upcoming alarm from the notifications bar. It seems to be missing from the S5.


Any ideas if its hidden anywhere?

I think you have to have clock version 3.0.0 (settings>apps>all>clock) for it to dismiss an upcoming alarm from the notifications bar on kit kat.But if you have that clock version already then Im not sure

That's how I understood from what I read. I quoted part of the article below:

One such minor enhancement that Google has introduced in Android 4.4 KitKat is the ability to dismiss upcoming alarms from the notification bar. A notification with the ability to dismiss an upcoming alarm will show up on the notification bar 2 hours before the alarm is ready to go off.
This new feature is a part of the new Clock application introduced in Android 4.4, rather than the OS itself.

I think you have to have clock version 3.0.0 (settings>apps>all>clock) for it

the version of the clock on the s5 (that I have) is 3.0.822221, so later than the first version to have it. Struggling to find any apps that have it as a feature too.

Agree this is a very useful feature and it would be nice for Samsung to include it.

Update Google Clock is now available for download. I was looking for this and google clock was released before I found a app that I was happy with.
