Does the out of the box alarm widget on Note 2 support voice?

I thought it told me to use Stop or Snooze once and it worked, but lately I've not seen that note and voice has been humorous for us instead of functional. It's hilarious me and the kids yelling stop.

Did you check to make sure it's enabled? Mine works fine.

A theory -
Mine worked this morning and I think it's because I was actually using the device when the alarm went off. i.e. already unlocked the phone.
When the alarm goes off and I pull it out of my pocket while it's locked - I think that's when the alarm's voice controls don't work.

Will test.
 
Well, it seems to be working fine now - it still sometimes takes a couple tries but that's semi-ok for voice recognition.
It's possible we were earlier yelling "OFF" instead of "Stop".

I think it's a design decision - you should turn alarms off not stop them; but either they decided on "Stop" because "Off" might be used by some other software to actually turn the phone off... or it's a KORAZY language barrier thing.
