Setting alarms via Gadgetbridge on Android

Hello everyone,
I was wondering: is setting the alarms via gadgetbridge supposed to work?
With the current v0.17 Bangle App and FDroids v0.45.1 release of Gadgetbridge for Android I'm simply getting a blank screen after tapping the icon on my smartphone.
Given the changelogs and source code, I got the hunch that it should work...

Everything else is working just fine (battery status, notifications, weather forecast, find lost device).
I'd be happy if anyone could fill me in on the details - maybe I'm just lacking some prerequisites.

Thank you in advance!

Hi! As far as I remember it's not supported yet. I think Gadgetbridge may send the command over, but the Bangle.js Gadgetbridge widget doesn't do anything with that data.

I guess there's the question of whether it should totally overwrite alarms that have been set on the watch already or if they should be different...

After checking with GB v0.51 it seems that Alarms are not being send to the Bangle.js yet.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
