Features
- The advantage of running SimpleAlarms as an addon to SimpleClockPro is it can be called directly from the watch face, and
- if either the app or the clock face are running the Alarm alert will occur.
- For short periods SimpleAlarms can also be installed as a standalone App, however Fitbit don't allow access to system alerts unless the app is running.
If the app is closed the alarm alert won't occur.
- Tip: For Sense and Versa 3 watches, use the watch Settings to assign SimpleAlarms
- to the watch long press short-cut for easy starting.
- For All watches, SimpleAlarms launch icon can also be moved to the first Apps screen on the watch for quick access.
