Turn off or delete alarms on Android
The way you turn off alarms on Android depends on your phone model. Here we cover the steps for Google clock app and Samsung clock app.
Disable alarms in Google’s clock app
If your phone uses Google’s official clock app, launch this app on your phone. Tap “Alarm” in the bottom bar of the app.
On the Alarms page, locate the alarm that you want to disable. Then in the lower right corner of this alarm clock, turn off the switch.
The switch is now greyed out, indicating that the alarm is disabled.
To remove an alarm, tap that alarm in the list. Then select “Delete” from the expanded menu.
Your selected alarm is now gone from your Clock app.
Disable alarms in Samsung’s clock app
To turn off the alarm on a Samsung phone, launch your phone’s default clock app. Tap “Alarm” in the bottom bar of the app.
On the following page, turn off the switch next to the alarm you want to turn off. Your alarm clock is now deactivated.
To remove an alarm, tap the three dots at the top of the alarm list. Choose Edit.
You can now select the alarms to be deleted. Tap the circle icon next to an alarm clock to select it.
After selecting your alarm(s) to delete, tap Delete at the bottom.
