Alarms on some Pixel Watches are ringing too early or too late


Alarms on some Pixel Watches are ringing too early or too late



Seems to be that some users are having problems with the alarms of the Google Pixel Watch, to the point of not being able to really trust their operation due to their lack of punctuality. As we read in 9to5Google, It is not a case of users falling asleep in the morning thinking that the alarm has not gone off, quite the contrary.

for now, the margin of error seems to be about 10 minutes, regardless of whether they are behind or aheadso that for any given time that we have set our alarm, we have a 20-minute time slot in which it can ring, which is quite problematic.

This seems to have to do with night mode or idle power saving, so it should be solvable with a simple patch that prevents the clock from taking up to 10 minutes to update its status, or at least, that it does not affect the alarm in the process.

Be that as it may, Google does not seem to have ruled on the matter, so for now we will have to wait and see if any update fixes it. At the moment, the most prudent thing we can do is set the alarm on our smartphone instead of using the Pixel Watch for it.
