Turn Off or Delete Alarms on Android
The way you disable alarms on Android varies by the phone model you have. Here, we’ll cover the steps for Google’s Clock app and Samsung’s Clock app.
Disable Alarms in Google’s Clock App
If your phone uses Google’s official Clock app, launch that app on your phone. In the app’s bottom bar, tap “Alarm.”
On the “Alarm” page, find the alarm to disable. Then, in that alarm’s bottom-right corner, toggle off the switch.
The switch is now grayed out, indicating the alarm is disabled.
If you’d like to remove an alarm, tap that alarm on the list. Then, in the expanded menu, choose “Delete.”
Your chosen alarm is now gone from your Clock app.
Deactivate Alarms in Samsung’s Clock App
To turn off alarms on a Samsung phone, launch your phone’s stock Clock app. In the app’s bottom bar, tap “Alarm.”
On the following page, next to the alarm you want to turn off, switch off the toggle. Your alarm is now disabled.
To remove an alarm, tap the three dots at the top of the alarm list. Choose “Edit.”
You can now select the alarm(s) to delete. Tap the circle icon beside an alarm to select it.
Once you’ve chosen your alarm(s) to delete, at the bottom, tap “Delete.”
Note: If you turn off an alarm, you can re-enable it whenever you want. However, if you choose to delete an alarm, you’ll have to re-create that alarm to use it again.
Turn Off or Delete Alarms on iPhone
Disabling alarms on your iPhone is easy too. To start, launch the Clock app on your iPhone.
In the Clock app’s bottom bar, tap “Alarm.”
On the “Alarm” page, next to the alarm you want to disable, toggle off the switch.
To delete an alarm, tap “Edit” in your screen’s top-left corner.
Tap the “-” (minus) sign next to the alarm you want to delete. Then, choose “Delete.”
When you’re done, in your screen’s top-left corner, select “Done.”
And that’s it. Your phone’s alarms won’t disturb your rest anymore. Happy sleeping!
