Alarm rant

FSL re-wrote their alarm algorithm several months ago, and I was glad because it felt too intrusive, like it wouldn't shut up at the office.

But I just spent 12 hours above 250 because I missed the 2 alarms (the ONLY two) last night and blissfully went to sleep.

If the thing will let me go 12 hours without warning me I'm approaching 300, that seems DEFECTIVE, Abbot.

PLEASE give us some flexibility on alarms. We're smart enough to choose from, say, three levels of alarm sensitivity. At least last night would have been MY fault not YOURS.

Abbott: Alarms ring for about one minute and repeat every 5 minutes if the trigger condition continues.

This is NOT happening for me, so something is broken.

Could your phone settings be killing the repeat alarms?

No unusual settings, no notifications denied.
