Android device have complex settings and many of them can interfere with alarm functions.<\/p>\n<p>The standard alarm starts 20 minutes before your configured wake-up time for the light effect. It starts with a black screen which may be hard to distinguish from an display switched off. The sound will only start to rise after 20 minutes and may be hearable 2 minutes after wake-up time only. Keep this in mind when you are testing your alarms.<\/p>\n<p>Also, a test alarm scheduled 10 minutes in the future will be scheduled for the next day because the 20 minutes pre-light phase has already passed. Use at least 25 minutes in the future for test alarms.<\/p>\n<p>In the majority of cases your device manufacturer is suppressing apps (including alarm apps) in order to extend battery runtime.

Also check in the settings that \u201cControl system volume\u201d is enabled otherwise the sound will not be hearable if you put the system volume to zero.<br \/>\nThe alarm might be suppressed by your do not disturb mode. If you are using a \u201edo not disturb\u201c mode in the time where the alarm should fire be sure to set it either to \u201cAlarms only\u201d or add an exception for the app in Android settings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-custom-fields'>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-permalink'>\n\t\n\t<a href='https:\/\/changemystyle.com\/gentlewakeup\/ufaqs\/permissions\/?Display_FAQ=396'>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t <div class='ewd-ufaq-permalink-image'><\/div> \t\n\t<\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><div  class=\"ewd-ufaq-faq-div ewd-ufaq-faq-column-count-one ewd-ufaq-faq-responsive-columns- ewd-ufaq-faq-display-style-one ewd-ufaq-can-be-toggled\" id='ewd-ufaq-post-420-p4np9TUsGR' data-post_id='420'>\n\n\t\t\n\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-title ewd-ufaq-faq-toggle'>\n\t\n\t<a class='ewd-ufaq-post-margin'  href='#' role=\"button\">\n\n\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-post-margin-symbol ewd-ufaq-square'>\n\t\t\t<span >a<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-title-text'>\n\n\t\t\t<h4>\n\t\t\t\tThe flashlight does not point into my direction\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-clear'><\/div>\n\n\t<\/a>\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-body ewd-ufaq-hidden' >\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-post-margin ewd-ufaq-faq-post'>\n\t<p>Even if the flashlight only lights your wall your body may still prepare for wakeup.

Best is to have opaque curtains, then even the light from a smart phone will be enough to light up the room.\u00a0 With blackout curtains the light effect even works in the summer time. Waking up by light is the most natural method of waking up. Many people have unlearned this method so it might take some days before it will work. Even if you do not wake up by it your body may still prepare for wakeup. Your eyes can detect morning light even when they are closed. Especially in the winter time and when it is really dark in your room in the morning. Always use a sound wakeup as a backup a few minutes later but let the body prepare for wakeup only by light.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-custom-fields'>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-permalink'>\n\t\n\t<a href='https:\/\/changemystyle.com\/gentlewakeup\/ufaqs\/permissions\/?Display_FAQ=419'>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t <div class='ewd-ufaq-permalink-image'><\/div> \t\n\t<\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><div  class=\"ewd-ufaq-faq-div ewd-ufaq-faq-column-count-one ewd-ufaq-faq-responsive-columns- ewd-ufaq-faq-display-style-one ewd-ufaq-can-be-toggled\" id='ewd-ufaq-post-414-8kMc8v4ktp' data-post_id='414'>\n\n\t\t\n\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-title ewd-ufaq-faq-toggle'>\n\t\n\t<a class='ewd-ufaq-post-margin'  href='#' role=\"button\">\n\n\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-post-margin-symbol ewd-ufaq-square'>\n\t\t\t<span >a<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-title-text'>\n\n\t\t\t<h4>\n\t\t\t\tThe screen of the night clock is too bright at night\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-clear'><\/div>\n\n\t<\/a>\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-faq-body ewd-ufaq-hidden' >\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='ewd-ufaq-post-margin ewd-ufaq-faq-post'>\n\t<p>If your device has a LCD display than you will not get a complete dark screen even if nothing is displayed on the screen while it is still on.
