Watch alarms
-
Hi there,
I´ve got a brand new S5 a couple of weeks ago. Still diving through menus and functions, but want to make a question: is there only one alarm configurable in the watch? Quite strange, when even the cheapest casio or so has 5 alarms at least…
I have a 20$ smartband that you can set as many alarms/reminders as you want… -
@Meneillos Yes one alarm. But you can independently configure sunrise/sunset alarms and for variable times before/after sunset. There is also a timer that can be configured. If you need more alarms, I would get a smartwatch or use a phone.
-
Yes , very good answers… You can also carry another watch for alarm …
-
I don’t think that multiple alarms are the main purpose of a sportwatch
-
Or get rid of the 5 and go get a budget Garmin or Polar that will have more features and be able to serve as a multipurpose daily watch…
-
@zrumlow very constructive comment.
-
@isazi I mean I am being serious. If the OP just purchased the watch and the commenter states that this feature is not one commonly found in GPS watches, I am simply suggesting that OP possibly looks into returning the watch for a watch with a more robust feature set.
-
Thanks for the sunrise/sunset tips! For the rest, if your answer to the questions is “buy another watch”, I better don’t ask here anything never again. Good help, keep going…

@Meneillos please forgive the users who replied to you “buy another watch”. They are not angry at you, I am sure of that, they are just angry at Suunto and inadvertently vented their frustration on you.
-
AFAIK having only one alarm was always like that in Suunto watches since the Ambit 1.
-
as I see it, one is already too much. Using the smartphone, I don’t know what I should do with it
-
And also , you can not use stopwatch and timer in same time for suunto 9
