Problem with alerts
Overall Rating:




2.4 out of 5

Experience: 24 Days
Pros: Some alerts work. On 1/28/09 11 events for alerts were programmed. 9 worked.Cons: Some don't. The alert for Event 4 did not work. The alert for Event 6 is uncertain because I was separated from my phone. More alerts failed earlier both for me and my plan partner, but I did not record them. I thought I just needed more practice with the settings.Summary: Today, 1/31/09, the alert for Event 1 did not work.
The settings below are as recorded on View, with "Event 1" substituting for my personal Event.
1. 04:45 am
Event 1
2. 1/17/2009 04:45A
1/17/2009 05:00A [The end time was actually O5:20, but I think this is irrelevant for alert purposes.]
3. Recurrence
Weekly [entered two Saturdays ago]
4. Alert
Gutta Tone
5. Reminder
Once ["Every 2 minutes" has never worked, so I switched to "Once."]
6. Alert Time
10 minutes before
7. Save
The alerts for Events 2, 3, and 4 this morning, programmed with essentially the same steps as above, also failed. The volume level for the alerts is not the cause.
This summary does not preserve the format of settings as it appears on the phone and which my submission imitates.
