Title: Alarm confirmation now saying time until alarm
Post by: Mikee on May 19, 2018, 11:43:56 am

In the past, when setting an alarm - say 10:00AM, Alexa would simply say "Alarm set for 10:00AM.

Lately, Alexa now says "Alarm set for 10:00AM, 5 hours and 3 minutes from now"  I do not want to know how many hours/minutes until my alarm, just the alarm time.

Can this be changed?

Thank in advance and apologies if this topic has been repeated.

Seems to be a new feature, and I can’t see an option to disable it. It’s probably to avoid confusion when using a 12 hour clock.
