A computer-implemented method includes receiving a request. The request is for an alarm. The alarm is emitted from a mobile device. The mobile device is powered by a battery. The battery has a battery level. The method includes receiving a battery level threshold. The method is responsive to the battery level being below the battery level threshold. The method includes identifying an alternative alarm device. The alternative alarm device is enabled with an electronic control channel. The method includes generating an alternative alarm. The method includes sending the alternative alarm to the alternative alarm device via the electronic control channel.

The disclosure is directed towards systems and methods for dimming an alarm clock with three displays. An alarm clock can include three displays each positioned on a different side of the alarm clock to allow the alarm clock to be read from different vantage points. In some implementations, the alarm clock can include a front display, a right side display, and a left side display. Each display can have multiple brightness settings. Each display also can have a respective dimming button to allow a user to select a desired brightness level. In some implementations, the dimming button for the front display can serve as a master dimming button by controlling the brightness of all three of the displays, while the right side dimming button and the left side dimming button control only the brightness setting for the right side display and the left side display, respectively.

Provided is a method of operating an electronic apparatus, an electronic apparatus, and a storage medium. The method of operating a first electronic apparatus includes: acquiring alarm clock setting information of at least one alarm clock from at least one second electronic apparatus; determining, based on the alarm clock setting information, an alarm sound playing direction corresponding to each alarm clock of the at least one alarm clock; and for each alarm clock of the at least one alarm clock, playing an alarm sound corresponding to the alarm clock toward the alarm sound playing direction corresponding to the alarm clock.

An alarm clock system that includes: a clock transmitter; and at least one earpiece for use within an ear of an user, wherein said at least one earpiece receives signals from the clock transmitter and said at least one earpiece includes an outer mold that secures a speaker within a canal of the earpiece and a flush outer surface, where the flush outer surface remains flush in an ear opening of the user. In one particular embodiment, the at least one earpiece emits a sound into the ear of the user upon receipt of a signal from the clock transmitter. In another exemplary embodiment, the at least one earpiece emits vibration upon receipt of a signal from the clock transmitter. The clock transmitter transmits at least one of a RF signal and a Bluetooth signal to the at least one earpiece.

A method and an apparatus for easily setting a snooze interval in a mobile device are provided. In the method, the mobile device receives an event for setting a snooze function, outputs, when receiving the event, a plurality of display regions respectively corresponding to a plurality of snooze intervals, and selects one display region of the plurality display regions. Then the mobile device sets the snooze function with a specific snooze interval corresponding to the selected one display region.

Embodiments of the present application relate to a method and apparatus for setting an alarm clock. The method includes receiving an input directed at a time-display area on a display screen of a device, adjusting time information displayed on the display screen according to the input, and setting an alarm clock according to the adjusted time information.

A wake-up alarm with occupant-sensing apparatus attached to a bed which is configured via wireless protocol with a personal computing device of the occupant of the bed. During an alarm period, defined by a turn-on time and turn-off time, the alarm will emit an alarm sound when an occupant is detected in the bed. During the alarm period, the alarm cannot be disabled.

Disclosed is a method of outputting an alarm, the method being performed by an electronic device, the method including receiving a request for setting a schedule, from at least one user, storing identification information and schedule execution information on the at least one user, and tracking a target user of the schedule. If an alarm execution time included in the schedule execution information comes, the method further includes providing an alarm related to the schedule to the target user in a specific manner.

Methods and apparatuses are provided for setting alarm times in the field of electronics. The method includes: acquiring a target smart scene of a home device, where the target smart scene indicates a performance of a target operation at a triggering time; acquiring the triggering time from the target smart scene; and setting an alarm time based on the triggering time. With the present disclosure, after setting the target smart scene, a user corresponding to a terminal can set the alarm time without exiting a smart home application for the target smart scene.
