    I want a roulette option. When I have a nine minute snooze and I know it, I’m just tired and anxious waiting for it. If I don’t know how long it’s going to be I won’t stress over it. Go back to sleep and hope for the best. Set a 25min max so I can still panic shower my way into being on time.

      You could also set your alarm 25 minutes later (or whenever you need to) and waking up at that time without snoozing it. The sleep quality would probably be even a lot better than the one from the snoozeroulette. Snoozing just makes you wake-up earlier than you should.

    Remember when Google hired brilliant, talented engineers to build quality products?

    Those were the days.

      Was that ever a thing? The original Gmail design was pretty terrible. Then when they overhauled the design, and unified it with other Google product designs there was uproar. People rarely seem satisfied with UI design

        Yeah because they didn’t hire designers. Just engineers.

        Most engineers think that something is extravagant if it contains colours other than grey and dull blue. Also what even is tab indexing?

        Mine isn’t like that. Google clock on pixel 7 Pro.

        Edit: mines like that. It’s the snooze time you set in settings that apply to all alarms.

        Honestly makes sense to do it this way. Pick your exact time limited to 30 minutes. Set it once and forget it.

        Op is just farming for outrage.

          It’s snooze length. If you’re setting a snooze length more than 30 minutes you should probably just set a new alarm

              Are you mistaking this for a timer? This is a snooze length. You would likely want your snooze length from 5-30 minutes. This is bad UI design.

                This is in the Google Clock settings. It’s the snooze length that is buried deep down, that you’re meant to set once, and it applies to all of your alarms.

                I know what it is.

                You’re acting like it’s something you need to do every time you set an alarm. That’s not true, and until you were called out for it, you kept all of your replies vague to make it seem like it’s something you had to do often.

                I didn’t even know the UI existed until I went looking, since you ignored my other comment asking which app this was.

                  Bad UI design is bad UI design. It doesn’t matter how often you visit it.
