Display current time with alarm time when alarm snoozes
Last modified: 2011-01-14 00:07:42 UTC
It is observed that if an Alarm on the Squeezebox Radio activates and then that Alarm is snoozed that the Radio will continue to display the Alarm time on each subsequent alarm activation. The preferred behavior for many would be if the Alarm displayed both the Alarm time and the actual current time. This way a user can determine the actual time when an Alarm sounds, even if it has been snoozing, and make a determination on whether they can snooze some more or must wake up and disable the alarm.
Just to add an additional comment to this, yes the alarm does show current time when it goes off, just doesn't show what time alarm was originally set for. The alarm display is also very hard to read from any distance away. It might be helpful if this screen was modified in some way so that the current time and alarm time were displayed in the largest screen size possible. Currently the snooze/alarm-off section takes up most of the screen and at least for me, I can't read the time from the radio sitting on my night stand a meter away when the alarm is active.
