Hi folks,
Is there a way to synchronize alarms between and Gear smartwatch (actually have Gear Sport, but know there are a lot more S3 users out there) and my S7?
Ideally looking to end up with alarms sounding via my phone and vibration on the Gear Sport.
Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Cheers for now,
John
For me, alarm set on the phone (Note 4) goes off on the watch as well, ringing on the phone and vibrating on the watch (even when not worn) - which seems to be exactly what you`re after, and without any special synchronization needed.
On the other hand, alarm set on the watch seems to be active on the watch only, not sure if there`s any option/app to synchronize that one to trigger the phone, too.
That tallies with what I found last night. Would ideally like to be able to set alarms on the watch and have them sync to the phone.

I have a strange problem with my Samsung Galaxy S phone: if I set an alarm (from the clock) and i also set a calendar reminder to ring at the same time, only the reminder notification sound will play.
For reminders i have a very short sound (I don't need to phone to make a lot of noise for every reminder), so if this happens in the morning when i have to wake up, I end up sleeping though it with no problems at all.
The even stranger thing is that I have asked a few friends with the same type of phone to test this, and the alarms sounds when they do this.
Does anybody have any idea how to fix this for my phone?
I have the following software:
PDA: I9000XFJP7
PHONE: I9000XXJPP
CSC: I9000XFJP6
Any help please? I already look all the options and cant find that one. On the former Huawei watch i had that feature and i like it very much, get the phone silenced when connect with the watch.
Keep your S7 in do not disturb mode. Your watch will still vibrate (or make sounds, if that's how you set it up).
So the gear S3 doenst work like the huawei watch?? When i connect the huawei watch to my S7 it automatically mute the S7 so the only one vibrating is the watch. The Gear S3 dosnt do that???

Because Huawei is a Android Wear watch, this is not. You can mute S7 with Wear but that option is not available with S3
You could probably set up a Tasker profile to mute your phone when the watch is detected / connected with bluetooth.
On your gear manager app go to settings then notification and make sure you have show while using your phone turned on. Then you can turn you phone on silent and only have the watch vibrate
I did a search on this topic, but could not find an answer.
So I have the Gear S3 Frontier through Tmobile and I'm trying to put my phone (Tmobile Note 4) into silent mode with no sound or vibration, but when I do, the Gear S3 stops alerting me of notifications.
Does anyone have any idea how to mute the phone, but still get notifications on the watch?
Any help would be much appreciated!!
Were you able to find a solution? I'm getting frustrated that my phone still makes noise and vibrates when my watch is connected. Makes me want to go back to Android Wear.
I have a galaxy S6, putting it (the phone not the watch) into do not disturb mode works for me.
I put my phone on DND mode as well and I still get notification alerts (vibration + sound) on my s3.
In the last month or so since I've updated the watch, I've been unable to set alarms by voice. I used to be able to say "ok Google set an alarm for 1000" and a check mark would appear, and the alarm would go off as scheduled. Now I say the same thing, and the watch just vibrates, and goes back to the watch face without setting the alarm. Anyone else experience this? Any fix?
Ever since the new OneUI update I've noticed that when I set an alarm on my S10 phone, that same alarm is also automatically set on my Gear S3. When the phone and watch are within range and synced via Bluetooth, only the phone alarm rings, which is what I want and is what would previously occur. The problem after the update is that when the watch and phone are not within BT range, which is usually the case for me, BOTH the watch and the phone alarms go off at the same time. Is there any way to entirely disable the alarm feature on the Gear S3 so that I don't have 2 alarms going off at the same time? I'd even be happy if there was a way to remove the OneUI update. Thanks in advance.
