iOS 5 Alarm Snooze

[Futhark]

I'm loving the new notifications in iOS 5 but don't like that the Alarm shows up in it with a very tiny SNOOZE button that i struggle to see with my still half asleep eyes at 4:30am in the morning for work.

I did see you can change notifications to (None / Banners / Alerts) but I can't see Alarm listed anywhere to change it to an Alert like it used to be in all earlier iOS versions. This for me was a much easier SNOOZE button to see when sleepy.

you could just use the sleep/wake button on the top of the phone for snooze instead! i've always used that as easy to find without opening your eyes!

It's Steve's way of getting you snoozers out of bed faster.

Yes! The volume buttons always work. That's what makes me snooze a few more times than I should do in the morning

You still get the old fashioned pop-up if the display is on. I use Night Stand HD on my iPhone that is docked at my bedside table. Using the iPhone's alarm, I still get the same pop-up that I always have.

That's great news for chronic snoozers like myself.

for some reason all my alarms freeze up in the morning.. maybe cause i have them set for every 15 minutes? hopefully the new way will make them not freeze

But I like pressing the snooze button for an hour and a half!

Still smaller than it used to be! I always wished that they would just make the whole screen a Snooze button, because my morning normally has me waking up, rolling over and slapping my phone until the alarm turns off. Now I have to open my eyes! Apple, trying to get me to work on time, curse them!

whew, that's incredibly ugly, if you ask me

I wish there was a way to configure snooze time too.

It's 10 minutes now, what if I want it to be 5 or 20 minutes?

It's actually 9 minutes.

9 minutes is a standard amongst alarm clocks apparently. I can't remember the reasoning behind it but on a device like the iPhone this should be customisable !!!
