  • Google Assistant and Gemini now let you set alarms more than 24 hours in advance.
  • Previously, the AI chatbots showed an error when asked to do so, and users had to manually set the alarm in the Clock app.

Although Google Assistant and Gemini make it fairly easy to set alarms, the AI chatbots did not let you set an alarm for more than 24 hours in the future. This has been a pain point for users for quite some time, but Google has finally addressed it.

Google Assistant and Gemini previously showed an error when asked to set an alarm more than 24 hours in advance. It stated, “Sorry I can’t set an alarm on this device more than 24 hours before they’re supposed to go off.” Users either had to configure the alarm manually in the Clock app or set a recurring alarm using the chatbots to overcome this issue. That’s no longer the case, according to a recent X post from tech expert Artem Russakovskii.
