You try to be punctual, but sometimes it just doesn’t happen. Sleeping in, showing up to work late… you’ve been on an unlucky streak lately. If only there was a way to keep track of time and give you alerts whenever you need them. Silly, the answer has been on your phone this whole time. The Clock app comes pre-installed on Galaxy phones and with it, you’ll be able to beat the clock – not literally, of course.
A Digital Alarm Clock
First, let’s work on your habit of sleeping in by using the Alarm feature in the Clock app. With this, you can create up to 50 alarms (try sleeping through that!) for any time of the day. And the alarms don’t just need to be for your morning routine – set them for any time they could be useful. To add a new alarm, touch the Add button in the lower right-hand corner. Then, fill out your desired alarm settings, such as the alarm’s time, and the alarm sound. When it’s all done, touch SAVE. If needed, you can edit the alarm’s settings simply by touching it. Or, turn it off by touching the slider next to it. Hooray! You finally made it to work on time.
An International Clock
At your job, you work with people from all over the globe. It’s really cool, but you tend to get mixed up since they live in different time zones… and end up being late to conference calls. There’s no need to memorize every time zone on the planet. It’s much easier to use the World Clock in the Clock app. This app shows you the time and weather of cities in different countries! To add a city, touch Add in the lower right-hand corner. Scroll through the map or type in the name of a city – only major cities or capitals will show. Touch the circle above the city and then touch ADD. Now all of your added cities will display in the World Clock tab. Oh, no wonder you’re always late: London is 5 hours ahead!
Stop Watch
OK, let’s be honest. Sometimes you’re late because you like to take your sweet time. You have to learn to hustle! You can time how fast you walk, run, or do just about anything else, using the Stop Watch feature in clock. To begin timing, touch START and then GO! You can record laps by touching LAP or pause the timer by touching STOP. When it’s paused, touch either RESUME to continue the same recording or touch RESET to start over. Whoa, you made a lot of progress and you wouldn’t have even known without Stop Watch.
You’ve gone from a sleeping-inner to a winner! Now you’re always on time to work and all your meetings. Soon, you’ll be in the big time
