Also this morning the alarm ringed 10 minutes later (!)

Could it be that you’re accidentally snoozing the alarm via the touchscreen? It has been discussed a few times on the forum how it is too easy to dismiss or snooze an alarm because the touchscreen activates when an alarm goes off. I’ve done this many times and have even witnessed an alarm being dismissed because the watch face inadvertently touched my bed sheets (maybe that’s fabric specific?).

Anyway, my preference would be to require a button push to dismiss alarms.

Any hint to delete it ?

I have no Idea. My watch is turned off all the time between activities and I only tried out the sleep logging a week or so at the beginning. Disabling sleep tracking in the watch should take care of future falsehoods for you, but unless there is an option to edit already registered sleep downwards to near zero, elimination can prove hard - seem to remember previous postings about not being able to delete, but don’t quote me on it.

I know, but I was already awake the last two times and didn’t hear any ring… while it clearly ringed 10 minutes after, until I dismissed the alarm… very strage

yes, it would be the best choice

@Stefano-M64 I’ve tried to prolong DND over the alarm time because it was the only diff with you but it still works w/o hiccups. I would try to delete all alarms and set them up again

@snow thanks for chercking!
this morning I understood the problem: when I sleep with my arm bent and the wrist close to my head I can easily hear the alarm, while if the arm is lying along the body, under the duvet, I cannot. Things is worsen by the fact that the alarm auto-dismiss after 30 seconds, which is odd to me for an alarm clock.
To be sure to wake up I should always have the vibration on, but in this case if the wrist is close to my head the waking up is quite “harsh” (that’s why I turned it off weeks ago).
A solution could be to have an alarm that starts ringing for example for 10 seconds and after that it starts also vibrating (if the vibration is on) for the remaining 20 sec.
For the moment I will use again the alarm of my smartphone that is more configurable and gives a more comfortable wake up.

@Danny-poleg This is the second time I’ve encountered this battery drain problem. It first appeared after the new firmware update but was resolved by a soft reset. Yesterday, after charging my V2, it lost 9% in just 12 hours (normal consumption is 3-4%). I’ve noticed a pattern: it occurs whenever the charge level hangs at 99% and won’t hit 100%. After a soft reset, the display correctly jumps to 100%.

@Stefano-M64 do you live alone? I always only use the vibration to keep my family asleep.
The alarm is independent of dnd.

Not sure if this was already mentioned, but I lost half of my custom activity modes. It seems that all my summer sports were lost (the update happened in winter, so all recent sports were preserved).

Here, it might be worth mentioning the lack of backup option for the watch.

Why the magnetic declination compass value couldn’t be downloaded automatically while syncing the watch?
I’ll also appreciate UV index value in weather widget and now, if we have units section in settings, we could get km/h option for wind speed.

@HonzaS
I was just about to write a comment on this, and this exchange came up. The wind unit km/h can be added to the “support mixed unit systems” feature.
I wrote about this before. We don’t use m/h.

thanks for the replay, at the end both ring only and vibration only can be unpleasant if the hand is close to the head while still sleeping, I will use the watch alarm only during daytime and outdoor activities, smartphone is more pleasant for wake up
