Thanks for the response. Is daisy chaining alarms actually better than adding all the alarms I want at once with different request codes? It seems that my app uses far less battery than before, because I switched to method 2 from above. I am not sure if there is actually less battery usage, or if it has just been moved out of my app. - Kenton -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
