The problem is, when I was discussing exactly this topic with some of my friends (not working for Canonical), they didn't seem to care about it. Some of them told me "if you want a reliable alarm you don't use a phone, you use a proper alarm". So, yeah...some people are not used to having a reliable alarm phone anymore, so they don't even expect that feature to be available, and this gives it a lower priority on roadmaps :( (by the way, those are my own opinions) > Here's some bugs I reported related to this: > > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1420169 > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1317860 > > While the reliability of Nokia phones probably could only be achieved by > adding a micro-system, just bootet in case the alarm should ring in a > low battery condition, fixes for the above two would probably get us > very close to a good solution I'd say. > > Br, > Michael > > > -- > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > >
