[Feature Request] Create Alarms, not just notifications

[derei]

Hi, notifications are cool, interactive, informative, but actual alarms paired with them would be even better.

Perhaps a toggle for each notification to create an alarm for the same time when the notification is shown, would be much more helpful.

Why: phone may be on mute/vibration, person may be sleeping or not paying attention to the phone. An alarn would cover this.

Thanks.

I believe that's a good idea

Is there a way to implement this without recreating half an entire alarm app (basically creating a whole UI accessible when the device is locked), or is the Android API too limited for us to piggyback off the currently existing alarm app?

If this is done, ideally make it a toggle, as opposed to forcing alarm entries to be created.

It should be possible to do this without major changes to the existing app and yes, it should be a toggle. If turned on, the notification will be created with a full screen intent and the corresponding permissions have to be granted.

That would be great, in some occasions the notification sound is too weak for being heard. An alarm is better in these cases.
