turns out on the google clock if you dont let the animation finish before pressing okay itll choose whatever time the minute hand happens to land on, so you can very easily accidentally set your alarm almost an hour after you meant to. whoever implemented this deserves to be shot

really see tin the video, but yeah
looks buggy. Did you report this to
#AOSP maybe?
(Also FYI, there is a quite handy
screencast feature included in
newer Android versions
nowadays, including an optional
tapping indicator.)

in reply to alice • • •they probably just want users yelling at google assistant for this
there's a different problem with that. i live in a country with 24-hour time. so, when i say "wake me up at 12:00", it should set an alarm on 12:00, right?
wrong! if im doing this before midnight, the alarm will ring AT midnight, because the assistant thought it will be a good idea to wake me up at 12:00 AM, in a 24-hour time scheme!

I love these stupid little bugs that show you exactly how something was implemented.

in reply to alice • •@alice @Toast oh I can see it exactly...
They would have done it that way probably to cut corners on code work when creating the animation, and nobody thought to try speed running it.

in reply to alice • • •everything about this time-selection method deserves some very rude words towards their general direction. But at least it's better than app which have to numeric inputs, so you have to click up to 30 times depending on direction.
Just let me input it with the bloody virtual keyboard.

in reply to alice • • •This is certainly not reminiscent of a famous and tragic example in the world of software development that usually is teached in each related class, not at all.
