Alexa Echo Dot (3rd Gen) - Use as alarm clock with loud sound.

Futureized

High-Frequency
Innovator
I want to use my device as an alarm clock with sound, setup custom alarms whenever required (will be used by child)
No fixed alarm, but as child needs, to remind about tutions, online sessions, etc.
Device can be controlled from sound level 1 (very low) to level 10 (very high)

Alexa is connected/linked via my Amazon Main account. I dont want anyone to use my mobile to configure alarms again and again, as I am out for work entire day.
I have attached photos of device. (taken from web)

At present alarm works, but only the light glows in circle (without any sounds)
Can we also setup custom alarm sound in this device ?

You can easily set up "custom alarms" - meaning tell alexa to either "remind me at XXX time to do YYY" it will speak to you remind you twice.

Or you can set actually alarms (you can choose different alarm tunes but its common for all) by saying "alexa wake me up at XXX time" but it just rings the tune does not speak the reason for the alarm.

This is what I do - havent explored in more detail for more custom options and detailed alarm messages...

I was having issue big with low sound (fixed it within alexa app, now alarm is quite high)
But cannot change alarm sound/tune (this is still stock tune)
Want to customize those if possible.

Getting options to customize tune on alexa app on android but this tune wont replicate to device.
