Death Clock, an AI-powered longevity app launched in 2024, estimates users' life expectancy based on lifestyle data and now offers optional biomarker blood panels for an additional fee. A basic panel costs $69 and checks markers like cholesterol, blood sugar, inflammation and vitamin D, while a fuller set of nine additional tests covering hormones, micronutrients and thyroid function costs $780. The writer tried the app and received a predicted death date in 2060 at age 74.

A Pixel owner on Reddit reported two consecutive morning alarms failing to sound, instead showing a notification that the alarm was 'automatically silenced' after its set duration. The user said they made no settings changes and missed important work obligations as a result. Several other Pixel users in the thread described similar experiences, and Google has said it is looking into the issue.

A quirk in Apple's Clock app has resurfaced online: rapidly scrolling the hour and minute wheels when setting an alarm hits a hard stop at 4:39 (16:39 in 24-hour format), rather than scrolling infinitely. The behavior doesn't restrict users from actually setting an alarm for any time; it only affects how far the scroll wheel spins before snapping to an end.

Users continue reporting that alarms on Google Pixel phones fail to sound, with the Clock app displaying a message that the alarm 'didn't fire for an unknown reason.' The problem has been documented since at least 2021, and though Google previously said it addressed the issue, new reports keep surfacing, including one case where an overheated device blocked the alarm and another where alarms fired silently despite the phone not being on silent mode.

Chrono is a free, open-source Android alarm and clock app that offers more customization than Google's or Samsung's default Clock apps, including dark mode, Material styling, alarm tagging, and time-of-day icons. It isn't listed on the Google Play Store, so users must sideload it manually to install and update it.
