How do I change the sound of my alarm on my google home speaker?

I am not sure what specific kind it is, but it is the large google home with a speaker base, white top, with almost a lipstick angle? Idk if that helped at all. Basically, I’m an insanely deep sleeper and I have all of my alarms on my google home to go off at 100% volume, but the alarm sound is still too normal to wake me up. I have sleep issues and have take incredibly unnecessary measures to most people for me to wake up. Typically, I use the classic alarm sound on my iPhone for example. I haven’t found a way to change the sound of my alarm, but I need to desperately because it simply isn’t jarring enough to pull me out of my deep sleep. Please help. I’ve been late way too many times because of this. There isn’t a screen on my display, the only touch thing is the volume and mute controls on the top and the mute button on the bottom. I’m lost.

Hi Ur_daddy,

 

Thanks for reaching out and for providing detailed information on your issue — these are of great help! If you are in the US, you can set your favorite music as an alarm. Select a song, artist, genre or playlist from your default music service in the Google Home app. You can also set fun alarms from some of your favorite characters for an entertaining and easy way to get your day started. Check the sample commands below.

 

 Say "Ok Google" or “Hey Google,” then:

 

"Set <radio station> radio alarm for 6 AM tomorrow."

"Set <song or artist> music alarm for 7 AM Monday."

 

Check this helpful link for more information.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Regards,

Juni
