API Overview

createAlarm

Create a native OS alarm using the platform clock app. On Android this uses the Alarm Clock intent; on iOS this uses AlarmKit if available (iOS 16+).

import { CapgoAlarm } from '@capgo/capacitor-alarm';

const result = await CapgoAlarm.createAlarm({
  hour: 7,
  minute: 30,
  label: 'Wake up',
  skipUi: false,
  vibrate: true
});
console.log('Alarm created:', result.success);

openAlarms

Open the platform’s native alarm list UI, if available.

import { CapgoAlarm } from '@capgo/capacitor-alarm';

const result = await CapgoAlarm.openAlarms();
if (result.success) {
  console.log('Alarms UI opened');
}

getOSInfo

Get information about the OS and capabilities.

import { CapgoAlarm } from '@capgo/capacitor-alarm';

const info = await CapgoAlarm.getOSInfo();
console.log('Platform:', info.platform);
console.log('Supports native alarms:', info.supportsNativeAlarms);
if (info.platform === 'android') {
  console.log('Can schedule exact alarms:', info.canScheduleExactAlarms);
}

requestPermissions

Request relevant permissions for alarm usage on the platform. On Android, may route to settings for exact alarms.

import { CapgoAlarm } from '@capgo/capacitor-alarm';

const result = await CapgoAlarm.requestPermissions({ exactAlarm: true });
if (result.granted) {
  console.log('Permissions granted');
} else {
  console.log('Permissions denied');
}

checkPermissions

Check the current permission state for native alarm access without triggering UI. On iOS this reports AlarmKit readiness; on Android it reports capability details.

import { CapgoAlarm } from '@capgo/capacitor-alarm';

const status = await CapgoAlarm.checkPermissions();
console.log('AlarmKit allowed?', status.details?.alarmKit);

getAlarms

Get a list of alarms scheduled by this app. On iOS 26+, returns alarms from AlarmKit. On Android, this is not supported as the system does not provide an API to query alarms.

import { CapgoAlarm } from '@capgo/capacitor-alarm';

const { alarms } = await CapgoAlarm.getAlarms();
console.log('Scheduled alarms:', alarms);
alarms.forEach(alarm => {
  console.log(`Alarm ${alarm.id}: ${alarm.hour}:${alarm.minute} - ${alarm.label}`);
});
