Shortcuts for adding and removing Alarms

With Shortcuts in iOS, I can create Alarms automatically.

I tell it what time I have to be in the lobby, and it sets three alarms for me.

  • 60 prior - wake up
  • 45 prior - get ready
  • 10 prior - head downstairs.


VERY COOL! Save me a lot of time (and error, since I don't have to calculate 45 prior to 7:26 in my head).


One big problem...

Automation allow you to create an alarm, but does not give us a way to remove it later.

After a month, I might have 60 or more alarms.


I've been a casual programmer for a few decades. I have to say, I can't remember ever having a situation where a tool does not let me modify or remove something created by that same tool.


I'm looking for a way to delete the Alarms (labeled "EARLY, WAKE, and GO) that I create each day.

Or better yet, is there simply a way to modify the time of each of these Alarms using Automator?


Any thoughts?



Note: I know I can delete all alarms using Siri, but I think that's a bad idea for two reasons.

    1. Some people have alarms they need every day (for things such as taking pills).
    2. I never trust Siri to consistently interpret what I ask, so using the word "delete" with her is asking for trouble.
