So I was thinking.. Wouldnt it be awesome if there was a checkbox within google calendar which disables the stock Android alarm?

I have my alarm clock set 24/7 on my phone, so it goes off during the week and is silent in the weekends. But when I have a day off work, I usually do not need to get out of bed the same time as I would on a workday.

Usually I have a Reminder in my calendar for a day off since most of the times it means I have some kind of appointment.

It would be great if I could just check a box while setting this appointment. This way I wont forget to enable my alarm for the day after, since I didnt need to disable it in the first place. This prevents me from being late the next day, yet it lets me sleep in on the day of my appointment.

I hope I have made my random thought clear for you guys. I'd like to hear some feedback on my idea why it would be a bad or good idea. I would definitly use it if the option excisted (if it already excists, can you show me where or how?)

Sorry if there are typos, my keyboard is still set to my native language.
