Help Voice control for snooze

I've looked through every menu and can't find where to enable voice control for snooze. Was this feature removed for the S5?

I've been looking for the same feature. Looks like they removed it. Plus I'm missing the desk clock feature from the S3. I've been using Daydream mode instead but really loved the old S3 mode.

Guess I'll have to get a replacement app to do it. Anyone with some good suggestions?

I'm annoyed by the removal of this feature as well. Been using it for a year and nearly the best feature of the S4. Spent a good 30 seconds yelling Snooze this morning to no avail.

If anyone hears any news or finds a replacement program if they can post on here so the masses are updated I'm sure we'd all be appreciative.

I can't belive that Samsung took off the voice control of alarm.

I have been using a lot the snooze voice command. We have to find a have to enable it on s5.

I tried a app called "voice snooze alarm", but it isn't so good like the default voice alarm of s4. I really wanna know what happen with this feature.

Thanks

Ah just install this app and all of ya'll will be happy as baby chicks under a heat lamp.

Thanks for the recommendation. Tried it and didn't care for it. It does not support voice dismiss/snooze. It also seemed kind of buggy. When creating or changing alarms it would take a while for the changes to show up.

I might try this one: WakeVoice

Will post back with results.

I tried WakeVoice for the first time this morning and after being initially frustrated it seems like it might be a good fit.

It isn't as responsive to voice commands as the Galaxy S4 stock alarm - it looks like you need to say snooze and wait a couple seconds for it to acknowledge and stop the alarm. I think I confused it by yelling snooze, snooze, snooze in quick succession :D

Also as an Aussie it may take a few days for me to tailor exactly how I say snooze so the device recognises it. Unfortunately neither the Samsung nor Google voice recognition software seems to do a very good job of understanding the Aussie accent :(

I'll update in the next couple of days with results

I only installed it last night as well. Unfortunately, I don't think it's your accent. I had a hell of a time getting it to respond to my voice as well. I'm not ready to give up though. I'll keep playing with it and report back.

A few troubles this morning but I think I found if I exaggerated the oooo in snooooze it worked better. It supports custom snooze commands so if it continues to annoy me I might just change the command to f&*k off!! That will free me of any residual early wake-up anger and I can start the day happy :)

Hey everyone!

I'm the creator of Voice Snooze Alarm, since the removal of the interstitial add which was annoying according to the feedback, it has increased in users.

Is my app not suitable for your requirements? What would yo do to improve it? Haven't tried the voice snooze from the S4 but I'd be willing to beat it.

Feedback is always welcome. Thank you.
