Help with calendar alarm/snooze

[JesseKnows]

The native snooze in the Valiant is sub-helpful: if I did not attend to it, it does not buzz again. I only found one way to get a second snooze, which is to wake the phone and go to the calendar item and set another snooze.

Before the Valiant I used a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4G (Android 2.3). It came with great calendar alarm snoozing facility, which I believe is the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bitfire.development.calendarsnooze (from memory, Id' say the screen shots look identical). The Samsung kept buzzing if ignored.

I installed this app on the Valiant, and it seems to do nothing. I never saw any alert from it, even after a reinstall and some poking into the settings.
I sent an email to the app maker and did not receive a reply. Their app store entry is 2 years old.

Any thoughts? I need the calendar to notify more than once on upcoming events.

Are you saying if you 'snooze' an active alarm, it never buzzes again?

Mine does not act that way.

I use the Clock app it came with. If I hit snooze as the alarm is sounding, it silences the alarm for 10 minutes.

I use the calendar app to set alarms more than a week in advance. I think the calendar app 'snooze' is what your complaint is about (personal experience). To get around it, I just set it to remind me multiple times.

Thank you for the reply. Here is another attempt to explain:
I use the calendar app to get appointments from my corporate Outlook system.
Once an appointment alerts me, I get the vibrate/tone on the phone. If I do nothing at this point, the phone does nothing. I do not get an additional vibrate or tone unless I turn the phone on and communicate with the app.
I want (and previously had) an automatic snooze. If I ignore the alert I want it to nudge me.
