<![CDATA[MMM-AlarmClock popup not appearing when alarm goes off]]>Hi, I’m having a problem with MMM-AlarmClock where the popup (to dismiss the alarm) isn’t appearing when the alarm goes off.

This was working fine for me, and then I upgraded to the latest Raspbian, MagicMirror, and MMM-AlarmClock and the popup stopped appearing. I posted on the module’s github, but got no responses: https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-AlarmClock/issues/48

My (test) configuration is:

    modules: [
	{
	    module: 'MMM-AlarmClock',
	    position: 'middle_center',
	    config: {
		alarms: [
		    { 
			time: "11:19", 
			days: [0,1,2,3,4,5,6], 
			sound: 'alarm.mp3', 
			title: "title", 
			message: "message", 
		    },
		],
		touch: true, 
		popup: true,
	    }
	},
    ]

I’m using a Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 1.2 with Pi 7-inch Touchscreen running Raspbian 12 (bookworm). My node version is 20.15.0, my MagicMirror version is v2.28.0 and the MMM-AlarmClock version is 2.0.2.

Any help/advice would be appreciated.

In my case, it turned out to be a config issue with the notification settings in the module. Try checking if the showPopup option is enabled and that you don’t have another module overlapping it on the screen.

Also, while testing your setup, you can use something like onlinealarm.co
to verify your alarm times are correct before syncing it with MagicMirror — makes debugging way easier.
