Hi all,

I am trying to create a shortcut that will ask for a time input then use that to edit 4 already created alarms with 10 minute intervals (eg. if you say 8:00 edit alarm 1 to 8:00, alarm 2 to 8:10, alarm 3 to 8:20 and alarm 4 to 8:30) - it seems so easy to create new alarms is it really not possible to edit existing ones?

You might ask why not just have new alarms created? 1) becuase I have an automation set up based on the 3rd alarm (open curtains and start radio), 2) because I do not want to have a million alarms created and 3) because I want the alarms to stay on every monday-friday, with the shortcut just serving to move around the wakeup time.
I welcome any alternative ways of solving this problem, my first foray was one big automation doing it all unfortunately the 'wait' counter stalls out if counting more than 170 seconds in the background, and the solution was not roboust enough for a critical waking solution :/
