I have a samsung galaxy s22 phone with android. I had a wear OS device that I paired with the phone but cannot now remember the passcode. Sometime around the time I paired my wear OS device and maybe due to an app I had installed on that device, my android now beeps on the hour, every hour, all hours of the day and night. It is a little annoying and it causes me to turn off my notifications and notification bell so that I am not constantly interrupted. Today it started beeping twice on the hour. I fear I may need to do a factory reset on the phone because i cannot stop this beeping. I have roughly 700 apps on my phone but few have notifications enabled. When I get a beep on the hour there is no notification, just the beep. My alarms are all disabled.
Is there a way I can stop this without wiping everything on my phone and starting from scratch with a factory reset? I have factory reset my wearos device and re-paired it with my phone but the hourly beeps continue.
I just found the notification history and I guess it was already turned on. I’ve checked the notifications and I’m not seeing anything that would indicate an hourly beep. I guess I’ll keep my sounds on and check notification history when I see it.
I’ve used tasker before, but I’m a little unsure how it would be used here. Maybe something to turn off all system sounds at a minute before the hour then turn on all system sounds a minute after the hour?
