Alarm - shake to snooze function

Hi,

 

I've just upgraded from s7 to s10. A feature I liked and used every day was the shake to snooze function on the clock/alarm app. It doesn't appear to be available on s10? Is this correct? Or something I can enable. I'm disappointed as it's far easier than finding the small snooze button on the phone screen.

 

If it's not available,  alternative apps suggestions welcome. 

 

Cheers

@AndySowerby: I've had a look into this for you and this feature has been removed from the stock Clock/Alarm app. As an alternative you can turn the phone face down when the alarm goes off to silence it, and if you have snooze active then it will sound again at the next interval. Hope this helps.

 

Edit: As pointed out by @Wuzzybear you need to go to Settings > Advanced Features > Motions and Gestures > Easy Mute > On to make sure this feature will work

 Ok, thanks - that might work as an alternative. Good at least to have a physical action rather than pressing the button.

Flipping the phone does mute the alarm until the next cycle (5 minutes by default). But it doesn't actually activate the snooze, which means that my S2 watch on the charger next to my bed keeps vibrating the whole time unless I unlock the phone screen and swipe to snooze.  Is there any remedy for that?
