The whole problem is that you can't set an alarm more than 24 hours ahead of time unless you set it to repeat. The timer also gets reset if the phone restarts or if you bump the stop button on the notification screen. Workarounds work most of the time but they set you up for problems. The artificial limitation is unnecessary and just creates problems for people like myself who have ADD.

Oneplus clock app lets you choose any date and time in the future for alarms so I would assume many other apps can do this too.

I said so elsewhere to one other, but I will reiterate that the jest came from viewing the remark outside of its proper context. I apologize for trivializing the matter.
