Since reporting this I've read the design guidelines. I note that the "turn off" button is on the right and green, and the "snooze" button is on the left and white.
I suggest that maybe this is backwards. Turning off the alarm is essentially deleting this instances of it and is potentially dangerous, and so perhaps should be red and on the left? The "safe" action is to snooze, so that should be default, green and on the right. However, even with that change (if you or design team agree - I admit it is subjective), the off button would still be too easy to hit, so I still think something further needs to be done to avoid user accidents. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu.

I expect the snooze button to be more easily available, and for the "turn off" button to be made harder to activate - for example with a slide or something. Other phones I've had have had the snooze button much bigger, or the snooze activate when the phone is turned over, or something like that, to assist with preventing accidental alarm switch off.
