II. Installation

The following instructions assume that Snips is
already configured and running on your device (e.g. a Raspberry Pi 3 from the
Snips Maker Kit with
Raspbian Stretch Lite).
SAM should
also already be set up and connected to your device and your account.

1. In the German app store add the
   app Wecker & Alarme (by domi; this) to
   your German assistant.

2. You want to have a more unique alarmclock? Take a look at the section Configuration below and
   see what you can change.

3. In the console scroll down to the parameters section.

   Now you may change some parameter values of the alarmclock.

4. If you already have the same assistant on your platform, update it with:

      sam update-assistant

   Otherwise install the assistant on the platform with the following command to
   choose it (if you have multiple assistants in your Snips console):

      sam install assistant

III. Configuration
