    Opening “Alarms & Clock” provides only a large blue window with the app’s icon in the middle. There is no response when clicking on any part of that window or icon. I can neither reset, uninstall nor “terminate” the app. It is, sans hyperbole, in every literal sense, useless. Even more than useless since I cannot even get rid of it.
