ABSTRACT:
A method for providing a progressive alarm function in a mobile terminal is provided. In an alarm setting mode, an initial alarm time input by the user is set as an alarm time of the terminal and a unit time for changing the alarm time is set. After an alarm is output at the set alarm time, it is checked to determine whether a specific key is pressed within a predetermined time. If the specific key is pressed, the alarm time is extended by the unit time. The progressive alarm function allows the user to optionally control alarm setting of the terminal to continually change the alarm time. The alarm time is not fixed but instead the user can continually extend the alarm time by pressing the specific key without the trouble of performing a number of key operations to change the alarm time in the alarm setting menu.
