I love the format, the quiz, the idea! But for 50 dollars a year is not worth it. If it was free I would never use another alarm again. But I was so sad to see that I needed to pay AFTER doing the quiz and setting it up. PLEASE make it free or have a free plan.😭 **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback!

I would've liked to because I also had other people sleeping in my house and I didn't want to wake them. ### 2/5 — Alarm didn’t go off *2026-06-21, version 1.5.2* My phone was on full volume to wake up to the alarm. I had it set for 6.15 am for work. It did not go off at all. False hope. ### 1/5 — MAKE IT FREE *2026-05-08, version 1.3.4* This app makes you answer so many question just to make you pay after. At least make it free and just make some features not included for the free usurs. ### 1/5 — Didn’t work. *2026-05-07* I made sure the notifications were on and used the 3 day free trial. It never sounded, and didn’t give me the notification it said it would before the trial ended. So not only did it not work but I still got charged! Wack af. **Developer response:** Hi, we are very sorry to hear this! The app should definitely sound if notifications are enabled correctly. We’d love to help you investigate what went wrong and help you with the settings. Please contact us at onepercentalarm@gmail.com so we can look into your case immediately! ### 1/5 — YOU HAVE TO PAY MONEY *2026-05-06* Got done with the whole process and it costed money **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback!

Das führt zu sehr unangenehmen Situationen. Dafür so viel Geld zu zahlen ist nicht gerechtfertigt, wenn offensichtlich das System dahinter nicht korrekt funktioniert. **Developer response:** Hallo, vielen Dank für dein Feedback! Das Problem wurde inzwischen behoben. Entschuldige bitte die entstandenen Unannehmlichkeiten. ### 1/5 — Klingelt ohne Wecker *2026-07-01* Ich nutze die App und zahle monatlich.
