Great app!

I spent a few weeks looking for an alarm that didn’t cost money to work, and would play the music I wanted. I finally found one! This app wakes me up, and I’m in a good mood (which almost never happens when I wake up to an alarm)! The only downside is, some of the videos I want to play aren’t allowed because they are 18+, but it makes sense in case younger people get this app. This was definitely worth getting.

One thing I wish this app could do would be to set alarms during the day, but even then, I downloaded it to wake me up. It’s still a great app!

Good, would highly recommend

This is generally a pretty good app yeah. It seems to reliably play any YouTube video (or TikTok I think) as loudly as you like, and in most cases even myself an insomniac can wake up. As well, several other apps I tried all want a subscription fee around £2 a month.
However, it does have some minor drawbacks yes, in that you need data or WiFi to play (pretty sure never tested but it's yt), you need to keep your phone on the whole time which you could sometimes forget to do, and you also need to press "start alarm", which you can understandably forget to do, since with the usual apple alarm simply saving an alarm keeps it ready, but here you yeah need to make sure you see the warning that tells you to keep your alarm on and the timer, simply having the alarm displayed or the main page of alarms won't activate it even if your phone is on, which can be a nuisance to remember but either write a note with the instructions or cope, and after a while you should remember the process.
But yeah, a lengthy review but overall as the title states, it is good and I do indeed recommend.

Questionable

I have early morning classes, so I cannot afford to gamble every time I set this alarm. One of my videos play just fine. The others display the snooze button but don’t actually play. I’m doing everything right, setting the time and volume and leaving my phone on. If it’s a glitch with just that song, fine, I can deal with it, but I need reliability.

Worst app ever

The timer doesn’t ring at all, and if I try to edit the timer, there is nothing except the video I set on the screen. I want to give it a negative 5 rating, it’s absolutely useless and rubbish

Response from developer

Unfortunately, since the app is playing a video it must be kept open as shown in the instructions, this is the only way to make it work on iOS. By putting your device face down the phone screen turns off while the app remains active.

Very good app

The fact that it actually plays certain videos music makes it a great app and I will probably use it for the rest of time I have this phone. I love Disney world. And the fact I can play certain music that I would hear if I would’ve woken up in a resort is awesome. Great app!

Thanks for the great feedback 😊

It only has select videos

You can only choose from a small selection of videos, not just any
This basically makes the app useless as the video I want is very VERY unlikely to be on there

Dissatisfied

I tested it to begin with and it was fine but it just didn’t work. I’m not sure if it’s something I’ve done- although it seems pretty much self explanatory.

Good app but please let the music play when my phone is turned off

I’ve had this for over a month now but when I listen to laufey or Olivia Rodrigo and my phone turns off the music turns off please stop this from happening I’ve been late for school for 3 times now can you please make this update bye and have a good day🫶☺️

Mostly great

Everything was good except for the fact the clock time gliched and I couldn’t press I’m awake or snooze

Response from developer

Thanks for the positive review! Could you please email us at support@fierce-capital.com and let us know which video you were trying to play? We will try to fix the issue ASAP. Thanks!

App doesn’t work because of pop ups

So I used this app about a year ago and was fantastic, it was 5 stars for me until I think around the time of one of the most recent updates where an ad pops up and takes me to my safari. Now I’m upset cause I could set most videos as my alarm and it would ALWAYS wake me up. I hope they fix this pretty soon, if they do then this app gets 5 stars EASY!

Edit: They fixed it it and now it’s top tier
