Mr Wilborn is RIGHT
Theres no way to stop it except turn off 24 hour segments or uninstall the app. There’s no half or quarter hour options. It only offers the military (24 hour) time format. Needs 12 hour format option. I think Pip Pip uses too much battery and probably will discontinue daily use. I also loved the CHIME app. Pippip is the closest to the function that Ive found. ITS HANDY to have an hourly signal but the additional graphics etc. are using power. It could be improved as noted by Wilborn’s review. Chime is still on my phone but it was crippled somehow and won’t make the signal sound any longer. It will start and run. I cant find the developer name because the apple store blocked it. Here is the Chime main screen as it’s displayed on my iphone- the chimes could be set to quarter or half-hour, or hourly. [chime every: quarter hour] [from: 10 am] [till: 2 am] [using: speech (female)] [on | off]

There once was a super simple app called Chime that did what this app does, but had a few great features: 1) a small selection of sounds other than the awful carillon sound this app makes; 2) the ability to have the chime sound just before the hour (e.g. two minutes) instead of only at the top of the hour; 3) the chime sound did not damage your hearing when you were wearing earbuds! 4) it just chimed, no notifications or anything else.
I wish this was that app. Alas it is not. And really, try not to be wearing AirPods when this app goes off!
