Very nice with 3 in 1 dock system
Works well when docked, screen a bit bright on night setting but no biggie. Excellent choice of alarm settings and snooze/nap modes. If you have a the Extrememac dock, you will be pleased with this app.
Like the dock, but app needs some improvement
I downloaded this to go with my iTouch (3g) and dock to replace my alarm clock when the ipod function quit working. It works ok, but I prefer the iHandy Alarm Clock Pro version because the xtrememac alarm clock will not let me play music when it is loaded. IHandy does allow this, but this clock doesn't use the snooze button. I don't use snooze, so that doesn't matter to me. I like that when my iTouch is in the dock, I can turn off the display and the alarm still functions. I find the alarm selection a little limiting (3 options plus music). It's a free app worth trying, but other alarm clock apps are just as good or better depending on your needs. If you have the dock, give this one a try if you need the snooze button. If I could sleep to music in any manner, I would have given the app 4 stars. Lacking this feature is disappointing, because there is a sleep function and you can wake to music. The timer just needs to be connected to music.
I've had the dock several weeks and really like it and give it five stars.

Awesome!
The app is great and it's an awesome app to wake you up in the morning
Needs extended alarm features
Mostly good this app, I just lock my phone so don't have a problem with brightness and alarm has gone off every day. Would like to be able to save alarm times and have a Monday-Friday option as well as be able to pick which song to wake up to Please Update!!
I probably should have checked the last update...
and other reviews here before buying the XtremeMac 3 in 1. Regarding that it's over priced considering it's simplistic functionality but very nice quality and no issues using it with my iPhone 4. However this is about the app so that's all I'll say about the docking station.
As already pointed out you can only use the Sleep function with the two built in sounds (Ocean and Rain), really needs an option to sleep to the currently selected playlist (or allow you to select what playlist, and to shuffle or not, to sleep too). I like the display of the first screen, showing alarms and date is a plus. No issues with any of that or other features but the lack of updates would have convinced me to not buy the dock. Last update was Dec 10th 2010 and only things added was localizations and a new icon... wow. Luckily I still have time to return my dock, but I like it to much, should I hold out for an update or not... hmmm

What is that noise?
I dont care that the screen is too bright or that the music starts where it left off... WHAT THE HELL IS THAT TICKING NOISE?!?! As soon as i dock my phone on the XtremeMac even if the alarm app isnt open, the speakers TICK. Randomly but frequently. The louder the volume is set, the louder the tick.
No thank you. Complete and utter waste of money!!

Good clock, but alarms are limited
Bought dock so I could use my iPhone as the replacement for my alarm clock that just died. Main feature I wanted was a dimmable clock, which seems to work well.
However, I need at least 3 (probably 4) alarms and this only supports two. I guess I'll just use it as a night clock and charger, and use the standard iPhone clock app for alarms, until this fix this limitation.

won't support latest version of iPhone
Whats with the ipod sound shutting off every time I set the xtrememac app to come on? I like to fall asleep to my "sleep" ipod playlist, but this app won't let me. It shuts off the sound every time I start the clock app. I won't be able to use this even tho I'm using the xtrememac charger/dock. Real bummer, cause I like the clock face and ease of setting. Please work on this!!!!! When I called xtremeMac the customer service said the app will not work with the latest 4.3.3 update of iPhone. The alarm won't even work unless the app stays open.

Good app and dock
It is goo application and a good dock for charging music and alarm but guys at XtremeMac you should work out a way that when the iPhone is in a sleep mode the alarm should go off that's a must have in your coming update !
Ordinary
Pretty ordinary app. Doesn't have the ability to make a playlist to wake up to or a fade in setting to wake me up slowly so if the last song I was listening to was heavy metal then that's what will wake me up. The volume setting on the app doesn't display what volume it will be set on when used with the XtremeMac alarm clock therefore frightens the life out of me when it wakes me up. Alarm Clock Pro by iHandy is much better but not compatible with the alarm clock.
