What a great app

I don't often leave reviews but I stumbled across this app and felt compelled to write a few words of appreciation. The beauty of this app is that it is so simple but works so so well. It is exactly what I was after and is ad-free and never tries to sell me anything. Perfect!

Fantastic The best clock app

I have tried many and I mean many clock apps.
This one is by far the best I use it for timing in radio and tv studios as we need portable accurate time to the second with no timeout of display Get it!

Works with Bluetooth!

Great alarm that works with Bluetooth (necessary if you need train wake up alarms). It's free, has no ads and doesn't nag you to install other apps like so many other alarm apps I tried. Does what it needs to and does it well.

A simply outstanding app

This is simply an outstanding app. The fact that it's free might have you believe is got ads: it doesn't. It's cripled in some way: it isn't. May be it's not compatible with 64bit. It is! Get this app. It's simply an outstanding app.

Currently fitting the need

I'm enjoying this app, however, it could use some improving. (That sounds a bit harsh and I don't mean for it to be.) A great option would be to skip current alarm. That way, if you wake up before your alarm goes off, you don't have to turn it off, thus taking the chance of forgetting to turn it back on later. And seeing on the clock face which alarm will sound next would also be nice.

Love it - just missing a timer

Elegant & easy to use - if it had the capacity to add timers it would be 5 *****

Excellent.

Used this alarm clock for a year or so on my old iPhone 4 - excellent! Love the fade-in alarm, and being able to select own music. Be nice to allow continuous music loop and multiple tracks, but otherwise this is a winner. Thank you developers.

Perfect! Just like iOS 9 Clock

If you hate the fact like me that you can't change the settings on the iOS 10 clock then this is the one for you. Has the second hand for a precise time and you can switch between light and dark. For a free app it's priceless. Now that I have it I would have been willing to pay a couple bucks for it. It has digital if you want, it has flip if you want. Don't like the second hand; you don't have to have it. Meanterm got it just right. Just a great all around good clock.

Best Purchase I Ever Made

This clock app saved my life. You have no idea the number of times I think to myself, "Hey, what time is it?" Finally, an answer. This app is truly sent from God. I have no idea how humans knew what time it was before this app. Just think, Earth has been around for 6000 whole years, and we get the privilege of being around when we have The Clock App. And little did I know, it also has a timer! What a pleasant surprise! This app has honestly cured my depression, my AIDS, and my Ebola. It has solved all of my problems. Thank you, developers. Thank you, Jesus.

Take the time (pun intended) to learn things, people.

I've noticed that all of the low (1-2) star reviews are people who simply don't know how to use this.

"Clock style randomly changes and you can't change it back"

Swiping left/right changes the clock style.

"Can't change the brightness."

Rubbing up/down raises and lowers the brightness respectively.

"No alarm when device is locked"

From what I've experienced, alarms do go off when my tablet is locked. However, it's only the default, built in alarms. Not any music you may have chosen for a custom alarm.

"too confusing"

If you messed around for more than 10 seconds, you'd find the app is very simple with 2 main screens.

The first which displays the time in whatever style clock you've chosen, and the second where you actually set your alarms.

These can be switched to by the buttons that show up on the bottom left (when on the clock screen) and upper left (when on the alarm screen) corners when interacting (even simply just tapping the screen) with the app.

IMO this is a very good, nearly perfect app.

I say "nearly" as I've had 1 problem.

The alarms seemingly randomly decide to stop going off. This seems to be fixed by restarting the app and turning any alarms off and on again.

Other than that, everything's been great.

And it only requires iOS 5.1.1, which is perfect for me since I only have a gen 1 iPad.
