Alarm radio selection switches to tiny beeping uncontrollably
It’s a clock radio with a decent display. The alarm is easy enough to set. But, its negatives are: it frequently fails to stream the radio and switches to a backup beeping (Not related to internet connectivity b/c I use both cellular and wireless.) Also, there is a fade-up that is annoying and can’t be turned off.

$5.99/yr change! Be careful
As soon as I started using this app another pop up came up and tried to get $5.99 a yr to continue using. I do not like how this was done. Not good.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Update messed up my settings in the app, I no longer get the weather aspect of the app anymore. I have the latest 📱 ll Pro Max and currently updated
Quality has gone down
Like most apps (and reviews you will read) new apps have been created with a lot of thought and after a few tweaks reach an ideal state. Afterwards additional tweaks are made with good intentions or for the sake of change in order to justify employment and quality and functionality go down.
This app was best in class and almost perfect. Now as is the case with most apps additional changes have diminished its functionality. To be fair it’s possible it could be due to changes in iOS and iPadOS or where it links to.
Weather does not sync. Adding or changing radio stations is no longer possible without closing the app after each change... etc etc.
There are now better clock radio apps available so I’d look at the other choices.

Response from developer
You should contact support if you are having problems. Weather does not sync, not sure what you mean by this. Contacting us with a problem is how we make the app better, we have had no other users report these issues so it could be your device, simply use the contact link in the weather panel and we will get back to you the same day.
Great features, odd interface
A few years back I found this to be the only app that allowed user-defineable streaming radio URLs.
It has all the functionality I need in an alarm clock: multiple alarm sets, day-of-week selections, streaming radio, audio clip alarm sounds and a fairly large snooze button.
So long as I follow the instructions, it works great.
The minor downside is that the interface is a bit dated and awkward. A user control facelift and multiple clock designs would easily make this a five-star app by my accounting.
I purchased the one year of weather info to toss a few bucks to the developer - worth it.

Kinda cool
Seems to have a massive selection of radio stations, however the interface is a bit clunky and difficult to navigate. What's more, after spending a good 20 minutes trying to find it, the one radio I actually wanted to listen to (BBC 6Music) doesn't actually play for some reason? Otherwise, decent for what you get in a free app

Alarm doesnt go off
Would be nice if the alarm actually did play when the screen is turned off
Love This App
I’ve used a previous version for at least 3 years. I subscribed to this version to add the weather feature, which I love. This alarm clock is stable and has many great features. I love the auto dim setting so it’s not so bright when on my nightstand. I’ve also contacted support to find out how to access radio stations I couldn’t find and the response time is always within a day and the instructions for finding and adding the desired station are clear and concise. Thanks Mark for a great app!

Cannot Fault
Was looking for a clock radio app for my iPhone as it sits charging next to me as I sleep, (love waking to the local news before starting the day).
Happy to pay the subscription as this app ticks all the boxes for me and when I didn’t have the local station listed Mark quickly responded with the URL to load it on.

Horrible update
This app now takes over your home screen and shows a radio station ready to play. I have found no way to turn this off short of deleting the app! Reloading when I want to use it is horrible because you lose all your preset stations! This is NOT an improvement. Be informed before you purchase.
