### 5/5 — Toller Wecker

*2024-12-08*

Toller Wecker, bitte noch Lautstärke Regelung und Einblenden hinzufügen. Dann perfekt

### 5/5 — Great Alarm

*2024-07-21*

Allows me to play my favorite artis - perfect for awaking - thanks

### 5/5 — Just works beautifully!

*2024-03-01*

At last! An alarm app that actually works. Beautifully simple interface. Easy to use even as a totally blind person with VoiceOver, worth five stars this alone, if you are blind you know exactly what I mean. Can't thank this developer enough, if only all laps could be this simple, beautifully designed, well behaved, actually work, especially with VoiceOver… Thank you so very much!!!

### 4/5 — What happened?

*2021-12-29*

I don’t know if this is related to iOS 15, but the app hardly functions now. I guess I can still use the built in sounds for an alarm, but for me, the whole purpose was to be able to use my own songs, and put them on a sleep timer.

It seems that function no longer works, so the app is essentially useless. 

When I try to add a song, it says it doesn’t have access to my music. It says to go to Settings to give the app permission to use my music, but the directions they give simply do not work. I end up in a hopeless feedback loop.

Too bad…

### 4/5 — Close

*2020-11-15*

I really like this app, especially the ‘skip next’ feature. The one problem is it only plays 30 seconds of your selected song. Who only wants to hear 30 seconds?? Just play the song and let me stop it!

### 5/5 — Like the auto-snooze feature

*2020-09-07*

I sleep very light and want to give myself the option of staying in bed a little longer when I need it. So it’s very nice that I don’t need to do anything to silence the alarm.

### 3/5 — No way to use non downloaded sound files

*2020-07-24*

My favorite wake up sound is my sweetie telling me to wake up which is a voice recording. It’s loaded into my phone as both a ring tone and a song in my library. When I went to set it, it told me I could only use downloaded files. Will keep looking to see if I missed something and will update if this changes.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2019-05-24*

Excellent

### 1/5 — No Music

*2018-10-16*

I bought this specifically because I wanted to use my iTunes songs and it only lets me pick from one album. Waste of $0.99.

### 1/5 — Wecker ohne Weckfunktion

*2017-05-26*

Funktioniert bei mir leider nicht wurde noch nie geweckt obwohl ich alles eingestellt hatte...Wenn dann die weckzeit abgelaufen ist erscheint eine rote 1... Toll oder... Auf so ein Wecker kann man auch sch....
