This is an excellent alternative. My only qualm is that it doesn't tell you how many minutes are left until the next alarm. Otherwise, it's fantastic. ### 3/5 — Good Basic Alarm Clock *2016-05-12* This is the only alarm clock app that I found that lets you skip the next occurrence of a repeating alarm. I would have rated it 4 stars if it had a larger set of sounds and if the screen for managing alarms wasn't glaring, bright WHITE. Otherwise it is a weak alternative for YoctoClock which died with iOS upgrades. Loved that clock! Now, that was a five star clock! ### 3/5 — Almost perfect *2014-03-24* Would be five stars if there was not a 30second limit on the custom sounds. ### 3/5 — Could be better if? *2013-07-18* Works like they say. Would be better if you could use your own sounds for alarms. A fade in feature for alarms also. I would give 5 stars if it had these two features. ### 4/5 — wish list *2012-03-16* it is a nice alarm utility and I like the Auto snooze most. but could you add a few more options to this function eg. not just 1 min auto snooze or nothing ?? I use snooze in other real products like Casio watches and they hv snooze that are set at 5 mins interval (adjustable better of course). ie one min is always too short !! pls make this small change please ! thanks . ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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.... ### 1/5 — rating *2016-11-30* Your application do not work very well it is not not ringing on time and don't wake me up on time ### 1/5 — A recommander *2014-09-11* Cet appli ne fonctionne plus correctement. Une MAJ EST NÉCESSAIRE je n'arrive plus à programmer les chansons pendant un certain temps. L'appli se ferme systématiquement. S'il vous plait faite quelque chose et je remonterai les étoile mais pour l'instant cela ne vaut plus rien. ### 1/5 — Worthless *2012-12-11* I want my .99 cents back. Doesn't allow you to use music or your own sounds and the alarm sounds it comes with are pure garbage. I wouldn't want to wake up to any of them. ### 1/5 — Don't buy -- waste of money *2012-09-13* Don't bother it doesn't work. Vilify something better that works. If I could rate this with no stars I would. ### 2/5 — Aida reminder *2014-04-02* Why does the paid for version have less Alarm sounds then the light version? ### 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. ### 3/5 — Pretty solid but.... *2017-04-05* This really needs to able to have an option so the alarm will go off and make sound even if it's on silent mode or vibrate! If this app had that feature I would for sure give it five stars because if you going to charge for an alarm you should really have this option ### 3/5 — Okay *2017-02-15* I want to like this alarm, but I often forget to switch my ringer back on after work and this alarm will not go off if the phone is in silent mode. :(. I LOVE the skip alarm feature! That was the whole reason I bought his app, but without a silent mode override, it does me no good. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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!!! ### 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. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2019-05-24* Excellent ### 5/5 — Aida *2017-03-09* Excelente ### 5/5 — I love this app *2014-11-28* I love this app because it lets me choose the songs I want listen to on sleep timer Steph ### 5/5 — Best alarm ever!! *2012-01-14* Very simple, user friendly and just great app! ### 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! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
