## What is Alarm & Timer?

Simple, powerful, and customizable.
This all-in-one clock app combines Alarm, Timer, and Stopwatch functions into a clean, intuitive interface.
Privacy-friendly: When headphones are connected, the alarm sounds only through the headphones, not the device speakers.

By making advanced features optional, we maintain a minimalist design while meeting a wide range of user needs.

[General]
Customization: Color themes, "My Theme" creation, and adjustable font sizes.

Typography: Choose from system fonts, specialized clock fonts, or even add your own custom fonts.

Time Display: Toggle between 12/24-hour formats, customize 12:00 vs. 0:00 display, and enable/disable leading zeros (e.g., 09:00 vs. 9:00).

[Clock]
Dual analog and digital display with extensive layout options.

Design: Multiple dial designs and support for custom image/video backgrounds.

Visibility: Toggle seconds, choose second hand movement (Ticking vs. Smooth), and customize date formats/languages.

Dynamic Layout: Hide the status bar, tab bar, or settings button for a cleaner look. Digital-only mode available in landscape orientation.

Hourly Chime: Use simple presets or create a fully customized hourly schedule.

World Clock: View multiple cities and time zones simultaneously in a convenient list.

[Alarm]
Set unlimited alarms with full background notification support. Compatible with AlarmKit (iOS 26.1+), allowing alarms to sound even in Silent or Focus modes.

Scheduling: Powerful repeat options including daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and custom intervals (e.g., every 2 days). Supports pause periods.

Sound: Use custom recordings or local music files (when the app is in the foreground).

Management: Organize alarms with folders, label search, and easy duplication. Sort by time or firing order.

Advanced Features: Checklist, Snooze, Auto-stop (by duration/repetition), Skip next, and one-tap global pause. New alarms can automatically inherit previous settings for faster setup.

[Timer]
Run multiple timers simultaneously ranging from 1 second to 10000 hours.

Quick Start: Access presets and history for instant activation.

Interface: Switch between list and full-screen views. Choose between 10-key or picker input with customizable units (1s/10s/1m/10m).

Foreground Features: Displays estimated completion time and supports auto-stop for sounds.

[Stopwatch]
Records: Capture lap times with precision.

Export: Send your recorded data as a text file via email.

[Other Settings]
System Integration: Audio mix mode (play alongside other music apps), and Auto-lock.

Display: Brightness adjustment with "Darkness Correction" and customizable UI elements (toggle between switches or checkboxes).

### 4/5 — スマホを開いたら過去のアラームが鳴る

*2026-07-17*

細かく設定できるのはとても助かるのですが、スリープ状態でアラームが鳴り、通りすがりに消して用事に向かって、しばらくして戻ってきてスリープ解除したら、先ほど音を消したアラームがまた鳴るのがめんどくさいなと思います。一度は消したのだから、それで終わって欲しい。
更に、そのスリープ解除、アラームの画面がアクティブになるので□を押して音を終わらせてもまだ音だけが鳴り続けることがあります。
また、アラームのサウンドをベル、通知回数1にしていても、いつまでも鳴り続けるのは仕様なのかよくわかりませんが、もっと短くなればいいのになと思います。

**Developer response:** ロック画面の通知バナーをスワイプ・タップするなどで起動すると、そのアラームが鳴るようになっています。(そのアラームのラベルや画像を確認したいという需要のため)
アラーム画面を出さずにアプリを開きたい時は、アプリアイコンまたはウィジェットをタップして開いてみてください。1分以上経過したアラームは鳴りません。

アラーム画面で□(停止)ボタンを押したのに音が鳴り続けるのは不具合の可能性が高いです。
もし、特定の手順で発生することが分かりましたら、是非お教えいただければ幸いです。

アプリ内のアラーム画面では、サウンドがループするようになっています。
もし、サウンドを1回で止めたい場合は、各アラーム編集画面の下のほうにある
「アラーム音の自動停止」 > 右上の「回数で」 > 「1回」
を設定してみてください。

※この設定に関わらず、通知バナーの音(通知音)はループマークのついたサウンドは30秒ループしてしまいます。
通知でも短い音にしたい時は、サウンド一覧の下の方にある「効果音」系を設定してみてください。

なお「通知回数」はiOSの通知を送る回数です。「1」ならその時間に1回だけ通知を送ります。(ロック画面などに表示される通知バナーのこと)
「2」であれば、スヌーズが5分に設定されていたら、5分後にも送ります。
「3」であれば、さらにその5分後にも送ります。

メールでもサポートを受け付けております。よろしければご利用ください。

### 5/5 — 毎日のアラーム設定から解放

*2026-07-16*

【追記】
返信を頂いたので追記します。
ロック画面のウィジェットについて教えて頂きありがとうございます！
バックアップの関係でインストールし直したらウィジェット一覧にしばらく表示されておらず、気付いていなかっただけでした…お手数をお掛けしました。
これで次のアラーム時間をサッと確認できて助かります。
アイコン枠2つ分のウィジェットなので、アイコン一つ分のコンパクトなタイプもあると嬉しいです。

**********

iOS26になってからカレンダーで自由に設定できるアラームが増えましたが、こちらが一番使いやすいです。
シフトが確定したらカレンダーで一ヶ月分のアラームを設定しておけるので、明日ちゃんとアラーム掛けていたかな？と心配になることがなくなりました。(消音モードになっていると音を鳴らすことができないので注意ですが)

アラームごとの予定カレンダーだけではなく、全体でアラーム予定カレンダーをざっと確認できる機能があったらありがたいです。
将来的に純正アラームのように、ロック画面のウィジェットで次のアラーム時刻を確認できるようになったらいいな〜と思います。

**Developer response:** 8/12 追記:
バージョン15.0.0をリリースしました。
アイコン一つ分のウィジェットを追加しました。
全体のアラーム時刻をカレンダーで確認できるようになりました。設定 > アラーム > 確認用カレンダー をオンにしてください。

なお、フォルダ機能もお使いの場合には、フォルダを長押しすると、そのフォルダ内のアラーム時刻だけを表示できる「カレンダー」メニューが表示されるようになります。
----
7/17 追記:
ご返信ありがとうございます。
アイコン一つ分のウィジェットは、次回アップデートで追加させていただきます。少々お待ちください!
----
ご要望等ありがとうございます。全体カレンダー検討いたします。
ロック画面用のウィジェットはありますので、
ロック画面長押し > カスタマイズ > ウィジェット欄 > アラーム & タイマー
で、追加できると思います。時刻の下に配置できるブロックタイプと、時刻の上に配置できる1行タイプがあります。
よろしければお試しください。

### 5/5 — Works Great

*2026-06-26*

This app is great, thank you.  As a teacher I have a lot of alarms.  One for each period, staff meeting and parent conference reminders,  etc.

I appreciate using this so I don't have to spam up my OEM phone alarm.  I use that the few things in my personal alarm.

**Developer response:** Hello.
I apologize for the inconvenience.

This app reserves alarm notifications when the app is running.

Possible cause 1:
It is not clear what happens to these reservations when you turn off notifications in iOS settings.
They may remain when the time is short, but may disappear after a long time.

Possible cause 2:
There is a limit to the number of notifications that an app can reserve at one time.

For example, if an app can only reserve one week's worth of notifications, if the alarm rings from Monday to Friday and then turns off notifications in iOS settings for Saturday and Sunday, the notifications will not come even if you turn them back on on Monday.

Solution:
The easiest solution right now is to turn on notifications in iOS settings and then launch this app.
No other operations are required, as new notifications are reserved just by launching the app.

I will consider adding a feature to pause all alarms in the future.

### 5/5 — Not bad

*2026-06-16, version 13.12.0*

Worth the money 🤣

### 5/5 — Underrated

*2026-06-11*

Absurdly customizable and highly reliable. I got this because sometimes my iOS alarm doesn’t work. Visually, you can make the interface and alarm screen look however you want with color schemes and images. You can also choose whatever sound you want for the alarm because you can upload audio files. Plus, when you set an alarm, it tells you how much time until it rings, so you don’t have to calculate how much sleep you will get. The app has high attention to detail and I’m surprised it’s free for how good it is. Just make sure your phone isn’t on silent mode so that the alarm rings.

### 1/5 — VOLTEM COM AS PASTAS

*2026-06-03*

POR QUE TIRARAM A FUNÇAO DAS PASTAS???? eu trabalho em turno e era a melhor coisa do mundo QUE MUNDO CRUELL

**Developer response:** A função não foi removida.
Por favor, vá em: Ajustes > guia Alarme > e ative a opção "Pastas".
