### 2/5 — Used to enjoy this app!!

*2026-08-16, version 5.1.1*

Keep crashing nowadays with any editing or when adding new reminders 🤦🏻‍♂️🙇🏻‍♂️

### 3/5 — Alarms keep ringing

*2026-07-24, version 5.1.1*

Occasionally alarms ring two or three times after I’ve checked them off. I love your products and there’s no other way to give you feedback.

### 5/5 — Please don't let Alarmed disappear

*2026-07-23, version 5.1.1*

Alarmed has, by far, been the best reminder and timer app I’ve ever used. It offers far more functionality than the built-in iOS app. My favorite features are the Day Minders, the highly customizable Nag Me option, and the Timer Queue. I would be genuinely saddened to see this app disappear, as I haven’t found another app that comes close to replacing it.

### 5/5 — Great reminder app

*2026-07-22, version 5.1.1*

I have been using Alarmed for many years. It is a great app and I love how it syncs with iOS Reminders to pull those in to the Alarmed app.  One improvement would be allowing me to attach photos or other documents to the notes section of the reminder. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Fantastic Alarm App

*2026-07-18, version 5.1.1*

I use this all the time for weekly, monthly, and yearly reminders. It's great to keep track of doctor's appointments, birthdays, and parties. The prealarms, day-minders, and location alarms are a great added bonus. I love that I can also back up my data in case there's an issue with my phone. Overall, I can't recommend this enough.

### 2/5 — Headache

*2026-07-17, version 5.1.1*

Used to work fine, but now it shuts down when I try to edit something. I’ve deleted it and reinstalled , but to no avail.I will get another app to replace it since it is useless.
Developers told me to go to their website, but the website doesn’t work.

### 5/5 — Harika bir uygulama

*2026-07-11, version 5.1.1*

Kesinlikle çok fonksiyonel ve kaliteli. Ben de çok uzun yıllardır kullanıyorum ve asla başka bir uygulama arama ihtiyacı duymadım.

### 4/5 — Done and still alarms

*2026-07-08, version 5.1.1*

Worked good for years and then started to keep reminding me after I pushed done or snooze or reschedule and only way to stop is delete and create a new one for ones I need to snooze or reschedule

### 2/5 — App not working

*2026-07-08, version 5.1.1*

I have been using this app for years with few issues. As of today, the app keeps shutting down when trying to edit an entry. Very frustrating and annoying!

### 5/5 — This app still delivers after all these years!

*2026-07-05, version 5.1.1*

I use this app every day.  It is so customizable and functional!  Please never let it expire!  It helps my life so much!

### 2/5 — My alarms keep disappearing?

*2026-07-04, version 5.1.1*

I love this app it helps me stay organized but recently it keeps deleting my alarms, even the ones that don’t have a set end date… maybe it’s the iOS update, maybe it’s a bug … please fix 😢

### 5/5 — Still the best. Had this since the iPhone 3 or 4…so long ago I can’t remember.

*2026-06-27, version 5.1.1*

Nothing yet beats this app and it’s truly persistent reminders. I would fail at life with my ADHD without this app. Others I have tried get so complex, try to do more than what is needed, and fail me when I most need them.

### 5/5 — Crucial for medication reminders

*2026-06-23, version 5.1.1*

I need to take medications every 12 hours without fail.  Alarmed reminds me relentlessly when it’s time to take my meds.  I haven’t missed a dose in over a year!

Thank you

### 1/5 — Glitches

*2026-08-19, version 5.1.1*

I used to love this app because of its ease of use. But it has lots of glitches in latest ios software. As soon you tap "edit" the entire app shuts down! Stopped using it because of this unbearable glitch.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-07-22, version 5.1.1*

Still Bombs out when going to settings
July2026

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2026-07-09, version 5.1.1*

10 years old, app keeps crashing each time I try to setup a new alarm

### 1/5 — Glitch issue

*2026-07-09, version 5.1.1*

Wife has the app and swears by it using it daily. We have the exact same phone and yet this does not work on my phone.

### 1/5 — What happened to this app?

*2026-07-03, version 5.1.1*

I used this app daily I loved it. Now it doesn’t work. I always set it too weekly reminders can’t do it anymore. When I want to use the edit function it immediately goes to my Home Screen I’m very very disappointed

### 1/5 — Issue

*2026-06-30, version 5.1.1*

Alarmed is an excellent and powerful app, and I’ve been using it for years. However, over the last two years, it has frequently frozen and crashed, causing the app to close unexpectedly. I really hope this issue can be fixed because it’s still one of the best reminder apps available.

### 1/5 — Most useful app now useless

*2026-05-19, version 5.1.1*

This is the one app that I absolutely loved because it has reminded me at least more than 15000 things over the years. But I feel sad that it crashes when you modify any reminders. I wouldn’t mind paying if developers can update the app.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-05-05, version 5.1.1*

When I enter to setting in the app it's crashed

### 1/5 — Failed

*2026-04-23, version 5.1.1*

I have used Alarmed for several years. Got my husband using it too.  His Alarmed quit working. Would close anytime he tried to do anything in the app. Deleted the app and reinstalled. Of course everything is gone and it is still closing when he tries to do anything in the app. Now I’m terrified that I will lose everything in mine.

### 5/5 — Best app EVER

*2026-08-30, version 5.1.1*

Can’t imagine my life without this app 👌👌

### 5/5 — Alarmed - Reminders + Timers

*2026-08-28, version 5.1.1*

I have used this app for years. Best I ever had. Please don’t discontinue!!! If so, could you please tell me about another one just as good as this one!

### 5/5 — Best reminder app

*2026-08-24, version 5.1.1*

The best app i've ever used for reminders, much much better than Apple's reminder app and any other app i've tried! Works well consistently, even through focus mode (on iphone) if you program it that way. Multiple options to choose from in terms of sound alarms, and i hope to pay for the extras feature, not because i need it, but to support the developers in making such a great app. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great App, but no Updates for 10 years!

*2026-08-22, version 5.1.1*

I love this App and have been using the paid version for at least 10 years. Unfortunately it looks like the App may have been abandoned by the Developers, as there have been no updates for over 10 years! I'll keep using it until it stops working, however all my important Reminders are backed up on the Apple Reminders App, just in case!

### 5/5 — So long old friend.

*2026-08-21, version 5.1.1*

Been using this incredible app for many years. But alas, this morning it started crashing when you try to create a new reminder.  Since it's no longer being developed, I will reluctantly have to find something else.

### 5/5 — Alarmed

*2026-08-20, version 5.1.1*

Made my life so easy amazing app Thank you so much all my friends just LOVE it when they try it and then use it

### 5/5 — Looks aren’t everything

*2026-08-09, version 5.1.1*

It may not be pretty, but it does the job and it works great. I’ve been using it for years. I’m really thankful to the developer.

### 5/5 — Absolute gem!

*2026-08-09, version 5.1.1*

This little app is my most used app. It is just fabulous in its simplicity. As I get older & memory is not what it used to be, this app is a godsend. I think of something & immediately put it in Alarmed as I know I will forget it.
I just hope & pray it continues to work with new versions of iOS - at least until I kick the bucket 😂

### 5/5 — Great useful

*2026-08-02, version 5.1.1*

Great useful but can you also make Alarmed to be used with Apple Watch too?

### 5/5 — The best!

*2026-07-27, version 5.1.1*

I’ve been using this app for many years and it is so simple and useful I could not praise it enough. I never forget any event, appointments or even remind myself to call my nan every few weeks! 💜💜💜 thank you so much for making such a great app
