### 1/5 — App has to stay on

*2019-09-23*

The problem is that the app has to “be active to function”. So you have to go to settings and turn your screen lock time to never. Then you have to leave this app on all night in order to get the alarm to set off at your designated time. So quite a few things have to be done to actually get the alarm to work and if you miss something like forget to be charging your phone, no alarm will sound off. Good idea, poor example

**Developer response:** Hello Tarvarina,
I’m very sorry to hear you are disappointed with the experience. The configuration you described is there because there is no better way to do custom alarm app in iOS. The iOS has set limits to this parts, I guess mainly due to the privacy concerns. I’ve done my best figuring it out and tried to simplify and explain what needs to be done in the app.
Unfortunately some things are not possible to overcome, not yet at least.
So practically there is nothing the app can do/change.
I hope for your understanding!
