Please Fix the Constant Crashing

I can’t love this app because it keeps crashing which causes the alarm to mess with my ringer, putting it at constant .

Also, I completely agree with another review mentioning a playlist option — that would make such a big difference. Having the ability to rotate songs or use a music playlist instead of just one song per alarm would be a great upgrade and actually justify the $14.99 price tag.

If the crashes were fixed and a playlist feature added, I’d happily update my review. But for now, it’s been too unreliable to depend on.

Constantly crashing

I really want an alarm like this, and when it works it does what I need- but I’m getting near constant messages that background mode is crashing and it’s causing the alarm to fail.

I also wish you could set up a playlist of music, and not just one per alarm. In order to have something different every day you need to set up unique alarms, which requires you to scan the barcodes again.

If the crashes can be addressed, my review will change, but until then I’m looking for an alternative.

Great because I need it but

Love setting my own barcodes to scan to check that I make sure I’m remembering everything I have to do in a day.
Hate that I get multiple crash notifications a day. Got another one just now. I cleared the last one 5 minutes ago.
Instability reduces useful function to near zero.
Please also add check off lists to each alarm, not just for the “Today” tab.

Great Concept Poor Execution

For 20$ it’s extremely expensive for an app that crashes constantly. I’ve had it crash in the middle of the night three times now and therefore not go off in the morning. I wish it was more reliable but it instead was a waste of money. They definitely need to invest in bug fixes ASAP

Genuinely Mediocre

The app is fine to use but the real perk of this alarm is my complete dread of it ever going off. The fear of having to use the barcode scanning function is enough to wake me from my slumber, leave my bedroom and switch it off before it starts to alarm. Once I’m out of bed it is all fine. Just to reiterate the app works well but using the functions it has…

FAQ

How does this alarm clock work?

This alarm clock requires you to scan a specific barcode, such as your toothpaste, to turn off the alarm. This action forces you to get out of bed and interact with your surroundings, making it impossible to sleep through.

What makes the alarm ringtones unique?

The ringtones are procedurally generated and unpredictable, designed to prevent auditory adaptation. This ensures that even deep sleepers will be jolted awake by the loud and varied sounds.

Can I customize the alarm settings?

Yes, the app is highly customizable. You can choose different objects with barcodes to scan, set multiple and repeating alarms, and even mix ringtones with your own music. It also offers dark mode, customizable color themes, and various clock face styles.

Is there a way to prevent myself from turning off the alarm early?

The app features a lockable alarm system that makes it impossible to cancel or mute the alarm once it's set. This 'annoying' feature is designed to ensure you are forced to get out of bed to stop the sound.

What are the motivational features?

Beyond the core alarm function, the app includes a Bedtime Reminder and Bedtime Enforcer to help establish a consistent sleep schedule. It also allows you to track your morning routine, promoting healthier sleeping habits and increased alertness.
