## What is BetterAlarms?

Wake up on your terms. BetterAlarms gives you the control that the default alarm clock doesn't.
                                                                                                                                                                       
  SET IT AND FORGET IT — ALMOST
  Create recurring alarms for any combination of days. Every weekday, weekends only, or any custom schedule that fits your life.                                       
                                                            
  SKIP DATES, NOT ALARMS
  Going on vacation? Holiday coming up? Instead of turning off your alarm and forgetting to turn it back on, just tap the dates you want to skip. Your alarm stays
  active for every other day — no more missed mornings after time off.                                                                                                 
   
  SEE WHAT'S COMING                                                                                                                                                    
  A built-in calendar shows every upcoming alarm at a glance. Skipped dates are clearly marked so you always know what's ahead.
                                                                                                                                                                       
  DESIGNED FOR YOUR EYES
  A calming dawn-inspired interface that's easy on the eyes — especially when you're setting tomorrow's alarm tonight.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.0.3 — 2026-04-26

Fixed: Non-repeating re-rings fired on the wrong day. Bare DateComponents(hour, minute) triggered "next occurrence." Now pinned to the exact nextFireDate with full year/month/day/hour/minute.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-04-18

What's New in This Version                                                                                                                                                             
                                                                                                                                                                                         
Reliability overhaul — these are the fixes I wanted in my own pocket.                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                                  
• Alarms no longer go silent after 30 seconds when your phone is locked                                                                                                              
• Snooze keeps working even if another app interrupts audio                                                                                                                          
• Skip Dates now reliably suppress alarms, even when two alarms share the same time                                                                                                  
• Repeating alarms keep their full ring pattern week after week                                                                                                                      
• Late-night alarms (set near midnight) no longer fire follow-ups on the wrong day                                                                                                   

If you've ever missed an alarm you set with this app — that was me, and it shouldn't happen again.
