### 5/5 — I really like this app

*2025-06-09*

It’s a nice app, but there’s this one issue every time I turn on birthday celebration in the app crashes and also if I try to listen to a radio or something, the app crashes please fix

### 4/5 — Works well but…

*2023-08-08, version 2.2.10*

Hi, the app works well once you figure out the settings. However, the radio alarm turns off after a short period of time - around 15 minutes or so. Where do I set this so it continues to play the radio? 

I tend to fall back to sleep because it turns off so soon after the alarm…

### 1/5 — Yuk

*2022-06-24*

My search for a decent radio alarm clock continues. Hard to navigate, can’t program my local radio station. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Abandoned app, no Spotify like in pic, no support page

*2021-03-14*

One of the pictures shows Spotify and deezer but the Spotify option is nowhere to be found. Literally the main reason I got this. Also, the instruction video wouldn’t load and when you hit the information button it leads to a 404 error for where the instructions were stored. I don’t mind the language issues if it worked, but the two Radio stations I tried didn’t work either.  Want my money back

**Developer response:** Hello, I’m sorry but Spotify change is dej and it’s not compatible with the app now

### 5/5 — Best clock radio period!

*2020-11-23*

I've tried and bought them all.  IReveil5 is the only day to day reliable one I have found.  This app just works, easy to have multiple alarms and stations as well as - MOST IMPORTANT - a fine ramp-up volume that does not jar you awake.
Merci!

### 1/5 — It appears not to work

*2019-06-03, version 2.1.28*

Which is dangerous. With sound on and up, I set a Spotify alarm; but it doesn't launch.

### 2/5 — Can’t change settings to US/English

*2019-05-22*

It’s weird that an app would be sold in the US without the option to choose such things as language. My local radio is not available (?) and a lot of the preset radio stations don’t work. I’ve had trouble with buttons either not working, taking forever to load, or crashing the app.  I’ve been able to muddle my way through most of it ok, but probably won’t keep using this app.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-02-08, version 2.1.28*

So bad. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — Terrible! Does NOT work Waste of money

*2019-01-09*

Title says it all.
I was warned, but was desperate so found out for myself.

Now you’ve been warned

**Developer response:** Can I help you ?

### 4/5 — Now a really good app

*2019-01-07, version 2.1.28*

At first I didn’t like it and so I didn’t use it, it’s been updated since my original review. The only down side is that it’s in French ( at least I think so) but the app now works great , a lot of the glitches have been removed and it’s a great click radio, I actually love it and highly recommend it. It works with music streaming services and internet radios, you can even listen to your local radio if it’s broadcasting online. I would have given it five stars but I just think the volume ratios in the settings are still unclear to me .
