### 3/5 — lacking

*2020-02-18*

would be perfect if I can set a custom interval other than every 30 minutes. will change the rating when it's improved.

### 3/5 — Junk

*2020-01-08*

This app doesn’t even work. 1 Star
UPDATE: 3 stars
 I updated the app but it still doesn’t do anything useful for me, but the glitch seems to be fixed and the developer responded to my review within 1 day, so I am changing my stars to 3 for good response. 
This is what I am looking for:
I want to set an alarm at, let's say, 5:00AM and have the alarm repeat every 2.5 hours for 5 additional times in one day. Then have this repeat daily. Also, if I want to change the start time for this alarm to 7:00am or the duration to every 3 hours and 6 repeats that I would be able to do that with just one or 2 steps. I am currently using my iPhone alarm and have to set every alarm individually. If I want to change the iPhone alarm I have to change alarm individually again. I have looked at all the alarm apps and it doesn’t seem like there are any alarms out there to do this. 
The purpose of needing this is, I am on a diet that I eat every 2.5 to 3 hours, 6 times a day. If I wake up late I have to reset all my alarms.

**Developer response:** Sorry. Please update to 1.1..  There was a bit of bug but it is fixed now 1.1 version.
