I LOVE Galarm
I use thi s app constantly. It has the flexibility to schedule almost any set of alarms you can think of (duration, frequency) over time into the distant future, such as a concert in 4 months. Why Apple cannot do that I don’t know, but the genius is with these guys here, not Apple.
Great app.
Really helps me remember things when I have a busy schedule.
So helpful!
I play Kingshot & have multiple accounts which have multiple events to schedule, both single occurrence & repeating. Galarm has been a godsend coz I can set alarms days/weeks/months in advance. And I can set them to UTC/Reykjavik time to match the in-game clock. No more pesky time math! No more mistakes! It's perfect. I pay the subscription too, which allows me to set more alarms.
The only thing I'd add is a second reminder of an upcoming alarm.

Ad is too long
Totally enjoyed it when no ads. Now, ad display at the start seems to be too long. Can you just show 1 ad instead of 2?
Ads defeat otherwise good app
The ads are fine if they’re a little shorter and not so hard to get out of without a bunch of other junk. I used to love this app, but the implementation of too many ads has caused me to switch to other options that are free and do not serve a ads I get it that ads support the free product, but it’s one thing to have ads…and it’s another thing to have super annoying time-consuming ads that force you to get rid of the app. This Developer has chosen the super annoying ads.

The ads
I don't mind a short ad to use an app but two 30 second ads isn't worth it to me. I'll use something else from now on.
App is Great, But..
The app is great however, the Reminder tones are very limited and sounds some of them unprofessional. I am a worker and when I hear sounds during my work some of them doesn’t sound too good.
To developers - please add more professional tones.

Ads problem
Too many ads
Intrusive ads
Worked great at first, then the ads started. Each time I opened an alarm to edit it, an ad popped up and would not let me proceed. Had to close, go out, and start over. Then it happened three times in a row today while trying to edit one alarm. Deleted app.
Almost good
I like the concept of the app a lot. Being able to schedule alarms is super helpful as a shift worker whose schedule is constantly changing. I do think the app description is misleading- I downloaded from the Apple App Store and it states that you can add your own alarm sounds. After downloading and spending time scheduling alarms, I searched in the app for how to add my own sounds and eventually found out in the help page that this feature is only available for Android devices. Why say this is a feature when it isn’t? That was disappointing, but not enough for me to delete the app. My next issue is much more frustrating and makes me want to delete the app every time an alarm goes off. The alarms do not stop snoozing 3-5x, no matter what method I use to mark them as done. The banner notification feature that has a “done, skip, snooze” menu snoozes the alarm no matter what. The home screen notifications snooze no matter what I select. Opening the app from a notification and selecting “done” only snoozes- and that is only IF the alarm page actually opens. 80% of the time opening the app doesn’t open the active alarm. The app will show that the alarm is “missed” but even after marking it done or skipped in the missed section, it will continue to go off. I have all my alarms set to the minimum number of snoozes, but they all go off 3-5x no matter what I do and the alarm sounds available in the app are startling, not calm and gentle. It creates so much frustration, stress, and annoyance - I’m dealing with a minimum of 21 alarms going off each day when I’ve only set 7. And this is the paid version of the app. The bugs are awful for something I’m paying for.

So Helpful
This app is exactly what I needed to manage my life as I am so forgetful with my ADHD.
Great app until ads started
The free version is great. They started bombarding with ads every time you want to add/delete/modify alarms. That’d be ok if after watching the ads they could be closed. But nope. So the app is now useless.
Galarm review
Very handy app. Works well
Great app
I love the simplicity of creating reminders with an alarm days or weeks in advanced
Almost perfect
for a long time, the app works great, especially for a free version. Then I got a notification that to keep the app free I would have to watch ads. The first ad I watched was this highly inappropriate adult site advertisement, I mean, what if younger kids and teens are using this?
Then, the ads started getting longer and longer. They’re all over 30 seconds plus while I’m sitting there trying to just set an alarm. when they end sometimes there’s no visible way to exit out of them without being sent directly to the website so you have to close out the entire app and load it up again. If Apple wasn’t prehistoric and would let you set a future alarm, this wouldn’t be necessary in the first place but here we are.

Used to work great
This app was just what my husband and I needed when we brought home our newborn. We were struggling to get up with just our phone alarm being set for one another, so we got this to force both of us to turn off an alarm. It was very difficult to get right at first though. I had to adjust many phone settings and discovered the app had to always be running to go off. I wish that was explicitly stated somewhere but it wasn’t. After much trial and error, the app worked great. Recently all of that has changed. Our alarms are not going off at all. Sometimes they are being marked as acknowledged before they even go off. Sometimes they just simply don’t go off at all and show up as missed. Sometimes we set the alarm, it shows how long until it’ll go off, my husbands phone will get the notification that the alarm is set, and then come time for the alarm it doesn’t go off and the app shows no record of the alarm ever existing. I messaged support and they told me to follow the online steps, which I had done many times. They then said I need to just create a recurring alarm, but that isn’t conducive to feeding a baby. She’s not on a complete schedule yet so the times switch all the time. This app was amazing but it just isn’t working anymore and I need something reliable to ensure I’m waking up to feed my child. I’m open to talking more with support if we can find a resolution, but the support emails are also not user friendly and confusing. If all else fails I’m going to be looking for a new app unfortunately. I wish this one would’ve stayed consistent because it was great when it worked.

Cannot stay on track …
…without daily & hourly alarms for ongoing EVERYTHING including meds, appointments, ordering meals
Ads Crash App
I honestly wouldn’t mind the ads in a free app, but they crash the whole app every single time. The premium isn’t expensive ($9.99 p/year), but I don’t need most of the features so will just un-install if the ads don’t get better.
Alarm used to be great…
After finding out that IPhones don’t have an alarm feature for weeks in advance I downloaded this app. It worked wonderfully……until the “targeted ads” started. I am not forced to watch ads for at least 30 seconds before I can set an alarm.
I am currently looking for a new alarm.

Was such a good app until the advert started
It’s a really good app if you have Apple phone as it’s loud and we play on silent however after while you can’t set an alarm without watching an advert which is really annoying
