### 2/5 — Obnoxious.

*2024-05-10, version 1.4*

You can’t choose any of the pleasant ambient sounds as your actual alarm. These sounds will only play for a few minutes before an extremely obnoxious alarm kicks in.

### 3/5 — The 15mts before alarm doesn’t work

*2022-07-28, version 1.4*

The 15mts before alarm doesn’t work ? I liked the sounds and all but i was waiting for the pre-alarm bird sounds to come - didn’t happen!!

### 1/5 — Absolute garbage

*2021-09-05, version 1.4*

It does not work! I paid for nothing good at all

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2021-09-01, version 1.4*

I want to love this alarm because of the nice alarm sounds, but it has a weird bug where sometimes it does go off, and it literally made me miss a flight . Avoid .

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2021-07-30, version 1.4*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Not working

*2021-06-17, version 1.4*

Please fix it it doesn’t work when
You download nothing happens. I tried two times and nothing

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2021-03-17, version 1.4*

Doesn’t work!!

### 3/5 — Where’s the clock?

*2021-03-12, version 1.4*

Erm seems sort of ok as an alarm clock, but where’s the screen that shows the time - like, um, a clock?

### 1/5 — Not easy to operate

*2021-03-06, version 1.4*

Tried numerous times and alarm didn’t go off or it didn’t use the correct ring tone if it did go off! Very confusing.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t seem to work

*2021-02-25, version 1.4*

The alarm does not seem to work very often...

### 1/5 — Awful

*2021-02-07, version 1.4*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-01-29, version 1.4*

I’ve been looking for something exactly like this, but sadly the app doesn’t work. The bird song doesn’t play.

### 1/5 — It does not work!!!!!

*2020-11-25, version 1.4*

Failed to go off twice and made me late. 
Deleted app.

### 1/5 — Didn’t work

*2020-07-20, version 1.4*

I set the alarm for this morning. I set a backup alarm due to previous reviews and woke up to my backup alarm. Wish it would have worked. Going to delete it

### 2/5 — Does not work consistently.

*2020-06-25, version 1.4*

It appears that this app must be the last one opened alarm to sound. For example I set my alarm, open up Facebook messenger, then put my phone down to go to bed, it does not appear that the alarm will sound. I would have had to go back to the alarm app, then put my phone down, then it would alarm. I haven’t tested this rigorously to be absolutely certain this is the case, but in my one day of using it, it appears to be so. Unfortunate inconvenience and enough for me to look elsewhere. I don’t want to have to remember to have the alarm app be the most recently opened and potentially wake up late if I forget.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work - don’t buy

*2024-10-31, version 1.4*

I downloaded this app and paid for premium to get the birdsong. It hasn’t worked yet. It is currently playing much later than set. The birdsong and the alarm are playing instead of just the birdsong  followed by the alarm. I now cannot turn it off so will have to delete it. DO NOT BUY, waste of money.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-05-28, version 1.4*

Thank god  I wake up naturally around when my alarms meant to be because otherwise I would’ve been very late because it didn’t 
Work

### 1/5 — Premium

*2023-09-25, version 1.4*

I bought the premium verification and i cant change the clock from military to 12h and i cant test any of the sounds. There’s no demo! You cant play any sound on here!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-03-01, version 1.4*

This alarm doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Crashed

*2023-01-31, version 1.4*

Can’t get to work , crashes immediately

### 1/5 — Nature sounds won’t play

*2022-11-14, version 1.4*

I wanted this alarm app to wake gently to bird sounds.  I paid to upgrade to premium but there are a couple of problems. 1) setting the alarm isn’t intuitive 2) no guidance included with app 3) CANNOT GET THE NATURE SOUNDS TO PLAY….only annoying alarm.  I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP!!

### 1/5 — FRAUD

*2022-07-04, version 1.4*

It’s a fraud, it does not work, be warned!

### 1/5 — Nature sound does not play.

*2022-07-03, version 1.4*

Nature sound does not play. I set several alarms and no success.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2022-01-14, version 1.4*

Tried to contact developer to give opportunity to fix but no response. What a waste of time.

### 1/5 — Loved it when it worked.. However..

*2021-11-21, version 1.4*

I love this when it worked. I even paid for the 
Premium package. After a few months. The
Sound went away. No sound. Missed a few wake up calls. Became unreliable. Tried reloading. That did not help. Great idea. Just bad follow through.

### 5/5 — So happy!!!

The sound of birds make me want to get my day started. I need motivation and this will do just the trick! 🩷

### 5/5 — I 100% recommended this app

*2023-01-01, version 1.4*

So relaxing🌺🌹🌷🌊🌧🌲🌳

### 5/5 — Love it

*2022-12-29, version 1.4*

But needs improvements, has bugs and crashes, dear Huy please improve as it is really lovely

### 5/5 — I love it

*2021-02-23, version 1.4*

Simple and great:) helps a lot! I really enjoy it.

### 5/5 — Great Alarm

*2020-09-14, version 1.4*

Nice

### 5/5 — Very wholesome, functional, effective

*2020-02-05, version 1.4*

Love the sound options and partially  waking up with pretty sounds leading up to a more real awakening with a formal alarm.  Beats grogginess

### 5/5 — I Love This

*2020-01-28, version 1.4*

Downloaded last night, set to 15 minutes birdsong followed by a tinkling bell as an alarm. I loved it, could feel myself gently tuning in to the bird song whilst half asleep and then the bell brought me all the way awake. Weirdly I could not seem to switch it off, there was no screen and no matter where I looked there was seemingly no way to stop the ongoing alarm so I resorted to deleting the app which I’m now reloading this evening for tomorrow because I still loved it and felt awake without being startled. I have had a great day, perhaps due to starting it well.

### 4/5 — Great alarm app

*2020-01-30*

This is awesome. Every other alarm assumes people need loud obnoxious noises to jerk them awake. I much prefer waking to soothing gentle sounds. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2019-04-10, version 1.2*

Alarm is great and all, it’s more soothing waking up to nature sounds and I like the fact that there’s a back up alarm but, there is an option to start playing the nature sounds 5, 10, 15 mins before your alarm and even though I always click the 5, it keeps reverting to 15 mins.

### 4/5 — Sound

*2019-03-27, version 1.2*

I would love more variety of natural sounds☺️
