### 4/5 — 내아이폰속모든노래로기상이가능!!!

*2012-03-19*

모든노래로 기상이가능해서 좋아요
핸드폰속 일반 알람을 쓰려면 벨소리등록을 해놔야 되는데 공휴일알람은 내가좋아하는 잔잔한음악이나 즐거운 음악으로 처음부터끝까지 들을수있어서 아침마다 기분좋게 노래한곡 다 듣고 일어납니다^^
멀티테스킹때매 배터리 소모가 많지만 밤에 배터리충전해놓구자면 문제도 없지용~~~ 요 알람만 쓰고있습니다람쥐~~

### 4/5 — 진동만으로 울리는게 안되요

*2012-02-20*

원래 알람소리를 no sound로 해놓고
진동 켜놓으면 진동만 울리고 소리 안나서 좋았는데 갑자기 업그레이드 후부터 시키지도 않은 ship bell? 소리가 나네요 아무리 no sound로 지정해놔도. 항상 진동으로 깼던 제게 너무 불편했어요 수정해주세요

This App is perfect..!!

*2011-12-20*

알람을 갖고있는 음악으로 하는게 좋아요 근데약간 개선했으면하는건 멀티 캐스팅기능은 귀찮아요 그냥 3번 또는 5번 이렇게 횟수로 설정하는게 좋을거 같네요 끄는거랑 자기전에 켜는게 불편함

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Unable to set time

*2020-10-07*

When you try to set the time, only a blank screen comes up. I wrote asking for assistance but have not heard back. Useless app unless this can be resolved.

### 1/5 — Great

*2011-12-30, version 1.0.3*

But because the only reason I bought the app to listen music when I wake up and doesn't work with iTunes match so if you pay to have iTunes match don't bother waste of money unless the developer solve the problem

### 2/5 — Feature improvement

*2012-09-03, version 2.4.1*

It would be nice to be able to go to my home page even though I have snoozed my alarm.

### 2/5 — 삭제 요청합니다

*2011-12-16, version 1.0.3*

삭제 해주세요

### 2/5 — Great idea, needs fine tuning

*2011-12-01*

Why can't the iOS alarm clock do this?  What a great idea!  But my battery was down to 30% in 3 hours even on the non-multitasking setting. I deleted the app and now I don't have to charge all night AND all day. The app needs an editor, too.

### 2/5 — cricket annoyance

*2011-10-12, version 1.0.1*

Little cricket thing that has annoyed many users should be stopped. And why does the app icon say Holiday Alarm? WHY??? Have it say ALARM. This is a alarm that doesn't alarm on holidays. Is that a joke? Like the cricket thing and the grass backing and four-leaf clover? WHAT IS GOIN ON!!???

### 2/5 — Umm?

*2011-09-25, version 1.0.0*

It seems really cool, except when I opened the app it froze up my phone for about 10 minutes -_-

### 3/5 — 5.1업뎃하구 안되요~

*2012-03-13*

멀테를 켜놔도 전원 껏다키고 다시 알람설정하고 음악바꾸고 별짓다해도 잠금화면상태에서 알림센터에만 뜨고 무음이네요ㅡㅡ 이때까지 잘 써왔었는데 지금 이틀째 알람 안울려서 지각이에여ㅜㅜ블로그에도 최신 업뎃에 대한 글은 올라와있지도 않고..어쩌란거죠ㅠㅠ

### 3/5 — Alarm in the ear

*2011-12-08, version 1.0.2*

### 3/5 — It works

*2011-11-29, version 1.0.2*

It does it's job we'll.

### 5/5 — 개선요청 드립니다

*2026-07-19*

1)알람없이 진동만 되는 설정 기능추가부탁드립니다
2)전체 알람내역을 볼때 한눈에 어떤알람인지 알람내용의 글자가 좀 길더라도 글자가 다보여지게 해주세요
3)앱 화면이 다크모드,화이트모드 택일 할수 있게 해주세요

**Developer response:** 소중한 개선 의견 감사합니다. 요청해 주신 진동 전용 알람, 긴 알람 내용 전체 표시, 라이트·다크 화면 테마 선택 기능을 3.0.9 버전에 반영해서 심사요청하도록 하겠습니다. 앞으로도 더 편리하게 이용하실 수 있도록 지속적으로 개선하겠습니다.

### 5/5 — 정말 좋습니다. 음악알람 개수좀 더 늘릴수는 없나요?
