Works well, Wakes me up

I like this app for when I really need to wake up. The shake function is awesome. Normal alarms don't always work for me.

Crash

Crashes to the OS on my 6+ iOS 8.3

Good idea. Bad app

Crashed every time I tried to change the music. Good idea as an app. Bad quality of an app.

Disappointed !

Programs crash when trying to change sound /Music

App is awesome if you play around with it

Would be the best Alarm App with some improvements. App cut out and stop working when trying to set alarm to everyday (I think its a am/pm bug b/c it fixes its Self). I like how its show how many hr till alarm goes off. Turn off button should be a snooze.
After 5.0 update the changing music make it crash.

Horrible

When I first got this app, it seemed like a clever way to use an alarm clock. However when I tried to set it to go off every weekday (which you have to do if you set your alarm clock the day before it is intended to go off) it crashed. I reopened the app and tried again. I did this about 4 times to no avail. I then re-booted my iPod with the same result except now, the app doesn't even open. I reinstalled it and still had the same issue. Frankly, this app is a waste of a dollar and unless you plan to stay up until midnight to set your alarm for the next morning, its not worth getting.

Annoying

It won't stop crashing plus not opening up I re-download it several times

Good idea

Would be a five star app with some simple improvements. The app has to be running for the alarm to go off. There is a button that turns the alarm off without even having to shake the phone. Fix those issues and 5 stars

Great concept and execution

Attention to anyone looking for alarm: Apple does not allow ANY developer the ability to have a alarm stay functioning without the app being open. With that being said I like the ability to choice your own song and shaking it for 15 sec+ definitely wakes u up, good job developers!!!

Shake to turn off

There should be no turn off button because when I wake up I just press it so I don't have to shake and when I do the time randomly resets so I can never get it to 00:00 and have it turn off

You're Sure to Wake Up

This is the perfect ap for heavy sleepers. It requires you to shake vigorously to shut it off. Of course, you can still hit the snooze button!

interesting way of using the iPhone's gyroscope...

the first time i used this, i didn't realize the app needed to stay open all night, and i overslept! once i figured that out, though, it works great. i'm a chronic oversleeper, and this alarm is much more difficult to ignore.

Useful

Cool app, shaking it to turn off alarm is an interesting idea, pretty well executed, also has nightstand function, which I like.
