### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-07-03*

I’ve set it multiple times and it’s only gone off twice. Waste of money.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. I’m sorry, but I don’t fully understand the issue you’re describing. If you can share a bit more detail, I’ll be happy to better understand the problem.

### 1/5 — No sound ! Not good for an alarm !

*2021-10-30*

The app is in the foreground. The sound of the phone is on maximum… NO SOUND when the alarm goes.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. I don't understand until if you are playing background music would separate to sound the alarm clock, apart from the default sounds you can choose a song from your collection.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2020-06-08*

I just purchased this app and the alarm never goes off. There is no support or ways to find out why it’s not working...

**Developer response:** The alarm does not sound if the app is not active in the foreground, this app was made for bedside tables and desks, with favorite pictures.
I'm sorry, I hope you have your questions answered.

### 1/5 — Pas de mise à jour

*2019-01-28*

Trop peu de réglage. Pas de possibilité de faire défiler des photos, pas de support iPhone X, etc...

**Developer response:** Je suis vraiment désolé si ce n'est pas votre goût.
Oui, il est compatible avec l'iPhone X et XS, car je l'ai essayé, les photos peuvent être agrandies, réduites et replacées au goût de chacune en déplaçant l'image.

### 2/5 — Akustik

*2022-05-11*

Bedauerlicher Weise klingelt der Wecker im Gegensatz zum original Apple Wecker nicht im Lautlos Modus ( Schalter Lautstärke aus); ich möchte in der Nacht nicht von Nachrichten- oder E-Mail Töne geweckt werden!!! 
Bitte, auch im Lautlosmodus akustischer Weckruf!!!

**Developer response:** Danke für deine Rückmeldung. Ich habe es auf Version 2.9 aktualisiert, jetzt klingt es auch im "Silent Modus".

### 3/5 — Wish it had a snooze function

*2026-03-02*

I really like the format of this alarm clock. Love being able to add pictures. Love that I can dim the screen. But why no snooze?

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! I’m really glad you like the design and features. I chose not to include a snooze function on purpose, because snoozing can interrupt the waking process and often leaves you feeling more groggy rather than more rested.

### 3/5 — Looks good

*2025-02-21*

It looks like there is only 1 alarm at a time? I need multiple alarms throughout the week. Also I haven’t got the alarm to work yet.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. The clock was intended to be used on a bedside table or in standby mode, so it has only one alarm, which only works when the app is active in the foreground.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2022-03-20*

I love the app but there are some issues that are prohibitive. I WANT the app because of the “picture frame” ability BUT, when you turn the lights off, the pictures will illuminate the room and becomes problematic. Even sliding the brightness all the way down is bright on an iPad in a dark room.  

I suggest the ability to just “swipe” to clock only screen when you go to bed.

I also would like the ability to change the size of the font so the numbers stand out more across the room. Lastly, i worry about the clock being on the screen that long and burning an image onto my screen.  Maybe have the numbers move slightly up and down occasionally. All in all, great concept, just needs some work.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. I will keep it in mind for future updates.

### 4/5 — Elegant und simple

*2019-09-26*

Diese Uhr gefällt mir, der Wecker kann zwar nur eine Weckzeit, was mir aber genügt. Wünschenswert wäre ein großer Button um den Wecker auszuschalten, oder per Tap auf den Bildschirm.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank, ich bin froh, dass es Ihnen gefällt.
Wenn es durch Berühren des Bildschirms ausgeschaltet werden könnte, könnte dies unbeabsichtigt geschehen. Ich denke darüber nach, den Knopf zu vergrößern.

### 4/5 — Better the the rest

*2018-11-28*

I was looking for a clock app that would fill my I pad. With this one I had to take a picture of the dark room so I could use it on the left side. All the pictures were too bright. So I have the clock on the right side and black on the left.

**Developer response:** Thanks to your review, you can lower the brightness by sliding your finger on the screen.

### 5/5 — Best picture slide show clock app

*2023-11-30*

Looks great and is easy to set up. I tried many others but this one is the best in my opinion.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your positive review.

### 5/5 — Great app.

*2021-11-03*

Takes a little bit of time to figure it out. But it’s worth it.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your positive review.

### 5/5 — Begeistert

*2021-01-09*

Die App übertraf meine Erwartungen! 👍🏻

**Developer response:** Muchas Gracias!!!

### 5/5 — the updates are great!!!

*2020-08-24*

I‘m in love with this new SLIDESHOW-mode. 
I‘m looking forward for the updates ‘cause within comes always new functions that makes the app more perfect!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much, I'm glad you like it

### 5/5 — N-T Clock

*2020-06-01*

I am very impressed with the above app. I have always liked it, but it is better than ever since you updated it, more choice of background and text colours . I have a huge collection of photos and I can now choose the perfect colours for backgrounds and text. Great!!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your positive review. It makes me happy that you enjoy my app.

### 5/5 — Like it but...

*2020-01-04*

If the iPhone goes to sleep the alarm won’t be heard. I can’t trust this clock for wake ups until it works all the time. I still really like the look and simple features. I’m waiting for the fix.
Update!
The reason I got N-T Clock is to check out the date in the morning. I know right where to look if notification are coming up etc. It’s great to look at the ocean shot too, it makes you feel good!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much,
The App is made so that the iPhone does not fall asleep, and you can have it on your bedside table with your favorite photo, the brightness can be adjusted by sliding your finger on the screen.

### 5/5 — Add  a feature

*2019-07-21*

Please add a feature that will allow the app to rotate through multiple pictures in the background throughout the night, that’s all that’s missing, please help

**Developer response:** Hello the function has been added.
Thank you very much for your feedback!

### 5/5 — Night clock

*2018-12-20*

Is awesome

**Developer response:** Thank you very much, I'm glad you like it

### 5/5 — Coole Sache !!!

*2017-11-06*

Ganz praktisch 👍
