And after I woke up and have started getting ready it continues to spam me with a notification saying “Hey, it’s time, please wake up!” And it doesn’t matter if I close the app or open it or anything ### 4/5 — the only alarm app that works for me… sometimes *2026-04-15, version 2.2* forcing me to get up and walk ten steps fr gets me up and awake. that’s great and i really rely on this app to get me up. the only problem is that if you somehow manage to trick the app or snooze it or SOMETHING other than actually doing the steps, then it pings you every ten seconds for the next eight hours telling you to wake up… and i can’t figure out for the life of me how to stop it? worse, it plays the snooze jingle the entire time, so you have to put your phone on silent, and then you miss any other alerts that use sound… that part sucks ### 4/5 — Great app *2026-03-17, version 2.2* Great app easy to use ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2026-03-16, version 2.2* Pretty good app, for some reason I can't hear the alarm built into my phone so I downloaded this and I like it so much better ### 2/5 — Great concept, poor implementation *2026-03-05, version 2.2* I was hoping this was going to a solution for snooze addiction. Turns out the only way to turn off the ghost alarm notifications with 0 alarms set was to uninstall the app. ### 2/5 — I don't understand. *2026-01-26, version 2.2* At first I absolutely loved this app. Wouldn't stop going off until I got up and got moving. But now like many people I am having some issues. At first it just stopped going off continuously. It would go off then stop for a min or so and then go off again. But this morning it went off for a little while, stopped, and then just chimed (like a notification chime) a little while later. I haven't changed any setting or sounds or anything. Therefore I overslept this morning like before I bought the app. Please fix this. I was so excited when I first got it. I just don't understand what happened. ### 3/5 — Please Make Setting The Alarm Less Complicated *2025-12-21, version 2.2* Title says all. It’s very needlessly difficult to set the alarms in the first place ### 4/5 — Great *2025-09-29, version 2.2* I like it 👍🏻 ### 4/5 — Good *2025-09-07, version 2.2* It’s ok ### 4/5 — Improvement *2025-04-06, version 2.2* Need to improve the application ### 4/5 — Bluetooth headphones *2025-01-26, version 2.2* I sleep with Bluetooth headphones and the alarm won’t go on unless I touched the phone orbit will be on the headphones wich I can easily remove. Another problem it is not loud and if I press any button it will snooze and I don’t want snooze I want it to continue screaming for to wake me up and walk ### 5/5 — Nice App *2024-11-17, version 2.2* Best Alarm Clock ### 5/5 — ios 18 notification bug *2024-10-17, version 2.2* i’ve used the app since 2020. It’s been great until I updated to ios 18 (using iPhone 11). Even though I finished doing the steps or closing the app. It still sends me notification even for hours after. Hope the developers can work on it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not helpful *2026-05-14, version 2.2* Can’t make noise if your phone is silent. So alarm just didn’t go off. I did the 20 steps by tapping the screen when I finally did get the alarm to work Real miss. ### 1/5 — makes you leave a review first *2025-09-02, version 2.2* before even trying to app . we'll see how it works in the morning ### 1/5 — سيء *2025-08-22, version 2.2* يستمر بالتنبيه حتى لو أغلقته فيه خلل ### 1/5 — Used to work, but not anymore *2025-07-23, version 2.2* It’s like they gave up on this app cause it doesn’t work the way it used to years ago; your alarm will keep going off every few minutes even after you’ve been awake and turned it off, or even deleted the alarm setting. The only way to make it stop now is to delete the whole app off your phone Also setting the alarm takes me way more time then it should, just let me type in the numbers. ### 1/5 — Needs a lot of work 6/8/25 *2025-06-09, version 2.2* First off I love the premise that this app is trying to provide. If it worked as intended then I’d be using it everyday. Here is the following list of issues that desperately need to be fixed: 1. Needs a more friendly way to set the time. 2. Needs an ability to add or remove a snooze button for each individual alarm, not as a collective. 3. Setting the volume setting for each alarm doesn’t do anything. It just reverts back to its default setting. 4. The app automatically changes your phones volume to max regardless of what you have it set to. (Clever safety feature but personally I don’t like it) 5. If you had an alarm go off and you turned it off, the app will still notify you of the alarm every minute. 6. If you delete the alarm it still notifies you every minute. 7. The app will sometimes send you a double notification making 2 different alarms go off at the same time. *These are just the issues I’ve managed to find within 20 mins of testing out the app. I had to uninstall the app due to the alarms not shutting off properly and going away. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-06-02, version 2.2* Just doesn’t work as advertised - I was hoping to contact someone to get my money back ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2024-11-04, version 2.2* I bought this because I struggle waking up and press snooze a million times before actually getting up, so was hoping this app would actually get me out of bed. Tried to use it for the first time the other day and IT DIDN'T GO OFF!! I ended up being almost an hour late to work.. and only woke up because my cat woke me. Then when I opened my phone all I saw was a notification saying “it’s time to get up” how is anyone supposed to see that when they’re ASLEEP??? So I thought maybe it was a user error and just tried it again while awake and once again it gives you a silent notification to wake up and the alarm doesn’t go off until you open the app and when I tried taking steps it told me I was making “suspicious movements” and would not turn off. Absolutely horrible + the clock is ridiculously annoying to set. ### 1/5 — Clock is stupid *2024-02-25, version 2.2* Having to set the alarms with that stupid clock is so annoying, not user friendly and doesn’t work well. Just let me type in a time not have to turn the hour and minute hand and hope it doesn’t change the time 40 times to what I don’t want. ### 1/5 — Pressured to give reviews *2024-01-26, version 2.2* It's really not necessary to force users to give reviews... ### 1/5 — The original version was 100x better *2023-09-18, version 2.2* I originally got this app because I constantly snooze my alarm and the original version allowed you to set a snooze limit (how many times you could snooze) which worked great. This current version no longer has that feature. The old version also had a silence bitten so you could mute the alarm while completing your steps. Crucial when you live with other people. I have tried so many times to contact support for the app in case I was missing something but even the contact doesn’t work! I always get “address not found”. I try back every now and then to see if any updates have been made or if the contact email is valid, but so far, no such luck. Apple should not allow apps to be purchased if they do not have a valid contact. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Happy app *2026-06-25, version 2.2* Happy sound to wake up to and boy oh boy does this app work!
