Tired of 7 steps to change your alarm? Wake Up is a simple alarm clock that allows you to wake up to full songs in your music library. Instructions: Choose a song and a time to wake up. Click Save. When the alarm goes off you can Snooze, Disable, or Wake Up!, which simply keeps the song playing until it ends. IMPORTANT USE INFORMATION: • Do not leave the app until you see the "Alarm is set..." status. • Once the alarm is set, if you play other audio (i.e. from Music or YouTube), the iPhone will cancel the Wake Up audio. • The app needs to be open or in the background in order for the audio alarm to fire. That's the way it has to be to get the whole song playing. Enjoy ! MORE NOTES: The alarm automatically sets for the next day if that time has already passed today.
