About

Announcement Useful Alarm

Features
Read full description

A handy alarm app that helps you wake up with spoken time announcements is now available on iPhone! Announcement Useful Alarm is an alarm app that tells you the current time out loud. When the set time arrives, it says "It's XX:XX" and keeps repeating until you stop it. When the app is fully closed, the spoken "It's XX:XX" announcement runs only for the first 12 minutes. After that, the alarm keeps playing music and beeping sounds, and the spoken time announcement stops. If notifications are being suppressed, such as by Sleep Focus or similar modes, spoken time announcements will not work. When the app is in the background or foreground, the spoken time keeps advancing with the actual time, and the app also plays built-in presets, files, or music stored on your device. In the foreground, the alert sound becomes even louder. If you reopen the app from an alarm notification, the sound will keep going until you stop the alarm in the app. It is a practical solution for people who struggle to wake up. Main features ・Spoken time announcements in Japanese / English / Chinese / Korean ・Multiple alarms, repeat by weekday, and labels ・Dismiss methods such as sliding, press-and-hold, and tasks like math problems ・Sound settings using built-in presets, files, or music stored on your device ・In the background, spoken time announcements keep repeating until you stop them ・When the app is fully closed, spoken time announcements sound only for the first 12 minutes A practical alarm app focused on helping you wake up in the morning.
