About

AutoSnooze Bedside Clock

Features
Read full description

AutoSnooze turns your iPhone into a classic bedside clock: big red 7-segment LED digits on a pure black background, drawn like a real LED panel — faint ghost segments included. Made for the nightstand: - The screen stays on while the app is open — no sleep, no lock - Tap the display for a brightness slider; dim it to a whisper for dark bedrooms (your level is remembered) - Works in portrait and landscape - Follows your 12/24-hour setting, with a small AM/PM indicator - No ads, no tracking, no network access — nothing but a clock Two gentle alarms: - Each with its own time, on/off switch, and sound (Chime, Gong, Bell, or Beep) - An alarm plays its sound once and stops. No snooze, no repeats, no "dismiss" dance at 7 AM — it respects that you heard it - Alarms sound even if the silent switch is on Note: AutoSnooze is a bedside clock, not a background alarm app. Alarms fire while the app is open on your nightstand — leave it running on the charger overnight, as intended.
