Read the other reviews as of lately, they are right. Hope to see some updates soon, otherwise, everything else works pretty good. If I’m mowing the lawn or feeding the animals I’ll probably miss it because it will make a small noise and then just stay on my phone, but if I don’t look at it till I come back in the house to wash my hands, then I’ve missed it. Reminders and calendar events don’t always work because they don’t make enough noise. Yours on the other hand, works no matter what. And if my alarm is to remind me of something during the day, unless I keep the other app open all day, it won’t work. Yours works even if my phone is silent and I forgot to set, but it has to be for every Thursday, when the alarm I might need is for a meeting or a flight that is 3 weeks or a month away. My other alarm does that, but I have to remember to open it before I go to sleep. Some simple suggestions would be to add options to the alarm like to set it for every other Thursday, or for a specific date. I had to download a separate app for that, and I wish I didn’t have to do that. what I don’t use if for is an alarm because there are not enough features. I use this app for many things, timers, stopwatch etc. I think this app has just been neglected or de-prioritized and is in need of a little TLC by developers or more people are going to stop using it. Either way, after being a lifelong apple clock app user, I am considering deleting it and finding another one. I can’t remember when exactly I started noticing this but I think it may have been after an update. I now have to use multiple alarms, as I can never trust the snooze is going to work. I know lots of people use calendar reminders for this reason, but why not build in a calendar to make the alarm app more functional?Īnother issue I’ve noticed more recently is, the swipe to snooze is so touchy that more times than not the alarm doesn’t swipe down properly and turns off rather than showing the option to snooze or turn off. For example, when I find out I need to wake up early for a flight 3 Fridays from now, why don’t I have the option to set the alarm for the day I need it to go off? The current option forces you to set it for every Friday. It would also be nice to be able to set an alarm for a particular date rather than just the standard day of the week. It would be cool if there was a way to group alarms for various tasks/activities into folders. I’ve used this app for as long as I can remember and the long list of alarms I set for various reasons gets to be confusing.
