Aida Wake-Up Alarm

I don’t know if this is related to iOS 15, but the app hardly functions now. I guess I can still use the built in sounds for an alarm, but for me, the whole purpose was to be able to use my own songs, and put them on a sleep timer. It seems that function no longer works, so the app is essentially useless. When I try to add a song, it says it doesn’t have access to my music. It says to go to Settings to give the app permission to use my music, but the directions they give simply do not work. I end up in a hopeless feedback loop. Too bad…

I really like this app, especially the ‘skip next’ feature. The one problem is it only plays 30 seconds of your selected song. Who only wants to hear 30 seconds?? Just play the song and let me stop it!

My favorite wake up sound is my sweetie telling me to wake up which is a voice recording. It’s loaded into my phone as both a ring tone and a song in my library. When I went to set it, it told me I could only use downloaded files. Will keep looking to see if I missed something and will update if this changes.
