If you have an Apple Watch and are wearing it the notification sound and such does not sound on the phone. This normally wouldn’t be a problem but if you are like me and set a couple of wake up alarms and wear the watch to bed there sometimes is not enough vibration/sound from the watch to wake me up. Will still need to use the standard alarms for this. Otherwise, I really like this app. Purchased it. Being able to use folders is really nice. It would be nice somewhere down the road to be able to turn on/off the alarms for the entire folder. This way when I am off for a day or more from work I can just disable those alarms with one switch.

I think this app is fantastic. I love the look, flexibility, and attention to detail. My main point of concern is that it uses the media volume on the iPhone rather than ringer volume. During the day I turn my media volume down so that it’s not blasting when I open an app, which seems reasonable. Unfortunately, the alarms do not automatically turn the media volume back up, so if I have it turned down they make no noise. This has cause me to oversleep a few times. This only happens when I am reusing an alarm that already exists and is set to repeat automatically; creating a new alarm or even just adjusting the volume slider does change the media volume. My only other concern is that alarms default to whatever time it is when you create it. This is just a small gripe, but I once accidentally created an alarm that didn’t go off in the morning. I hadn’t realized, but it was automatically set to PM when I created it the night before. I hope these things can be changed. If so, this app would be literally perfect.

This is a wonderfully designed, feature-packed app that in my opinion far outshines the closest competitors (Alarmy and Alarm Clock for Me). I LOVE the Critical Alert feature in particular since I often forget to switch my phone off silent mode before going to sleep. Amazing work!!! With that said, it would be *really* great to have a “Skip next alarm” feature similar to Alarmy. This is a frequent use case for me (and others with an irregular sleep schedule); if I disable the alarm outright, I run the risk of forgetting to turn it back on the next day. Once that feature is added, this app will pretty much be the gold standard for alarm clock apps.
