Sleep Time: Cycle Alarm Timer for Negative User Reviews
✓ Ruined!This app used to be great. It was a simple case of set the time you go to sleep at and whwn you want to wake, option of chosing from many free soundscapes. Now it has been utterly ruined! Worst is the appalling banner ads taking up half the screen which cannot be closed even though there is a MINISCULE red x!!! Touch that and nope.. it does not close the ad, it launches an in-app payment page. Im sure this is a breach of some kind. Utter farce. And the previously free soundscapes are now costed. Its a waste of my phone memory and Ive now deleted. Shame a great app had to be ruined!.Version: 5.150
✓ Still unreliableGave this app a second try on a brand new phone, only works half the times it is set. If I hadn't set a backup alarm, I would have missed a flight! Cannot recommend..Version: 5.28
✓ Barely audible alarmI have tried lots of different settings for the app but no matter what I do the alarm is practically mute. I have to put my phone speaker directly on to my ear to even hear a whisper of the 'alarm'. Might work for others but not for me. The constant ads are also very annoying, I understand that it's a free app and the developers need to make money from it, but there are more user friendly ways of achieving this and encouraging users to pay....Version: 5.28
✓ Loud AdsFor some reason the latest round of ‘ads’ on this app involve blasting music full volume immediately after turning on. After being startled out of my sleepy haze one too many times I am deleting this app that I have previously used for years. Very disappointed with the lack of thought..Version: 5.168
✓ Sleep tight with no money in your pockets should be their new logo.Sucks now, too many ads and annoying pop ups. Barely even tracks sleep now without paying. HIGHLY UNRECOMMEND! Unless they go back to the old version I will never install this or recommend this again. Sleep tight with no money in your pockets should be their new logo..Version: 5.28
✓ What is thisSo I got the app. Then it said to verify your email or phone, so I did my email. I told my mom to get the app so she could try it out to. We set the same sleep schedule and at about 2am mine blasted with app noises and woke up the whole house! Then my moms went off later with a add at about 3:30am! It woke everyone up again! I have exams coming up so I need good rest so like you didn’t let me think straight the next day!! 🤬🤬🤬!!! Unless you want to wake up your whole household, do not I repeat do not get this app!!!!.Version: 5.168
✓ Free version is awfulWay too much advertising, not very user friendly to set up, no option to switch off alarm..Version: 5.28
✓ Filled with adds.You either have to create an account so they get your information that way, or if you click proceed without login you get a full screen add that has no way of closing it, even tried tapping each corner for a hidden 'x' but there was none. This app didn't used to be like this. Deleted the app straight away..Version: 5.28
✓ Didn't work at allConcept sounds great but it is not very user friendly. There is nothing to tell you that it has started analyzing your sleep patterns - probably because you think it's working and it's not - like I said, it's not very user friendly. Went to analyse my sleep this morning and it says to come back after sleep but nothing happens when you touch the screen. Disappointing. For me, if apps aren't easy to use straight away, they are deleted. I didn't upgrade as I didn't like the app enough to warrant money being spent..Version: 2.8.4830
✓ Features lostI’ve used the app for a long time but yesterday it wouldn’t open so I reinstalled. Unfortunately now using soundscapes from your own library is a premium feature. Also heart rate reports are gone. Ive minimal use for this app now..Version: 5.168
✓ Doesn’t workIt may seem cool to have an alarm app that wakes you but I paid premium for this and it doesn’t work. All it does is play music while I sleep which is the last thing I want to hear noise when I’m trying to sleep. I want an alarm you know like loud noise when I wake up not absolute silence. I was very upset when I woke up at 10 to check what happened to the alarm I set for 8? Tried it along with my apple clock and at least that works and makes a noise this doesn’t do anything. Maybe if u pay loads of money every year it will actually make a noise at the time you ask it to too. I wish I could give it a lower review than 1 star..Version: 5.168
✓ Adds are brutalThe stalling adds that are hard to remove are brutal. Who ever came up with that concept is completely out of touch. Just makes the user frustrated….One month to make those go away please so I don’t have to remove this app. Thank you.Version: 5.168
✓ FREE VERSION FAILS TO WORKIn an attempt to get to know this product before purchase I tried the free version. After three days of too much time trying to operate the software I’m done with this app. All or almost all buttons you press bring up ads / interruptions. Then when I attempt to record the sleep wake up time the software doesn’t record the time and thus generate the report. What a waste of hours of set up and looking in to the incorporation of this tracking tool. You don’t want to be ending your day or starting your day with this kind of stress. This is not the kind of daily companion programmers you want to be associated with..Version: 5.168
✓ Not the app it used to be.You just had to screw with the app and force me to pay for things I was enjoying for free when all I wanted was a simple app to wake me up. This WAS the best when I wasn’t forced to buy into simple wake up sounds. I am also forced to give a star when this app no longer deserves one..Version: 5.152
✓ Can’t tell when you’re awake during the nightThe app doesn’t recognise when you are awake during the night and records it as light sleep. I have gotten out of bed and been awake for an hour, tossing and turning and moving my phone so that it registers that I’m awake and I’ve woken up only to see that the app has recorded it as light sleep. So I guess it’s inaccurate in tracking sleep which was the reason why I got it..Version: 5.158
✓ AwfulDo not recommend. I downloaded this app to track my sleep. But you have to pay to see that. the only free option is an alarm but my iPhone can set (reliable) alarms without having to download an app. 10/10 would not recommend.Version: 5.168
✓ Alarm no longer going off - disaster!I have used this app before and found it incredibly useful! I used it again after changing phones and reinstalling the app, and the alarm is simply, consistently not working- ie it doesn’t go off in the morning. No idea how to fix it, and have completely lost trust in the app after the first time this happened.Version: 5.168
✓ To many addsThe app makers don’t want free users, an add pops up with every click. It makes it impossible to use (it’s pretty rubbish anyway) because every part of each setting brings up a new add window. Three separate adds to set the time. I don’t think much of it anyway, clunky and unimaginative, I definitely wouldn’t pay for it. Deleted from my phone after a few try’s..Version: 5.168
✓ DissapointedI had this years ago - was great- in simpler times I guess. Now I can’t fathom it. Couldn’t get the soundscape to play. Too many ads. Why do all these company’s want 8 - 10 £ per month?? Or more? It’s too much. I really need to give up on aps. It’s always the same. Want you sign up. You forget and go on giving them money. All BS..Version: 5.168
✓ Alarm sound stopped workingI’ve been using this for yearsss and love it. But for the past 3 days the sound for the alarm hasn’t worked.Version: 5.168
✓ BuggyAlarm keeps getting stuck at same time, have to delete and then reinstall app, very annoying. Otherwise good idea..Version: 5.28
✓ Used to have no issues with it, but now...I’ve had this app for around 5 years now and it’s been amazing practically sending me straight to sleep, however over the past week, the alarm has been “cancelled” or something overnight as it has stopped waking me up and there is no record of me setting the alarm in the first place. Almost made me late for work a couple of times (hence the such low rating). Absolutely loved it until I started having issues, please fix ASAP!.Version: 5.168
✓ Not helpfulI have been using this app for more then two years now because for some reason this app is supported by virgin pulse but I very rarely find correct sleep time it always shows less time than I actually sleep and difference is not just minutes but it is in hours. I have sent requests to the app for this issue but I never received any reply or tips so I will not recommend this app when your reason to have an app is to monitor your sleep time go with something better like a watch or some better app but not sleep time as sleep time is complete disappointment..Version: 5.168
✓ Need option to disable the morning ringtone - I'm Deaf, but others in my house can hear itLove the app, I've had it for many years. However, I'm Deaf and other people in my home are hearing and are frustrated with hearing my alarm in the mornings, because I don't have the option to disable the morning ringtones that automatically play as soon as my alarm goes off. This app needs to be accessible and consider those who do not rely on their hearing to wake up, but appreciate the other features it has to offer..Version: 5.168
✓ No support and annoying adsI have emailed support 3 times over the last few months and only 1 reply which was generic and didn't answer my concerns. The ads come up every time you turn it on. Once the alarm goes off you can only snooze and even then you don't get to change how long is the snooze. If you have do not disturb turned on it does not work if sleep time is turned on. That's only to name the biggest issues with the app. It does integrate well with health app and that's the only positive..Version: 3.8
✓ This app was my favourite but it’s deadI used this app every night to sleep but now it crashes every time I try to start it. I paid for this version but now if I want to use it all I can get to work is the free version which doesn’t have the sleep sounds that I use. Completely ripped off!.Version: 5.168
✓ Huge Banner AdsI downloaded this app looking forward to testing it out. Unfortunately I was greeted by a huge banner add seemingly across some of the controls, or at leas it appeared so. When I tried to x out of them I got the upgrade page where I discovered the high price of 30 bucks a year - a price I’d be happy to pay, by the way, if the product were sufficiently impressive. Because of the aggressive, in-your-face approach, I never gave it a chance to wow me. The developer should reconsider this approach and maybe let people test drive the app before hitting them over the head. Btw, this is my very first negative app review. Congrats.Version: 5.168
✓ What’s going on?Used the free version for years and it stopped working. Upgraded to the paid version thinking that would solve the problem. Crashes immediately on every device I own, even after a reinstall. Not sure what the fix is but I’m really disappointed, not to mention mad about being out of pocket for a now worthless app..Version: 5.168
✓ Nice alarm - but cumbersome 'additions'This app has an excellent alarm system. After (optionally) lulling you to sleep with waves sounds it provided a gentle but increasingly insistent wake-up alarm. The downside is that the app comes with vast amounts of baggage -- that is unless you are keep-fit obsessive in a digitised way and buy into (unproven) science behind its main thrust, the idea that it can fairly precisely monitor the quality, depth and type of sleep. It all looks very impressive, at least until you read the academic reports in the medical press on the claimed technology, which it seems is not very accurate at all. Add to this the constant ads that must be closed (sometimes with difficulty, with a minute closure mark) and that it drains a lot of battery, and it soon can start to look rather less wonderful. A free 'light' version that had less bug screens and used less space and power would create a more favourable impression on many who do not buy right into the company's lifestyle version..Version: 5.28
✓ Broken!This app used to be brilliant, I have been using if for a couple of years now. Recently it has been completely unreliable! About every 1 in 10 uses it will crash or something overnight, where in the morning it will only vibrate with no option to sleep the alarm, no sound and no analysis having been recorded. I have had 3 times where it hasn't even vibrated and it was just luck that my body clock woke me up for work. I will unfortunately have to stop using the app as it just can't be relied on anymore. Very disappointing.Version: 5.28
✓ Getting tired of....Trying to clear the in app purchases that pop up and won’t let you press the X! Screen goes black even before you touch the screen! Used this app for years, now time to find a new one..Version: 5.168
✓ DisappointedI used this app for a while to track how much sleep I was getting which I did by photographing the data screen after switching the alarm off. It worked fine. Suddenly now I go to turn off the alarm the screen goes white and it’s impossible to stop the music ! All I have is a white screen. I reinstalled and white screen again. Sadly this app isn’t updated or has a problem..Version: 5.144
✓ App crashes when trying to view historyI’ve been using this app for years, but suddenly it now crashes every time I tap on “Insights” to view my sleep history. I was just looking at other reviews and this same problem was mentioned by other reviewers. Seems it started happening with the latest update a few days ago. The other problem, which has existed for years, is that the app cranks up the volume to maximum whenever the alarm goes off. I have to remember to manually turn it back down each day before using the phone. This problem does not happen if I stop off the tracker before the alarm rings. Please fix these two problems!.Version: 5.150
✓ Great app butGreat app but I’ve only had it 1 day and now it won’t let me open it as whenever I try it just crashes. I tried deleting it and reinstalling it which let me open it but the second I clicked log in it crashed again..Version: 5.168
✓ Ok app but loud adverts have got to goBeen using this app for a couple of years. Mostly works well, occasionally not very accurate (During bouts of insomnia shows me in a deep sleep, for example). But that's not the problem. The problem is that now they have these audio adverts that come on when you set the timer, even if you have your phone on silent, and if your partner is sleeping next to you they get a nasty wake up surprise while you are desperately trying to figure out how to silence it. These need to go away ASAP or I will have the app go away from my phone..Version: 5.28
✓ Video ads 😡These video ads are awful. The app turns up my volume and blasts these video ads when I'm trying to sleep. Had this app for a while but uninstalling now 😡😡.Version: 5.28
✓ So much changeI used this app for months a few years ago and really enjoyed it. Recently re-installed it and now you can’t do anything without paying for it. Really disappointing..Version: 5.160
✓ From amazing to awful!I used to frequently recommend Sleep Time because it worked. Waking up refreshed was such a pleasant change to traditional alarms. But lately the free version has been blasting full volume, techno-based ads as I’m setting my nightly alarm. So. Loud. Seriously, if you’re half-asleep and trying to set an early alarm, these ads might give you a heart attack because they’re unpredictable and, frankly, panic inducing considering you’re trying to wind down and go to sleep in 10 minutes. Maybe it’s a “shame on me” for not paying for the full app, but after this BS I’m out and will spend money on a different app out of spite..Version: 5.168
✓ Poor Choices from DeveloperLet’s start with the “free” app costing $1.99. That’s not free. They push their subscription a bit too hard, making it challenging to just use the app. The ad screens are hard to close! Also, as you go to bed and set the alarm, an ad for a mobile game pops up. I’m trying to go to sleep! That’s just careless on the developers part. It’s evidence that they don’t actually care about your health if they want to encourage you to play games unless you pay them. Finally, the app is unreliable. Several times I’ve gone to bed and the alarm never goes off. The app crashed! Twice, I’ve received a phone call after I went to bed, which I declined from my watch, which then resulted in the app crashing. All of these factors don’t make me want to pay you a crazy $9.99 per month. The only reason I use the app at all is it is the only app that works with my company health program for sleep tracking. Otherwise, I’d delete it immediately..Version: 5.148
✓ Completely inaccurateTracking told me I had been in "deep sleep" all night, when in fact I got up in the middle of the night. If the app can't tell the difference between awake and asleep, it's useless. Also, the ads that do not have an option to close it are incredibly annoying. Would never recommend this to anyone.Version: 5.28
✓ So. Many. Ads.When you set your alarm, it automatically sets your volume to full, then 90% of the time if follows this up with an ad... which is now playing at full volume. For what it does, it wakes you up in a nice way, and seems to track your sleep fairly well (probably by listening to you in your sleep) but it just blasted an ad out at midnight and I don’t live alone, so felt I had to write this review to warn you..Version: 5.168
✓ Brilliant when it works...I have had this app for awhile now and when it records my sleep it is brilliant I love the insights. However, recently it has not been recording my sleep, even though I set the time, locked my phone and didn't quit the app. I receive the notifications to wake up but when I unlock my phone, the app restarts and has not recorded my sleep. It could be when I oversleep. Although, there is no real pattern in to the lost recordings, which is frustrating. If I hadn't experienced such problems the app would receive 5 stars but now I have gaps in my sleep records. 😔.Version: 5.28
✓ 2tuffzVery interesting data collected for you to consider.... may try the advanced version..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Crappy - annoying adsThere are constant annoying ads. I deleted it..Version: 5.28
✓ Keeps crashing after the updateKeeps crashing after the update , some times i cant even get it to work as it freezes.Version: 3.6
✓ Good luck.Maybe this is a great app but you’ll never know bc it’s impossible to figure out how to use it. There is lots of flashy “concept” content if you dig around but nothing that actually tells you how to use the bleeping thing. I downloaded it and it immediately decided I was trying to sleep... at 10 am. Now it’s 11:41 and it’s telling me my alarm is set for 6am. I don’t want to get up at 6 am. I can understand waking me up +/- 30 minutes from a time I set. Or after it’s done some machine learning of my sleep patterns. But it has literally only “known” for a few waking hours so why is it trying to force me awake with only six hours of sleep and one and a half hours before I normally get up!?!?.Version: 5.168
✓ Sound issuesEvery night when I go to switch the alarm on, the podcast (or other audio) playing on my phone is suddenly set to full volume. It’s a massive issue, especially when trying to fall asleep. Other than this issue, it’s a great app..Version: 5.150
✓ Nice but design is overly complicatedI think it could be made much better if it were easier to get to the features that most likely will be changed each night, e.g. the sleep settings is kinda tucked away, and it's annoying to have to scroll so far down to get to Wake Up Phase options. Having a shortcut on the home screen would be ideal, perhaps in the top right corner above the clock face..Version: 5.152
✓ Beware Ads with Loud Sounds- might be finding a new appI’ve been happily using this app for over a year and just recently there has been the addition of ads with loud sounds. I love using the app, but if this doesn’t change soon, I will be finding a new alarm app. I have woken up my family twice trying to set the alarm because ads with sound now pop up. It doesn’t seem to make any sense to have ads with sound for an app that is supposed to help you get a good nights rest. Especially since you have to set the alarm right as you are settling in for the night..Version: 5.28
✓ Why does it need my e-mail address?I was hoping for a stand alone app but it asks me to log in via Facebook or create an account where it needs my e-mail address. Ummmmm no. Deleted it within 30 seconds of downloading it..Version: 5.160
✓ Bad adsThe other morning they played some ad that blasted dub step music without warning and you had to wait 5 seconds to skip it. Guys I have housemates and They were all woken up. I deleted the app after that. Pick your ad revenue more wisely, this is a sleep app. Apart from that it's ok at tracking your movements/ wake periods but so are others and they don't blast music at you at 5:30am.Version: 5.28
✓ Not that greatMaybe it is not for couples! First night my husband got up it recorded me as being awake. Last night I was up with my toddler for 15 min then I was awake for 2hours after this, the app recorded a light sleep, and deep sleep with no wake time. App also recorded I was in a deep sleep for thirty mins before the alarm, but I'm quite sure I was awake (since my kids were yelling in the next room) and I was staring at the ceiling! Certainly not in a deep sleep. Love the idea of this app, but really didn't work! Set up as specified in instruction..Version: 2.11
✓ Was the bestUp until this last update I would recommend this app to every one I knew. I absolutely loved it. However, after this last update all of a sudden it doesn't work like before. I can set the alarm and listen to my sounds before bed (it acts completely normal) but when I wake up in the morning it's not on anymore. Just my lock screen which I shouldn't see. Thank goodness I woke up on my own 2 of the days and the 3rd was a day off. Only late to work by 15 minutes because of it. If they can fix whatever bug is causing the app to crash in the middle of the night I will definitely up my review..Version: 5.152
✓ Great App, Deceptive practicesI have had this app for a number of years. I used it initially for the white noise - and even paid for it. Now, I am getting requests to upgrade. I already paid. I like the tracking feature - shows me the quality if my sleep, even if it’s not really correct (shows me lightly asleep when I know I was awake.). I like the calm wake up alarm. I don’t like that it hits me with a bright light request to upgrade when I am trying to turn it off ... and I already paid... I can’t even find the original features that I purchased (the static brown noise). Guess I may have to find a new app..Version: 5.168
✓ Forced sign in, broken app.Like so many greedy developers they’re forcing you to sign in and hand over more info, although the sign up screen is broken, you can’t enter the first password field. This app must be owned by the same lazy company that make another app with the same bug! Avoid like the plague, there’s plenty of free apps out there that don’t require you to own a Facebook account..Version: 5.168
✓ Great app but buggy.I've used this app for 8 nights and I love it but on the fourth night it has asked me both times if I like the app (yes) and rate it, the first time I said no, the app the proceeded to prevent me from changing the alarm. Then tonight it asked me it again (yes, and yes I would rate it). I tried changing the clock after my first review and it still wouldn't let me. The only solution was to uninstall it and reinstall it which loses all the saved data. Please fix this bug and it would be 5 stars (maybe 4.5 because the ads playing insanely loud at 1am is not fun.).Version: 5.28
✓ Keeps crashingKeeps crashing when i am trying to view my recorded sleep.Version: 5.150
✓ Doesn't workNice app apart from the fact it doesn't actually detect when I wake up. It only detected that I was in light sleep not awake.Version: 2.6.4830
✓ Doesn't go off frequentlyAs many people have stated, this alarm 'used to be' so great! I definitely agree! It WAS so great. But recently, like many others, my alarm has not been going off. Or sometimes, it'll go off a few times and then stop. When I set my alarm, I lock my phone and turn the "do not disturb" option on. I'm not sure if it's because I lock my phone before I go to bed (so that I don't get woken up by notifications) or what, but whenever I receive notifications during the alarm sequence, it automatically shuts the alarm and the vibrations off. I've been REALLY late to school, because if I Receive any notifications the alarm stops going off, and then I end up waking up on my own to realize it's already almost noon!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FIX IT! I love this app so much!! But this is really causing a big problem for my daily routine!!.Version: 5.28
✓ I like the idea of it but...So I wanted to get an app like this to see or make sure I wasn’t waking up in the middle of my rim cycle so I can actually wake up feeling ready for my day. I tested it out when I took a nap one day and I didn’t see any issues with it. BUT, I do not like how you need to put it your pillow in order for it to work. I do move a lot in my sleep so I would probably knock it off one night BUT the main reason is our phones have so much radiation! I put my phone on airplane mode and leave it in on the other side of my room when I go to bed. Sleeping with your phone near your head, or anything with radiation is SO BAD FOR YOU! This app is asking me to do exactly what I hate lol. I wish you could somehow set your sleep timer and have it ask you how long it usually takes to fall asleep so it could make an estimated guess to know when I fell asleep? But that doesn’t sound likely or accurate lol. The app works and is neat but I will not put a radiation device by my head while I sleep all night lol. No thank you.Version: 5.168
✓ Don’t Bother With the Free VersionThis is your typical ‘lite version’ app that promises great features but then only allows you to access those features by paying to upgrade to the premium package. It’s basically an alarm clock unless you buy the premium version..Version: 5.168
✓ No longer works-no developer updates in a yearI have been using this app a while; paid for the yearly subscription to obtain all programs after a successful period of use in the free app. As of the newest ISO update, 13.1.2 this app no longer works... the app crashes every time I try to open. I have tried re-downloading it and everything else I searched to no avail. I find this very disappointing as I truly benefited from the offered incites. So, I am looking for the app to be updated to function on the IOS platform or a prorated refund of my yearly subscription price. Developers, please feel free to contact me directly to provide feedback and a resolution.Version: 5.168
✓ Setting alarm time is incorrectWhen I first started using this app, I would always set my alarm for 5am so that I could continuously snooze until I got up for 5:30. In the last week or two, I’ve been noticing that that now when I set my alarm for 5, it goes off at 4:30 each time instead of going off at 5 so I can get up for 5:30 and that totally messes with my schedule. I tried setting my alarm for 5:30 thinking that my alarm would go off at 5, but it actually goes off at 5:30 leaving me no time to wake up gradually. What is going on???.Version: 5.168
✓ Annoying ads sound after updatedI've been using this app every night for years until recent update. It still works beautifully, HOWEVER, those super annoying ads pop up with very loud sound while turn the alarm on, even when my phone is on mute. Please note we as user turn it on before we go to bed. It's quiet, peaceful and relaxing time. How disturbing those unpleasant noisy ads sounds are. Who cares the karaoke app before bed!! Not to mention the ad is forced on for 5 sec!!!! I understand the need for having ads, but the sounds? Whoever's idea. Genius! Hope you never get to wake up anyone in your room!.Version: 3.8
✓ Not perfectI really want to love this app, but it’s got some serious issues. First off, I’m also rather annoyed that a sleep app has a blue background, as blue triggers your brain to wake up (because sky, etc), not something you want as you’re setting your alarm and going to bed. If you’re going to make a sleep app, at least learn the basics. And then there’s my eardrums. If you have the habit of listening to podcasts or music before bed and you forget and let your alarm before stopping it, suddenly the audio go to max and blasts out your ear drums. I get that the app needs to be at max volume, but can you not work in a warning or awareness of audio playing? All around I don’t use this app nearly as much as I would if it weren’t for the above issues..Version: 5.28
✓ Can’t reset time from 12I set the wake up time to 12 and now it won’t move again. No matter what I do, how long I hold it. I even tried zooming in on the display and it just won’t move. I literally had to uninstall and reinstall it to get the wake up time to change. This only happens when I set it between 11 and 1..Version: 5.168
✓ WTH IS WRONG WITH YOU?Users start the app when going to bed. You must be absolutely crazy if you think it’s appropriate to blast advertisement music when the app starts! I wish I could give you a zero and blast this racket in your ears as you try to sleep. Stupid!.Version: 5.168
✓ HorribleI downloaded this app after all the good reviews, but this app didn't even do what it was supposed to do. My alarm didn't even go off and it let me sleep past it after it automatically snoozed and I was late for work. I followed the instructions, did what I was supposed too, but it didn't work. Don't recommend downloading..Version: 3.8
✓ Groovey AppI find this app pretty cool, I see wea my sleep patternz are at it best and worst.. Interestg app, I would recommend to otherz....Version: 2.6.4830
✓ Very disappointedI use this app to track sleep for an employer program. I gain points which convert to money in my pocket. This is the only app the program recognizes because I use an Apple Watch for my activity tracker. This app fails me 50% of the time. I’ve missed out on thousands of points! Some mornings there’s no data like it hasn’t been set the night before. Just blank for the night. It’s so FRUSTRATING! I will continue to use it as I have no other options. I have complained to the support people and they don’t seem to be concerned. 👎🏼.Version: 5.168
✓ Tries too hard to push salesThe last thing I want to see before I go to bed is an ad stopping me from starting my sleep alarm. The hilarious thing is that their “paid” version is an ongoing monthly fee. LOL. Sorry, there are $3 apps that do everything this app does, why would I pay $80 a year?.Version: 5.28
✓ Looks shinyI'm sure this app is a godsend to anyone looking to improve their quality of sleep, to find what works, or to even promote a healthier lifestyle through exercise and sleep. I just can't get on the right track. The last two nights have been an easy 7-7.5 hours of sleep, only to have my back-up alarm (thank god) wake me up, feeling like a train hit me in my sleep. Not only that, but the app makes me think I have a secret nightlife that I'm not aware of, with several "awake" moments I don't recall. Thankfully, the premium is $10. I wished I would have burned the $10 for premium instead of purchasing this. But, if you like shiny apps, and have $10 just burning a hole in your pocket, and think just maybe this app will work out, get it. If you're craving some decent Arby's and have a friend, do that instead..Version: 5.28
✓ Good but room for improvementThis app is good, but the phone is suppose to rest on the bed while you’re sleeping, therefore it ends up on the floor quite easily. There are times I am awake & it doesn’t record that I am indeed awake. For instance: I awake and actually use my phone for a few minutes to check msgs & such, go back to the sleep app place it face down again. When the alarm goes off, the data shows that I was sleeping during the time I was actually using my phone. Not too accurate. The free app only allows you to store 5 days of data and then the older stuff falls off. Not enough to understand why I’d want to pay $9.99 a month. What possible features would be worth a price tag that high? Regardless, it does do a fairly good job if it stays on your bed without sliding off or getting hit off..Version: 5.168
✓ App doesn't work properlyI don't know why this app has high rating. This app doesn't track your sleep properly, i usually go to deep sleep in 10 min max. I won't woke up, even an atomic bomb dropped next to me. This app says that i was awake for 45 min after i sleep. I don't know on what basis they are calculating sleep, but it doesn't work..Version: 5.168
✓ Failed to use app because of adsUnfortunately, the app tries to push us to buy in-app purchases. I had a full screen ad with no "Dismiss" or "Close" button or link. Deleted the app after 30 seconds. Sorry, I know building apps is hard work..Version: 5.28
✓ NoIt must be free.Version: 5.160
✓ Worked great until it didn’tI love the app when it works. The customer support when it stopped 6 weeks ago has been nonexistent. I’ve tried all the channels available to reach them for support. I have a premium subscription that renewed in mid Feb. I updated my phone soon after and now I’m in an endless loop of trying to access premium features and the app saying you already have a subscription. Great, let me in!!! So I guess I just made a donation for the year. I get things can go awry, but no response for support is just sad. Here’s to hoping this reaches someone at Azumio that solve issues or cares to..Version: 5.168
✓ Rethink the ads you allow now!I like so many parts about this app. The wake up features are really good. I use the free version because I don’t use this beyond an alarm. The ads you choose to use should not blare sound just by turning it on the alarm. I’m really tired of being startled by ads because my phone volume went from muted to full sound. This app shouldn’t be allowed to turn my phone volume to full sound until the alarm is going to go off. I have been starting to look for other alarms because I do not like either of these issues that have gotten to be major problems..Version: 5.168
✓ Annoying Adds nowBasic version now full of full screen annoying adds that u have to close the app to get rid of. Very frustrating as didn’t used to be like that! Looking for another sleep app now..Version: 5.144
✓ CrashesThis app crashes almost every night. When it does work it is great..Version: 5.28
✓ Not accurateInteresting app. Gives you an idea of your sleep pattern, but if you analyse the way it works, it's not accurate. Most results are guesses. You'll feel amazed because it's the unknown, but not when you realise it's based on movement mostly. If you wake up and lay still then the app will record a deep sleep. Don't pay for something that doesn't work. Additionally; Upon turning off the alarm the app plays a loud obnoxious video randomly. Third time it happened I deleted the app. Sorry no more of this!.Version: 5.28
✓ HmmmmmmddjshSince the update the app crashes and alarm turns off now almost every night so I keep sleeping in.Version: 3.8
✓ Forced to useLike another reviewer, I’m forces to use this app as part of a Virgin Pulse program through employer. For weeks, my phone’s volume has been going to max level and I couldn’t figure out why. I even contacted Apple support to see if it was some weird bug after update. Finally dawned on me that it didn’t happen if I wasn’t using this app. Did a little test and sure enough my volume went straight up! I have to manually reset phone volume each morning after using this app. I only use this app to track sleep time and have the soundscapes and alarm volume in app set to off or zero. I sent a bug report via app so we’ll see....anyone else have this issue???.Version: 5.168
✓ GoodInteresting.Version: 2.5.4613
✓ Cool app if you avoid the adsEasy to use, wakes you up nicely, latest update seems to have far too many ads and it's not immediately obvious how to exit them when they pop up..Version: 5.11
✓ Continuing to downgrade due to ad nonsense2017: Compelled to update bc this has gotten worse due to the bait and switch ad tactics. Good luck getting to the main screen to set this. If you are willing to launch and app, click through 2-3 screens AND then figure out how to extract yourself from the never ending ad campaign with no escape good luck. Good app function if you can get to it. Incredibly poor user interaction snd monetization. Go find something, anything else. The shenanigans are not worth it. Your standard alarm on your phone is enough to wake you up. Any other sleep app that 'measures' sleep stages has the be less of a hassle than this. Too bad they can't figure it out. 2016: The functions of this app are good but the last update has made it ridiculous to set. I was considering purchasing the premium version for the storage but not after the last update. Now they want you to log in or buy the premium version. If you can locate the button to skip this process among the clutter them you get served up a completely irrelevant ad. You then have to wait for the ad to finish (which it sometimes never does) to click out of it. If you can't click out and attempt to close the app and reopen it it usually crashes at least once before you can attempt the whole process again. I've been using the app for a year but am looking for a new one because of the nonsense. There are other sleep app options with less in your face unrelated advertising and no ridiculous logins..Version: 5.28
✓ My most useful app until adds cameDo you know the last thing you want to see when you're exhausted and trying to stumble in to bed at the end of a long day, and make sure you responsibly wake up on time? An ad right where you're trying to set your alarm clock. Absurd. I've almost rage-deleted this app a dozen times in frustration. The app blinking to dark mode while setting it is also nearly unusable, and now it crashes every time I tap "Insights." Used to be the app that increased my productivity the most. Now I'm taking time out of my brief morning minutes to warn you to look elsewhere. I don't expect fixes from these cash grabbers any time soon, though I'm happy to update my review if they do..Version: 5.150
✓ Works well, but has problems with media volumeI tried this and its functionality seems okay. However every time after I woke up the media volume was reset to the highest level. I usually make it at 3 and also set a low volume in the app. But the volume got reset to maximum every day. That's basically annoying. Furthermore the latest version seems to be one year ago and I really doubt whether it is still maintained by its developer. Um..Version: 5.168
✓ Difficult to useThe app certainly works but there are issues, like the constant nagging whether pop up ads or to make an account. It offers no advice on where to place your phone (thankfully it does warn you about low battery though). Also, the UI is very dated and does not match the rest of iOS. Having used it last night, it has the audacity to say it will give me the data after the first night! So, it didn't even work. Plus I couldn't switch off the alarm in the morning either for some reason, I had to terminate the app. After having used it for a few months I have to say it is more accurate than another similarity priced app, and I haven't encountered any other issues. Though it desperately needs to stop changing the volume!.Version: 5.28
✓ Misleading & InaccurateI was fond of this app when I first downloaded it due to recommendation from a programme on sleep. I knew it was too good to be true. I set the alarm one night and was awake tossing and turning for an hour and very wide awake. I stopped the alarm and was shown that I was in between light sleep and deep sleep for that hour I was awake. How misleading!?!? Doctors who are promoting such apps are extremely ignorant and just as untrustworthy and misleading as the app itself! Very disappointed. Would not recommend to anyone..Version: 5.28
✓ GlitchesAlarm doesn't go off and app keeps crashing in morning before data can be recorded rendering it unfortunately pretty useless..Version: 3.8
✓ AlrightA good app for sending you to sleep (the noises are very good) but it only keeps the past 5 night sleeps and often crashes. It also freezes a lot when trying to change the alarm..Version: 5.28
✓ Very good app, has issue sometimes won't let you change alarm times without reinstalling.This is a very good app, with one small issue. Quite often it won't let you change the time of the alarm, only way to fix it is to remove the app then change the settings and music again. If you set the alarm for the same time everyday get this app, if you change alarm times avoid this app till the bug is fix..Version: 5.28
✓ Had it for years, used to be better...In short -It's a nice idea and is kinda fun to have. BUT I wouldn't recommend use as a main alarm (or main health tracking device if you need reliable data). Lots of updates. But the app can get pretty glitchy with not allowing alarm time to adjust, which obviously is important if you want to wake up on time. The sleep tracker isn't super accurate, but it's decent if you want to know just how many hours you were out...which is legitimately the only reason I've kept it this long. The heart rate monitor has never shown mine accurately. The app also has a lot of extra health content that you don't have access to unless you buy premium or another of their developer's app. Takes up quite a bit of space especially once you start logging some days of sleep..Version: 5.28
✓ Works well but...This app works well. It provides a very efficient alarm call in the morning and during the course of the night illuminates automatically when the phone is turned over, rather handy. Unfortunately it has too many negatives to make it great. Most irritating is the ads on the screen. The red delete crosses to get rid of the ads do not work! Very frustrating! Also, how many times do you want to prompt me to buy premium!? I’ve already indicated NO, stop asking. On an upside if you like digitalisation of your sleep, health and fitness and basically your life, then this is the app for you. I agree with one of the other reviews in that a basic/lighter version of this app would work very well for those that just need an alarm clock. Please consider..Version: 5.164
✓ The worst!I absolutely HATE this app. My work has a Virgin Pulse program where e can earn money for tracking things like exercise and sleep. This is the only sleep app that is compatible with the program. If you have the free version, it’s a pain in the neck to set every night. I have to go through 2 or 3 ads and it’s not easy to bypass them, so I end up accidentally visiting the ads website because the way to exit out is a tiny, tiny x in all different places. Then, many times it just just stops tracking your sleep, so there is no alarm and no credit for points. I am also a night shift person and I don’t slept well during the day. So, if I am not in what the app determines is deep sleep or light sleep it will not give you credit for being in bed for 7 hours or more. Same thing if my husband is having a restless night. His movement in the bed will be enough to have the app say I’m not sleeping and I don’t get my points. Then, I though well maybe the paid version is better. But... then I saw how much it is and for a sleep app it’s expensive and I HATE the free version so much, that I can’t bring my self to pay for it. Virgin Pulse needs to have a better sleep tracking app than this and I have already told them as much..Version: 5.168
✓ It's okIt measures things differently to other sLeep aps, All give different data. What I'm finding with this one, is that if I sleep through the alarm (.often) all of the data for the night disappears..Version: 5.168
✓ Disrupted iPhoneI tested the free version for about a week. It initially seemed great, but then one day a game ad starting taking over the screen, after starting sleep recording. There was no “x” button to close it and I was afraid to click on the game (seemed like potential malware). After closing and re-opening the app and tinkering with it, I could eventually get rid of the ad and view the app features. My other phone apps would sometimes spontaneously drop, when I was in the middle of using them. I saw white screen once or twice and my phone started running hotter than usually. I quit using this the day my phone blacked out in the middle of my commute, connected to my car - all I could see was a black screen (I was trying to see something outside of the CarPlay app)..Version: 5.168
✓ App stopped workingI have bought the App but it still won't work - haven't had recordings for a couple of days and no response from tech support to my two emails either..Version: 2.5.4613
✓ A little trickyThis app is great when it works but the instructions aren't very clear. The information recorded is good but I am not convinced by its accuracy.Version: 5.28
✓ Woke me during REM!Alarm went off 25 minutes before setting, while I was dreaming. Worst wakeup ever!.Version: 5.28
