Alarm Clock for Me for Negative User Reviews
✓ Good appGood app. Works well BUT you cannot change the date format😱.Version: 3.1
✓ WASTE OF MONEYI bought the radar, weather and alarm clock app. What a waste of money. They all don't work well. It won't work if I have my phone on vibrate so I have to listen to my phone ringing all night long. The Apple alarm clock is much better.Version: 3.2
✓ Can't alarm when phone is in silent mode?!?Unfortunately 100% useless due to been unable to alarm when phone is in silent mode. If you want the alarm to wake you up, you have to give up on getting a decent sleep due to possibly been woken up by a nuisance caller, phoning you awake, because silence mode needs to be turned off. What a waste of money unless this is addresed! "Alarmy" can alarm when silent mode on, but needs to be open to work, this app is the exact opposite. Unable to contact app developer to ask about this, so hopefully can be resolved via the review service?.Version: 3.5
✓ ArgggggggThis app use to be great. Recently there has been an update and now I can't turn the alarm off... I have to shut my phone for the alarm to stop... please refix my app so the alarm will shut off when I tap the SHUT OFF!!!! 😡😡😡.Version: 3.0
✓ White noise?It could be my sleep deprived imagination, but didn't this have a selection of white noise? It was really handy working night shifts..Version: 3.0
✓ Occasionally freezes/crashes/hangsI use this for work, meaning it had to be 100% reliable. Three times it has frozen just before my alarm is supposed to go off, says it’s 6:59:59 when it’s set for 7. I’m on latest iOS, app version, etc. I’ve started using second and third alarm apps as backup because there’s no point to an alarm app that doesn’t work 100% of the time. I like the features, but reliability is the baseline for an alarm, an this doesn’t have it. 3rd times not the charm, I’m switching..Version: 3.5
✓ Terrible appYou have to remember to open the app when you go to sleep, and the phone can't be on silent. Waste of money.Version: 2.9
✓ The buzzer is too lowI liked using the clock on the iPhone before the most recent update messed with that. This app is annoying and will force me to buy an alarm clock again. Why did you mess w a good thing? PS - 4 days after the update, the clock on my iPhone began to work again. I noticed on an earlier update that all my phone functions worked reliably again only after as much as two weeks had passed. I guess this is just a hazard w updates..Version: 3.5
✓ Purchased app issueOne notable concern for me. I purchased needing new alarm. Tried free versions but w ads, couldn’t evaluate as too bright but interface looks good, clean. With purchase however, the menu bar remains “bright white” in areas of text (return arrow and app on left, status menu on right) in addition to the app switcher “bar” in middle bottom. Is there any way to turn those off as still too bright even if I turn screen brightness to “0” on slider in control panel. If this could be fixed, I’d revise my stars but can’t use for the moment and can’t seem to request a refund.Version: 3.5
✓ Face ID turns off the alarm-cannot snoozeTech support has been useless. Was happy with app on my iPhone 8. Got the 11 pro and now if you look at the alarm Face ID turns it off. I would not mind if it snoozed the alarm. But it is now useless because snooze is not functional. If the screen is locked you are asked if you want to use Face ID and there is no way to tell it no and when you select ok it turns off the alarm with no snooze option. If the app is open and you look at it, it turns the alarm off and you cannot snooze. If it is running in the background sometimes you get a pop up with a snooze option. Other times it sends you to the app where Face ID turns off the alarm..Version: 3.5
✓ I can not add my musicI just purchased this app, after using the free version for a few days. But my add music will not work. I also would like to see a better choice of alarm sounds. Especially since the add music button does not work. I bit frustrated right now. I do like the fact that I can have multiple alarms that can repeat any time I need them too. Please fix the add music button!!!.Version: 3.5
✓ PurchasedI purchased this app to stop the ads I don’t mind the ads except I use this a a night clock and the ads are too bright white light The ads never stopped Every time I turn on I have to select purchase, Go to the App Store and select open. Then I get ad free for one night. It is like Groundhog Day I have emailed the company with no reply or any solution As free it is good Do not purchase.Version: 3.5
✓ The music doesn’t work??I bought this application for the sole reason that my normal alarm app on my phone wasn’t playing my music during my alarms anymore. This app claims to offer that same feature, but when the time comes to actually play the song, a normal alarm song is played. Very disappointed in this purchase..Version: 3.5
✓ Could be betterCould be better.Version: 3.3
✓ Phone on mute - alarm doesn’t work.The app is great, love it. But I don’t like to be woken during the night by text message or email notifications and you can’t turn off ALL notifications with the click of one button, and the app won’t give an audible alarm if the phone is on mute. Kinda defeats the purpose doesn’t it. It would be a 5 star app if it would audibly alarm when the phone is on mute! I’m sure it can be done because Apple’s alarms work when the phone is on mute!.Version: 3.3
✓ Horrible. Unreliable. Complete waste of $3.99.Alarm activates but no sound even if you make certain your volume is turned on. To check . . . I set alarm for one minute; alarm went off with no sound. Sound was silent and manually adjusted so I could hear alarm. Although sound was adjusted about mid range on iPad home setting the sound was silent on this app. Trying to make certain sound is adjusted correctly in app cannot be done . . . when manually adjusting sound in app when setting alarm no volume indicator shows..Version: 3.5
✓ Used to work very wellThis used to be a great app but there was an update recently that results in the alarm not turning off even after you tap the "turn off" area. If you live with someone who doesn't get up as early as you, this can be very annoying. It also takes a good five minutes to turn the alarm off. Please fix this app so it is usable again..Version: 3.0
✓ Refund pleaseI deleted your demo version. Thought this $5 one was a different app. If I have to leave the app open in order to use my music library, the app is useless to me. Dammit. Can’t anyone develop the same stock iPhone app but with added features? Apple is too stupid (they mustn’t use their own products) to let you set the volume of their alarms. They seemingly never considered that someone might want an alarm to ring at a different volume than their phone. Seriously, refund me please. Your app description said nothing about having to leave the app open to use my own music. I think your description actually said you could run the app in the background with no caveats..Version: 3.5
✓ InconvenientYou have to have the ringer on in order for the alarm to work which means you get woken up by any other notifications in the night. Plus you have to have the app open in order for it to work:.Version: 3.5
✓ Bad App Does Not WorkThis app costs $6 dollars which is not very much but still costs money and still did not work..Version: 3.5
✓ Don’t brother.IPhone X user. Worst app ever. Never got it work and I am using the paid version..Version: 3.5
✓ Alarm still mutes itselfApp starts with no volume, then you have to turn volume up and alarm activates with no sound. Alarm also doesn’t repeat the custom song anymore. I am on an iPod Touch 6 and do not have do not disturb on. The app was playing sound when an alarm activates before it was updated, Please update the app with a volume bar so that everyone can keep the volume of the app on. Original review : Alarm now muted itself before or after it plays once and no longer can hear it. It wasn’t do that before. I can’t seem to make it louder when the alarm show it’s still playing. This needs to be fixed ASAP.Version: 3.5
✓ Was happy but not any more :(When I first got this app the snooze button was separate and responded the first time when touched. Now it's a tiny little thing that you have to press half a dozen times and hope you don't turn the light on. Also the shake to snooze thing turns the alarm off- bit useless!!! Not happy and won't be using this app any more :( :(.Version: 1.2
✓ Very disappointed.Still no update even though the free version has had several. Devs don’t seem interested in rectifying this. I’ve moved on to another more up to date & free app. App hasn’t been updated for several years yet the free version has been. Not encouraging for potential buyers or long term users. Alarm doesn’t ring even though notifications are on, app is in the foreground, do not disturb is off & phone isn’t on silent..Version: 3.5
✓ Disappointment but I still like the appJust reading some of the comments, I was very excited to get the paid version. But as soon as the paid version loaded I was highly disappointed (Only because I was anticipating more from the comments I read) I feel like I paid $4.00 just to remove ads. I still love the app but it needs some more (Clock faces some more colors and a few more features) because literally only thing I see extra in the paid version is the music add on an No ads) But Thanks for the upgrade and keep up the good work!!!.Version: 3.5
✓ Poor and no better than the free one on your phone.Paid £3.99 and might as well have given it to charity, the stupid app has to be turned on for the alarm to work, it constantly puts messages up once the alarm sets so your constantly tapping the app to keep the room dark otherwise it's dark then it's light then it's dark and so forth, really really annoying app!! Rubbish at its best.Version: 3.2
✓ It’s fine as a basic alarmCouldn’t use it as in order to have a song as an alarm the app needs to be open all night..Version: 3.5
✓ Just what I need!From turning off alarm unknowingly to snoozing 3,4,5 times to incorporating alarm into my dream and sleeping through it til the alarm “freezes” and sound turns off, I’ve done it all my entire life and continue doing so at 54 years of age. This app has the potential to be life changing! My only fear is there currently aren’t enough different obnoxious sounds for the app to work for me long term. The phone shake and math problem features are great. My only suggestion to the developer is to increase the size of the obnoxious sound library because when a sound becomes too familiar and no longer wakes me, the shake and math features become irrelevant. Thank you!.Version: 3.5
✓ GlitchSigned up for the ad free version but it’s not working. How do I fix this please? Thank You..Version: 3.5
✓ Issues with soundsI like having the clock on. During the night when I wake up, I can see the time. I like most of the features. Being able to dim the clock is great. But, what I don't like are the sounds. For some reason, while this is running, if I get an email, or a text, or anything else, I get dings and pings. I have my phone set to a sleep mode from 9pm to 7am where the ONLY sounds I should get are calls from a few specific people (in case of emergency). As long as this clock runs, every middle of the night email I get sends a notification that wakes me. I hate it. If they can fix that issue, then I'd give this five stars. Until then, you get 2..Version: 3.3
✓ Why so much?It's only an alarm clock app. Not many features. So far it works fine, but sell it for $99cents or $1.99. There are other apps out there that do much more for FIVE DOLLARS PLUS..Version: 3.1
✓ NoiselessUnless opened and on display I can’t seem to get this to make any noise..Version: 3.5
✓ AlarmIt works. Too bad that it won't automatically open iTunes to play the song of your choice..Version: 2.7
✓ Doesn’t work. Waste of moneyThe app doesn’t work. It requires you ti keep the ohone in ringing mode -m if it is in silent mode alarm doesn’t work. So it might ring the alarm and you can wake up if you are not already by the kther notifications or calls. This is super frustrating. Also it doesn’t play the song from Apple music. It requires you to run the app through out the night. Most insane app that doesn’t make sense. Wonder how people rated it so high..Version: 3.5
✓ FontsFar too small, and there is still space to expand and keep the character of the app. Alarm could still be louder for deep sleepers!.Version: 3.5
✓ Alarm clock is not workingI downloaded the unpaid version to try this alarm clock. Even though all sounds were set, the next morning I only received a "notification!" Alarm clock didn't work. Thought that if I buy the app something will change-nothing! Same performance- I set the alarm, at the set time it just sends me notifications (many of them this time! Kinda snoozing), but no sound whatsoever. Very disappointed, it wasn't worthy the money. I wish every app would return the paid money back in case they don't work....Version: 2.13
✓ Alarm does not work when phone is silencedThe built in Apple alarm rings even if phone is silenced. This app does not. You must unsilence your phone if you want the alarm sound to work. Additionally the weather info is so small it is difficult to read. If not for these 2 issues I would have given it 5 stars. I have the fully paid version and iPhone 12 Pro Max. Developer response was irrelevant. If the silence switch is turned off the alarm WILL NOT WORK no matter if in the background or foreground..Version: 3.5
✓ App enhancement requestI finally lost Nightstand due to getting a new phone. I found your app and hope to like it as much but one feature I dont see is that your alarm won’t sound if Silent mode is on. Please consider upgrading the app to include this feature. We keep our phones on silent as we have different sleep schedules so notifications wont wake each other. I wish the alarm would sound even in silent mode as it did in Nightstand..Version: 3.5
✓ Frustratingly disappointedThe app steered me toward choosing the option allowing the alarm to come on with the app closed so I took it. Now I cannot find any way to disable it. Otherwise works vey well..Version: 3.3
✓ Favorite App but favorite feature no longer worksThe “fade-in” alarm feature no longer works. Alarm stays at only one volume - I really liked the gradually increasing volume. I usually wake at first (lowest) setting, but was always assured that if for some reason I didn’t wake for that then it would gradually get louder until it woke me up... Please fix this feature! Will give 5 stars then!.Version: 3.5
✓ Refund pleaseThis app doesn’t have the basic, simple functionality of an alarm. I shouldn’t need to have the app open and on to be able to turn it off. I wish I could get a refund as this app does not do what it should..Version: 3.5
✓ GreatFantastic easy to work with.Version: 2.9
✓ Cant play itunesIt doesn't play music from the music i chose to play as the alarm goes on..Version: 1.1
✓ Phone closedWhen phone is closed alarm shuts off when phone opened..Version: 3.5
✓ One Big FlawGreat features and versatility with one huge flaw - it doesn’t override silent or night mode, which makes it totally unusable. If they can fix that, it would be perfect!.Version: 3.5
✓ Alarm Fade InI don’t trust this app any more. I bought it for the sound fade-in but, although I have that set up the sound comes on at whatever my volume is set to. In addition, yesterday it came on 17 minutes late and today, two minutes late. Finally, I had set it up to shake to stop: the result was that I couldn’t get the alarm to turn off at all. I finally solved the problem by removing the app from my iPhone, never to be seen again. On the good side, the developers have been pleasant to deal with. Sorry guys but three strikes you’re out..Version: 3.5
✓ Doesn’t do what is say it doesI paid $$ for this app so I could play my selection of music with the alarm each morning. It never ever works, just plays the app default alarm. Very disappointed and frustrating that I am unable to get a refund for something that doesn’t perform as advertised. The developers have since contacted me with advise of how to rectify my problem. I feel this is very good customer service and will try out their advise..Version: 3.5
✓ Payé pour rienJ'ai payé pour pas de pop up et il y a encore des publicités.Version: 3.2
✓ AddsWent straight to paid version in order to have no adds. Yet there are adds everytime i turn off an alarm. And no free version is installed. Quite disapointed.Version: 3.2
✓ UpdateThis was a great app until the update. I go to turn off the alarm and the Red stop disappeared then I have to turn the phone off to stop it. Have tried to turn phone off altogether and restart it still does the same. If this keeps up until the weekend I'll then try an new alarm clock..Version: 3.0
✓ Pure trash. UpdatedUpdate, the objective of an app should be to improve the stock app on how good it can be, not try to be worse than the garbage stock app. The snooze doesn't even work properly. Now I have to buy a freaking alarm clock because all these apps including this one are so pathetic. Not sure why it's so difficult for someone to make an easy alarm. Support is non existent when emailing... though why I even need to get support is concerning. Phone locks up if you attempt to use your own sound for the alarm. Snoozing doesn't allow volume buttons to mute. You have to either open the app through the notification or through your home screen, shake, or do math... after clicking the notification. This is beyond unacceptable. To top it all off, it can't even override your phones silent mode... no option. This is simply terrible and should be standard. Those saying this is the best they've ever used have to be from the stone age. Granted it's somehow still better than the other garbage in the app store (most of which are just reformatted copies of the same ultra terrible app by the same two companies) and in some ways better than the trash stock alarm..Version: 3.5
✓ Waste of moneyFade in doesn’t work. Also, I tried selecting my own music for the alarm. It works when I preview the alarm but uses the default alarm sound when it actually goes off..Version: 3.5
✓ Not worth the moneyIt doesn't always sound the alarm in the morning. Which makes it unreliable. I've got a free alarm which works fine everyday and thought I'd try this as it has more features. The sleep countdown timer works fine but the morning alarm doesn't always sound and when I wake up I find it's snoozing?.Version: 3.2
✓ Awesome app with major flawThis app has many awesome features, one major flaw. I liked the looks and features of this app and purchased. It was after using it that I found out the app must be opened to work properly. I am a light sleeper and I don’t like waking to abrupt sounds. So I set the alarm, fade in and the lowest volume. I tested in the evening and it worked great. The next morning I was blasted out of bed. Long story short, if the app is open at night, phone plugged into to charge, then another app sends a notification. This app is sent to background and it is unable to recover it last state at the time of the alarm. The result is an alarm at default settings. If the developer corrects this, I would be willing to give 5 stars..Version: 3.3
✓ Utter rubbishDon’t waste your money on this piece of crap.Version: 3.5
✓ Good but pop ups are obtrusive even in paid versionGood app except when I turn off cellular data in settings please respect that. A bright white pop up in the middle of the night forcing me to open settings or turn cellular data back on is rude. If it’s off and you can’t get internet data, then do without until you can. Persistent notifications about leaving it running are annoying too. Tell me and give me the option to turn the notification off..Version: 3.5
✓ AwfulIt has no dimmer function and the snooze button has a mind of its own.Version: 3.2
✓ Alarm goes off 20 minutes after !Have emailed twice about this issue and no response, what’s the point of an alarm that doesn’t go off at the time you input?.Version: 3.5
✓ Needs an update ASAPApp is a good design but all features need to be able to be used when the app is closed!!!.Version: 3.5
✓ Useless after update to V3When this was updated on the 11 April it is now useless on my iPhone 6. I start the app and it starts but then just drops back to the home screen. The app is running in the background but as soon as I try to open it, crash!!! The update works fine on my iPad Pro. Prior to this update I would have given this app 4.5 stars because it was reliable as an alarm as well as a time piece to view during the night. I hope that somebody reads this and fixes it..Version: 3.0
✓ Violates its own rulesWhen you need to get up for work: MUST have sound on (so you can be woken up by texts and phone calls after you’ve gone to bed). MUST have app open (don’t forget, or it won’t go off!), MUST be the last app open before you close your phone (or, again, the alarm won’t go off!). When you want to sleep in: Will go off even if you have the app completely closed out of. This app is poorly designed and I wished it worked because I paid money for it..Version: 3.5
✓ Overall great, but has a bug lately with rotation and needs a fixI’ve had this alarm for a long time and overall I love it. Lately it doesn’t rotate to the horizontal clock face consistently. Maybe 50% of the time it won’t rotate at all and I have to close and open the app to get it to work. Hopefully the developers will fix this soon. There’s also something that could be improved with a little change. The stop and snooze buttons are easy to see and easy to click. BUT if you snooze, the stop button gets so tiny that it’s hard see and almost impossible to click if you want to turn it off before the snooze alarm goes off. It they made it bigger, it would be amazing! 5 stars if these two issues are fixed..Version: 3.5
✓ This is great when ads don’t drive you crazy!I’ve tried over and over to upgrade and just takes me to the App Store with the version I already have with the open button…no option to upgrade. Clicking upgrade in the app keeps taking me to this as well as when I go thru settings and click get full version no ads…I even went to the App Store and looked this alarm clock up, to find the ad free version and nothing but the one I have…guess I’m looking for another alarm clock…I’ve done all I can and I’m not doing ads anymore!.Version: 3.5
✓ Expensive for what it isThis is a good app, and support seems very prompt. However because I didn't want ads all night I bought it. I haven't tried any timers or alarms, but my main gripe is the brightness. Even at the dimmest setting it has a "designer" glow on the screen behind the numbers and is too bright for us it creates a glow in the room at night. Also while it can be used as a widget on IOS I can't set it as wallpaper so that it "automatically" comes on as a lockscreen when charging. I expected more for the money. Will be requesting a refund and buying a proper bedside clock with wireless charger..Version: 3.5
✓ Utterly uselessIt looks great BUT Due to the fact in order to work your phone needs to be awake and not on silent you can hear the steady stream of notifications for email/Facebook etc etc coming through to your phone as the do no disturb function needs to phone to be asleep to work. Ive therefore been constantly woke to through the night by notifications. To top it all off the alarm never even went off. Don't waste your money. Stick with the standard alarm clock..Version: 2.9
✓ Alarm ClockHaving paid for this app. I am disappointed that the clock cannot be set up to show the correct time. ITS A CLOCK.Version: 3.5
✓ Volume issues and app has to be always onI bought the app. Maybe I haven’t figured it out yet but you can’t have your phone on Do Not Disturb or the app doesn’t work and for someone who doesn’t like people calling in the middle of the night this won’t work for me. You also have to have the app on all night. You can dim the screen some, but doesn’t that risk screen burn in? This app is so promising with lots of great features, but.....Version: 3.5
✓ Paid for something that doesn’t workThumbs down for this app.Version: 3.5
✓ Silly alarmApp seems nice and all, but it doesn’t wake me up lol. I only wake to see a notification of my alarm that was suppose to wake me up, hours later then when I open the notification it starts the alarm. Feel ripped off. I can’t be in the application all day. It should work in the background..Version: 3.5
✓ Would've been 5 stars b4 last updateI've used this app for the last, 3 years. It has always worked great but, before the last update it would play the alarm at the volume I have it set at, now there is NO volume. It has a warning the vol. is too low, and that silent mode is activated. Mind you it is turned up to the halfway point. I can listen to anything else and the volume is correct. Don't know why they have to mess up a good app by trying to "make it better". Fail..Version: 3.2
✓ Alarm AppPurchased this App because Apple decided to change the alarm product on my phone. The new update was a flop as far as I'm concerned! This "gentle" wake up doesn't work for me! Purchased this App in hopes of a louder more appropriate "alarm". No help what so ever!! Had to go buy a cheap Alarm Clock because of this mess!!!.Version: 3.5
✓ Won’t play my musicAfter the most apple recent update, this defaults to the built-in tracks. I want listen to the music that I have set up with the alarms. Very disappointed. It happened with iPhone and iPad. I wrote the above review in June after an update, and it happened again! I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but it will not play the music I selected for my alarm. Will there be an update soon? I really hope so because I like this app, and paid for it..Version: 3.5
✓ No very goodTerrible it never goes off. It will only go off if you have your silencer on and do not disturb. With the normal apple alarm you don’t need that. I would not recommend..Version: 3.5
✓ Little DisappointedReally like all the features and options. Not happy that I have to have the app open, phone plugged in, and my volume on(phone has to be out of silent mode) in order to use during the night. This would be perfect if I didn’t have to leave my phone unlocked through the night and hear all other notifications. Or am I missing something? How do I request a refund as I just bought it today?.Version: 3.5
✓ Not what I wanted!Wanted music and all I get is a stupid sound!.Version: 3.5
✓ It ha s a mind of it’s ownI regret buying this app. I can’t stop it going off and will have to delete it after buying it!.Version: 3.5
✓ Worst Alarm I've ever tried to use!The clock\alarm is awful, somehow I have managed to get two installed on my phone. Contacting the App administrator is a joke, that mother$&@?!", doesn't take suggestions, prove helpful feedback, or make modifications to this App? I wish I could dump this App, but it may add another of these on my phone like the last time. This is Alarm Clock from Hell, and I paid for it and it's worst than the free version. If someone could help me with this App and not with empty promises I would just simply 😍. I am angry with reason...and seriously need help with this App, I've consulted the App Store trying to get help to remove this App, and it comes back double, instead of going away!.Version: 3.2
