Not great anymore

2022-05-22

I loved AlarmClock until a few weeks ago. I am so disappointed. I really liked this alarm clock app. Recently it has stopped being useful. The clock no longer stays on. I can set the alarm, put my phone on its charging stand, and shortly the clock is gone my phone’s face is blank. When (if) the alarm goes off, the phone is still blank. I have to take my phone off the charger, and type in my password before the clock comes back on and I can hit the snooze or off button. This is not a good thing. Also, I can not rely on the alarm sounding. Previously it was reliable. Whether I had my phone on silent or not the alarm (I use music from my collection) would sound. I prefer my sound to be off so that random, notifications, alerts, messages, etc. do not disturb my sleep.

Used to be good

2022-06-23

I’ve had AlarmClock for years, but the past few months the alarm randomly doesn’t go off. Yes, I know how to use it, yes my volume is ON, yes my volume is UP, yes the alarm is SAVED, yes AlarmClock is OPEN all night as I use the clock and yes, I keep it UPDATED. So unfortunately, my grandson has been late to school too many times- thanks to AlarmClock. So I have no other choice but to replace AlarmClock with a RELIABLE one. Sad, this used to be a great, reliable app, but isn’t anymore. Please, use AlarmClock with caution. Forewarned IS forearmed! Do not rely on this alarm for work or school. If it’s alright if you over-sleep, go for it. But to me, what is the point of an alarm clock if it’s NOT RELIABLE? You usually set an alarm because you must get up at a certain time for a reason. It’s like playing Russian Roulette with AlarmClock, sometimes the set alarm will go off, sometimes for days or even weeks without any issues, then BOOM! It just doesn’t go off at all. It’s hit or miss. It’s your choice, just know you may be late or miss that appointment with AlarmClock. I really hope they fix the issue, as this was the only alarm I used for years. Cheers!

Great!! A alarm clock that doesn’t go off...

2022-07-24

What’s the point of having an alarm clock where you can customize out the yin yang but the one basic function that it supposed to do doesn’t work...? I bought the upgrade to get rid of ads and I changed all my settings to be exactly to what the instructions says so the alarm will go off at 6am everyday while playing my playlist. Instead, I get a banner at 6am stating the alarm is going off and another banner a minute later and another???!!! Banners aren’t going to wake me up. The only way I can get it to work is to leave my iPhone and app on all night...who the hell does this. It’s like leaving your car on all night so you can drive it the next morning?? It’s insane. The best thing about that is if you forget to plug it up, it’s drains your battery so the phone is dead the next morning. Can’t you guys set it to where it turns on while AlarmClock is locked. It should be the simplest process...

How do U screw up the best Clock App available?

2022-08-25

This has normally been the BEST Free iPhone Clock App—for many years—UNTIL some genius decided to implement Full Page ADS, triggered randomly but frequently, with infuriating latency, right after Stopping an Alarm. This makes it FAR too easy to inadvertently trip a Weblink to the advertiser—among several fatal flaws in this terribly short sighted & irredeemable design change. Do NOT deceive yourself: there is no “right” way to implement this concept. It is fundamentally a BAD Idea!

Oh, totally unrelated, your team also managed to leave behind a tiny programming bug, at least in this last App Version: upon Choosing IN App to Rate AlarmClock, it causes this Write a Review screen to Display in an almost completely UNREADABLE, White on kinda Light Sand color Format, which Dark Mode could NOT Redeem. I know: I’m embarrassed for AND with you! I was barely able to write THIS Review, and regret not being able to itemize more of the Positive aspects of an App I still like! Honestly, that’s the MAIN reason I stuck with it this far—along with sheer stubbornness—I HATED the idea of leaving a Low Rating with NO explanation. :-)
Please FIX this thing, so I can write the 5-star Review you guys AND AlarmClock deserve!

Not liking bright light

2022-09-26

When I got AlarmClock , I thought I would like that interphase, because it shows a black screen with blue numerous.
Bright light in the middle of the night makes it harder to go back to sleep.
But I downloaded AlarmClock , and what I see in addition to that now, if I check what time it is in the middle of the night, I get up bright white advertising, in addition to that time of night, and that is just far too stimulating, far too much light for a Clock You would use that late at night
I’m going to look for another clock that is not so bright because of advertising.
With AlarmClock, you might as well turn the light on and look at the clock. No thanks.

Worse than before

2022-10-27

I agree with calicokisses. AlarmClock is getting worse instead of better. I have also used it for years with good results. Recent updates have caused it to miss alarms unless you are very careful. For instance, stopping an alarm then setting a new time and saving can cause the new alarm time to fail. Closing AlarmClock and restarting seems to help enable the new alarm time. Definitely a big. Further and worse is I have the paid version without ads. Recent updates have cause an ad to show a full screen ad upon starting AlarmClock , seems like once a day. No fair changing this after paying and having no ads for years!!!! Should have one starred for that.

Worked great for years, now locks up

2022-11-28

I’ve been suing AlarmClock as my Go-to for years. In the past 2 months it has locked up 3 times and has not gone off in the morning. Usually my wife’s alarm 45 mins later wakes me up and I’ll look at the display and it is fixed on “11:38 PM” even though it’s 5:45 in the am. I am a medical professional and it is unacceptable for me to be late for work. I go to bed around 10:30 so I’m not sure why it locks on 11:38. I have the volume up, I have the latest update and it works most days so I know the settings are correct. Unfortunately it not dependable enough for me to keep using.

Like don’t like

2022-12-29

I’ve been using AlarmClock for a little over a year, it was just fine until it all of a sudden started going off even when AlarmClock isn’t open. I have two alarms set for during the week. It used to be that if the first alarm woke me and I exited AlarmClock it would stay dormant. Now the second alarm goes off no matter what. It’s woken my baby up twice, and I’m starting to simply get annoyed at AlarmClock in general because of it. It doesn’t matter what I do to the settings, it goes off no matter what. I even turned it off in “notifications.” AlarmClock overrides that setting and goes off no matter what. I’m probably just going to get a different one.

Update: the developer contacted me and asked if I turned the settings off in notifications. Despite my review saying it was off in notifications. I mean I can’t even wrap my head around that. I’m done with AlarmClock.

Having issues

2023-01-30

I really liked AlarmClock because it did everything you need for free! But lately it's been more frustrating than anything. It's hit and miss as to when it decides to go off. Most of the time it works but more and more lately it just doesn't go off. I'll set the alarm and I can see it in there but many times I over sleep and the alarm never went off, and it is still showing in there as if it has yet to go off. Very frustrating, hopefully this can be fixed because I really like AlarmClock!

Pop up ads

2023-03-03

I don’t mind ads at the bottom, they’ve always been there, but all of a sudden with this last update the ads pop up while the clock is on and they won’t shut down, full ads that take over the entire screen… Now I have to close down the clock and then reload it in order for the ad to stop. I’ve had AlarmClock for quite a few years and I’ve been extremely happy. It just started doing this within this past week and it’s going to make me delete AlarmClock and pick another one that doesn’t have ads popping up on the whole screen

Good but an irritating flaw

2023-04-01

I like AlarmClock but for one thing: when I'm playing music and the alarm goes off, it stops the music and does not resume. When I re-open the music app, the "now playing" icon is missing!! This forces me to shut down the music app then restarting it, whereby the "now playing" icon reappears and I can listen to the music again. Please fix this!

A second flaw: I get anywhere from four to eight banner reminders of an alarm going off, when simply one will suffice, especially given the volume I require for my bad hearing.

More ads and now they have sounds

2023-05-03

Update: I appreciate AlarmClock developers response to my review below. Also, they have fixed the ad pop ups after every click and so far, I haven’t had a noisy ad either. It’s nice to see companies take critiques and make a positive change. Thank you.

Old review below:
I have used this alarm app for years and it was my favorite. The free version. I understand that with “free” comes some minor inconvenience, but with the newest update, I can’t even save my alarm settings without an ad pop up and now they also have additional ad sounds. It’s ridiculous. I feel if you have been a dedicated user of a product, the makers should be able to “grandfather” in those customers. I have seen the scroll ads at the bottom of my screen for years, but like I said, now there’s an ad if I set an alarm or switch a setting. I will be searching for a new alarm. Incredibly disappointed.

Worked perfectly!

2023-06-03

The stock alarm's music is so light, and just becomes nice background music to sleep to, so I wondered if there was a free app that would allow me to set my own music (metal) to wake up to. This one came up. It promised to do what I was looking for, and it's not a large size.
The only reason I gave it 4 stars though is because there isn't much when it comes to instructions-I had to figure it out mostly on my own.
I set the stock alarm for another time, just in case, but it wasn't needed. This one set of right at the time set. Beautiful!

Started working again!

2023-07-05

I used AlarmClock to wake for a long long time and then it stopped working reliably, I’m guessing because of something Apple did during an iOS update. It took some time, but the developer updated AlarmClock and fixed it. So grateful, this is the only app I’ve found that plays my own music, and will fade in slowly. Waking up is a tricky business for me and this really does the trick. Thanks again!

Good alarm app

2023-08-05

Not quite great, but still 5 star. You can set multiple alarms for multiple days of the week, but you can't set for specific dates. You can link to your iTunes and wake up to music, which I like very much. The only problem I've had is that sometimes the music won't play. The stop and snooze buttons come up, but no music to awaken me. It's happened a few times, but not enough to make me get a different app. I've tried a number of other alarm apps, and this one is my fav. All told, a big thumbs up!

Loved until pop-up ads took over

2023-09-06

I love the ability to dim the light of the clock. I use it all the time as my bed side clock and morning timer. Unfortunately pop-up ads started taking over the screen and made it hard to use. Paid the $1.99 to upgrade to full version after reading it removed ads, but it didn’t... :( I want my 2 bucks back and the clock that I loved. Keep banner ads, but pop-ups are obnoxious!

So glad the app is fixed!

2023-10-08

I have happily used AlarmClock for years but was forced to use another alarm app when there were issues. I could find no other that compared in features and performance. When I realized it seemed repaired I ran another alongside to be sure until I was satisfied. Not sure when it was actually fixed but I am just glad it is. AlarmClock is the very best alarm clock. Thank you!!

Totally dependable

2023-11-08

I have had AlarmClock for a bit over a 1 1/2 years I have used it at home and on the go, on vacation why’ll staying at hotels or with family, it has always gone off on time, all though AlarmClock must remain open but the new background photos are pleasant specially in low light as not to be bothersome at night. The only thing I would absolutely love to see improvement on is the tones. I would love to wake up to bird sounds or beach sounds not just the run of the mill chirp chime ding or beeps. Any ideas on this update for my alarm favorite app?

Latest Update fixed the Ad issue!

2023-12-10

Update to my review!
The developer has fixed the Ad issue which was my prior complaint. Thanks to the developer for the quick response and quick fix!
Prior complaint:
I’ve had this clock app for about a year and since the last update. Tried doing a restore in app purchase and it showed Restore Succeeded your purchase has been restored! But the ad’s keep reappearing! Don’t purchase this if you are thinking it’s ad free!

Disappointed

2024-01-10

I have been using the free app for years. It has started to freeze up when the alarm is supposed to go off. I like AlarmClock so much, I bought it. I set the alarm, added my music, and the exact same thing happened. When my alarm is supposed to go off, the screen freezes, and not Happens. Except for the ad, that keeps going, and I purchased the upgrade, so I thought the ad would be gone. Really disappointed.

New upgrade buggy

2024-12-16

To Developers,
My wife and I have used your app on our iPhone 6s for a number of years. Have been very pleased up until recently. When you rolled out this new UI all of a sudden our phones will not stay awake at night.

We use your app as both an alarm and a clock. The alarm still seems to work but the phone goes to sleep after a few minutes so therefore we can’t see the clock. Then when the alarm goes off we have to unlock our phones to either stop the alarm or snooze.

As I said this started happening to both of our phones.

I set a test alarm on my phone this morning to check and it did the same thing. Went to sleep after 3 mins.

Please fix! Otherwise app is useless.
