Wake N Shake Alarm Clock Reviews

The concept of WakeNShakeAlarmClock is great! I have an awful time waking up in the morning and somehow manage to snooze my alarms while still asleep. WakeNShakeAlarmClock definitely wakes me up since I can’t snooze it. I like that there are different alarm sounds so you don’t get too used to it. However, my biggest issue with WakeNShakeAlarmClock is that you have to keep WakeNShakeAlarmClock open on the screen in order for the alarm to work. I really wish I could keep it in open in the background instead. I would give WakeNShakeAlarmClock 5 stars if it made this feature available. I often wake up in the middle of the night and check my my phone, I’m afraid I’ll forget to pull WakeNShakeAlarmClock back up and not have the alarm go off!

Great app! U used to do several stiff pillows to get me up, but now I just do one Kablow and I am wide awake.

I have two concerns about WakeNShakeAlarmClock, first. I might mess it up by not trying it on, or turning off my phone screen. Second, I have had WakeNShakeAlarmClock not wake me up because a pop up notification happens during the night like “this accessory is not supported” and I wake up late. If I don’t wake up on time and I can’t follow my morning schedule I can’t get my workout done for the day. Can’t have that happen. Six pack isn’t going to make itself.

I have used WakeNShakeAlarmClock for the past 10 weeks only on weekdays so that’s 50 days. I think I’ve messed it up or WakeNShakeAlarmClock messed up to miss at least 5 workouts.

Love the idea, but until it works 100% of the time I will go back to my traditional alarm bell clock.

It’s a great idea, but WakeNShakeAlarmClock is SOO difficult to use. I tried to set a multi day alarm but have no idea if it worked. There’s no “navigation” as it says when you open it, or maybe it just doesn’t make sense to me. Either way, I’m glad I didn’t pay for it bc I’d be asking for a refund. There’s just no way I could rely on an alarm clock that has to be reset every day bc I can’t figure out how to get the multi day one to work, I am 1,000% sure I would forget and then be late to work. Like I said it’s a great idea, in theory, but the execution needs a little help.

Great concept, totally love and use it at least a few nights each week. But it needs some work to really be great. 1) have to leave screen on (unlocked) and app open. Otherwise app doesn’t work right. This is a problem because iCloud backup only occurs if iPhone is LOCKED. So if you use WakeNShakeAlarmClock at night, phone will not backup at night. 2) Some minor bugs. For example, during time change, alarm went off 1 hour too late. I set two alarms when I use WakeNShakeAlarmClock, just in case.

On my iPhone X I attempt to leave WakeNShakeAlarmClock on all night long until morning, but it fails to wake me because for some odd reason my phone will shut off at some point through out the night. Not cause my battery is dead, cause when I wake up, my phone turns right on. I wake up late quite often. My work around is to leave WakeNShakeAlarmClock in my recent apps. And not on the main screen before I go to bed, however this is not a 100% work around. I’d really like some feedback because I paid for it, but it’s not exactly working.

I have been working super long days and turned into a late arriving, snooze hitting zombie. We’re talking an hour plus of alarms every six minutes. WakeNShakeAlarmClock had me out of bed and moving within one minute. Five stars!

Nothing else besides cold water can do it otherwise.... only issue is that you have to leave screen open..... and every once in a while you forget.... would be nice if it would go of regardless of on screen or not

I’ve been using WakeNShakeAlarmClock for years without many issues but I’ve recently noticed that the sleep screen has caused noticeable burn in on my XS max screen. User error on my end but still pretty annoying.

Please update for a dark screen when sleeping to reduce energy use

The alarm itself is fine, but it doesn’t seem to go away after I deleted it. It don’t know how to stop the alarm from setting off

How about an update after 2 years ??!!

Best alarm clock been using it for 4 years now.

The advertising for WakeNShakeAlarmClock is so misleading. WakeNShakeAlarmClock is meant for people who need a hardcore alarm in order to wake up, I was looking for something that was a bit more work to turn off, etc.

First of all, to all of you that are complaining that you have to shake too much to stop the alarm, that's why it's called "Wake N Shake", the shaking is supposed to wake you up. It's not suppose to be used as a timer. And shaking it to get pass the welcome screen just shows you how strong you have to shake, but you can change the intensity. If you hate shaking up your phone, why even bother getting WakeNShakeAlarmClock ? Just use the alarm clock that's already set in the phone if you can't handle it. -.-

Second, I would give WakeNShakeAlarmClock a five star if you guys fix the alarm part when I pick a music playlist. When the alarm set off, the volume of the song was loud at the first second, but then went down to where it's barely audible, even when I set the volume to full blast. (You might think I'm crazy that I want an ear splitting alarm, but this actually helps me wake up for the day :D).

I had to turn off my phone for it to shut up cause it wasn't turning off. I tried to shake it but it still was not turning off! Don't download WakeNShakeAlarmClock!

nice program

WakeNShakeAlarmClock does not work well, there is apps that works well for free if you seek. My only fell is that I put $5 inside the trash.

for some reason WakeNShakeAlarmClock stopped working! at first the screen wouldn’t lock overnight so my 6:15 and 6:20 alarms would go off without a hitch but now the screen locks. WakeNShakeAlarmClock works great for naps but for some reason it stopped working for overnight endeavors

I used to love WakeNShakeAlarmClock but it stopped working for me

Bad

Only think keeping it at 4 stars for me is having to leave it foregrounded all night. Surely there should be a workaround for this in swift somewhere.
