Sleep Time+ Cycle Alarm Timer Reviews

by Lovingorca

I get up several times a night to use the restroom and SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer doesn't recognize or record truly when I'm awake I wasted my money on SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer and I want a refund. It doesn't track right. Therefore you shouldn't be charging for SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer. It also wakes me up an hour before My alarm is set to go off. I would really like to see an Apple Watch app added to SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer. It would help your sleep time++ work better. I spoke to one guy through your Argus that uses a fit bit. So I ran a little test of my own. I put my Apple Watch on its charger in evening to give it a full charge before my bed time and there was orange at the time I got up for a nature call. But it still doesn't turn orange at the end when the alarm goes off to wake me, indicating when I'm awake. Bottom line, this still needs a lot of work. Suggestion: how about adding a sound recording feature. So people can learn if they talk in their sleep or snore or have apnea. SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer is not worth the money. you lie in the diagram. it's never been accurate. I wasted my money. And when I messaged through facebook you just gave me the run around.

SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer is worthless. I paid $1.99 for an app that does almost nothing without a subscription. The only reason I downloaded it was because I have Virgin Pulse for work and it’s the only sleep tracker that is compatible. It doesn’t use data from my Apple Watch and you apparently have to set the alarm for it to track your sleep. I went three nights and wondered why there was no sleep data and all it says on there is to sleep for the first night and then come back and you’ll have data. I don’t need another alarm clock. I just wanted something to track my sleep and tell virgin pulse how much sleep I got.

Ever since I updated to the most recent version, if I set an alarm and switch to a different app, when I come back to the alarm it’s just a blank white screen which means I can’t turn the alarm off to get my sleep insight. It completely removes any chance of getting my night’s data. This never happened prior to the update. I used to be able to set my alarm, switch over to the kindle app, read til I fell asleep, and then go back to the alarm in the morning and turn it off and find out how I slept the night before. Now, if I switch from the alarm to the kindle app and then back, even within a span of five minutes, the screen goes white. It’s awful! PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer is wonderful when it works. I wake up feeling refreshed! I didn't realize that in addition to getting enough hours of sleep, I also needed to wake up in the right part of my sleep cycle. Unfortunately, after this last update, SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer quits in the middle of the night and doesn't wake me up or track any of my sleep. Also, I was very disappointed to find that I paid for SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer a very long time ago and recently they added a subscription fee and locked features that I paid to unlocked. Very disappointing! I will be looking into a different sleep cycle app.

The alarm doesn’t work correctly — part of the gimmick is it’ll wake you gently so as to allow you to not have sleep recoil. Tell me how playing bursts of sound is doing that because I’m just as tired when waking. Also, allow your users some functionality on things; for example, allow us to record our heart rate when we want in the event we sleep in beyond your “scheduled” reading. And give us day of the week control so we can set the alarm for the days we need it based on our schedule, not the assumption we work the same day/time each week.
This is really a bad app for $30 a year but I had no choice since my employer is using a health tracking system that uses this to help us live better and save on insurance.

I paid for SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer a long time ago and a while back started getting ads for the premium service... after I already paid to get rid of ads. Well, I’m annoyed with the push for premium almost every night I launch SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer . I paid already, for the 4 pack I believe... why update and require more money?

Besides paying to get rid of ads, but still getting ads, SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer works as expected and interestingly accurate. I know when I wake up in the middle of the night, it actually has the time recorded.

I've been using SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer for years as my alarm and to help gauge the quality of sleep I get.

A new "feature" has occurred. After doing a "snooze", If I happen to double tap the home key to go check my calendar before resting a bit longer until the next snooze, if you double tap to go back, the alarm tab is a blank white screen. When the alarm goes off there are no buttons to press. The only way to turn the alarm off is to close SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer and lose that night's data. Pretty lame to have an alarm clock that you can't turn off.

I’ve had the free version of SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer for about 2 years, and I used to really love it but recently it’s not been tracking my sleep correctly. I started getting insomnia 3 months ago and it hardly ever recognizes the 3-5 times I wake up. I’ll even actually get out bed or play on my phone and it’ll tell me I didn’t wake up at all. Nothing’s changed in how I’ve been using it so I’m not really sure why it’s not analyzing all of this. I keep it somewhat near me on my bed like it says to.

I do love the alarm in the morning though, it’s made waking up less stressful.

In the latest update, you re-introduced the issue I have had where I pick up my phone in the morning, my iPhone 6 Plus screen is black and unresponsive. It seems that the screen and it’s touch features are the only thing that is turned off, as I can still say “hey Siri“ and she responds.

Also, a knew bug introduced is that the Insights icon in the lower left corner will only close SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer off the screen, and I can never get to the insights page with this update. When I double tap my home button, SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer is still running and I can bring it back up. All the other icons are functioning normally.

Yes, I know I have a “older“ phone, but I really do not want to give Apple $1,000 at this time in my life.

The Sleep Time app has been so worth the little bit of money I paid for it. I am a poor sleeper and I can tell from the analysis how frequently I am disturbed by children or dogs or life. I would do better to get eight hours of sleep a night, but, I'm so busy. I like the gentle wake-up best. So much better than a traditional alarm on the nightstand.

I use SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer every night in addition to my Fitbit sleep log. The two sets of data consistently match up, so I'm assuming it is fairly accurate. SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer has locked up on me once so I always set my regular alarm to go off at a slightly later time for back up. With SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer running overnight your automatic iOS updates will not install.

I’ve used SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer for around seven years now and it’s the only alarm that I’ll wake up to. I love it because it starts low and gradually gets louder. I hate being woken up by typical alarms that just go right off at full volume. I’ve used SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer with the phone laying on my bed (as it suggests for the best reading) and ok my night stand. When on my bed I can accurately tell when I move or wake up or when I’m still and sound asleep. It’s very accurate. I’ve since moved to placing it on my night stand instead because I no longer need to see all the extra data. Instead I now only use it as an alarm and sleep time tracker (to see how long I sleep each night). This is my favorite sleep app and I doubt I’ll ever use another one.

I’ve been using this for at least a year now. A very reliable alarm and I feel it’s pretty accurate recording the quality of my sleep. I did try to use a song from my library as the alarm once and I could not hear it when it went off...thus, I was late to work. So I just use the alarm sounds they provide and I’ve never had a problem. Great app!

I am NOT a morning person. I have been using SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer about two months. The first morning that I was gently woken up by the subtle sounds, I hopped out of bed, made my coffee and was kind to others (not normal for me!) it has been a continuous happy journey. SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer has changed my morning life and I am so grateful. I feel more rested and aware of the things that affect my sleep.

I wasn’t really into “healthy lifestyle” until there was a company program that we actually get paid staying fit. And part of that “staying fit” are ways to improve sleep and being productive and staying healthy. This was app is the accredited app for our program. At first I don’t get it but eventually the program started changing how I view “building a healthy lifestyle”.

by Jhsnrandomopkdtnds

I’m sorry but updating SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer really screwed me over. I paid for this bs. And now you’re wanting me to pay monthly to use the basic features I had since I paid for SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer? You can’t use most of the features you use to now so you basically just scammed me. This isn’t what I paid for and I will be looking into getting refunded cause this was wrongfully done by a money hungry company😤.

I have always struggled with waking up. I have often had two or three alarms in my room to insure I get up on time. I can sleep through a radio or a buzzer going full blast for the full hour that the alarm is sounding and actually will incorporate that sound into my dreaming. With SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer, it knows when I am close to waking up and it gently nudges me to wake up fully. I would have never believed it, but it works.

by Donovandeej

I have been using SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer for a couple years now and it's great. I would say my quality of sleep has improved and I can tell how my nights of sleep affect my waking hours and productivity. Now I have an Apple Watch that would be perfect for SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer but there's no companion for it. I don't mind continuing to use SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer on my phone but I feel the company is missing out on other aspects that can be monitored like heart rate and more accurate movement tracking. Please develop an Apple Watch companion!

I read a few reviews and from what I gathered there were bad reviews they were rebutting. I stopped reading. I'm not going to waste my time reading negatives about a great program. Frankly I don't care what it does for anyone else as long as there are enough happy users to keep them in business.
I wake up refreshed no matter how little or how much time I have to sleep.
I can't explain how the system works, but it does. Not once in awhile, but every time. Don't be fooled by buffoons who have another mission.
Good sleep combined with nutrition and exercise is more valuable than the vast majority seems to realize.

I read previous reviews of this application, and I do not agree. The application does not assess what is going on for you during your sleep cycle. That part is up to you. All SleepTimeCycleAlarmTimer does is to provide you with the necessary information so that you can assess your sleeping patterns, cycle and how you feel in the morning. With that being said, the application delivers everything that the publisher states it will. I would recommend this to anyone who wishes to assess their sleep cycles as to maybe why in the morning they wake up, and they don't feel all that well. Or they wake up and they feel great, and this way they can reassess what and how well they slept so that they can get another great night of sleep.
Worth every penny.
