Genius Alarm- Weather Smart Alarm Clock, Set up wake-up alarms according to the weather forecast! Reviews

So you can't use music as an alarm unless you pay and you can't use music as an alarm if you pay. With no way to test, I paid the $1.99. However when your phone goes to sleep, the alarm is the default annoying ringer. You have to get up, unlock your phone and only then will your music play. So I paid $1.99 for nothing I didn't have for free already. To make matters worse, the default alarm only rings for 20 secs maybe. So if you don't get up right then, you're going to oversleep. A complete ripoff.

I paid the $1.99 to upgrade to make sure my alarm would go off early if it was snowing. It pops up that the alarm is going off, but it does not make a sound and it does not vibrate. So it’s absolutely useless. Do not waste your money on this. (Also, I emailed support 3-4 days ago to ask what to do and I have not heard back.)

App does not seem to know what day it is. Reports "leftover time" incorrectly and then alarm doesn't go off in the morning. This makes it virtually useless. It's a good feature set- if it worked properly!

Good app, but it needs to have the ability to ring while the phone is on silent, like the stock clock app does.

I love it in concept. I was excited with the reminder feature. But, it didn't wake me up. Not sure if it stopped working altogether because it doesn't have a background mode or because the alarm doesn't "ring" when the phone is set to silent. Either way, I'm now up an hour later than I was supposed to be because it didn't wake me up...so it's worthless.

I have other suggestions too but won't bother mentioning them now. Get the basics right first.

I really like GeniusAlarmWeatherSmartAlarmClockSetupwakeupalarmsaccordingtotheweather. It really caught my attention when I listened to the alarm entitled, "Wake up or I'll scream." After playing that a dozen times, then for my friends, I decided to test its alarm quality and design.

GeniusAlarmWeatherSmartAlarmClockSetupwakeupalarmsaccordingtotheweather is laid out beautifully. The design is elegant and very iOS8. It's very easy to set (and choose) your alarm and time and weather filter. This by itself is worth 5 stars. BTW, the tutorials are easy to understand and follow.

So, where does it lose a star. The alarms only play through once. The essence of an alarm clock is to penetrate your dreams and eventually "annoy" you awake. If the alarm only plays once, the alarm clock loses a big chunk of its functionality. If you're not a light sleeper then you a likely going to fall back to sleep.

If this small but egregious point is fixed then this becomes a 5 star app.

Nice concept for an alarm allowing one to either set or disable based on weather conditions however it is based on weather reports. It will be awesome when it allows for something like wake me if the temperature falls below 35 degrees instead of just "snowy". Here it is often below freezing in the winter but clear skies - knowing when it's freezing would allow for parameters to keep the pipes safe and not waste water.

I love the concept, but two things missing. 1) needs a proper clock. It's less important to see the alarm time than the clock. If I roll over at night I want to be able to see what time it is. I already know what time my alarm is set for. 2) you really need landscape mode. Most people I know don't use a doc because they don't fit the iphone cases, so we have stands. Otherwise, it's great

It only has good features if you buy the pro version. Otherwise GeniusAlarmWeatherSmartAlarmClockSetupwakeupalarmsaccordingtotheweather is completely useless.

This is a great alarm clock, and I love the idea that brought it here, EXCEPT the fact that there is no way to make an alarm repeat from day to day. This seems like a major functionality of an alarm clock that is conspicuously missing in this particular app. If this could be incorporated in an update, then this would most likely get those 5 stars!

With additional options this could be super (eg temperature settings, multiple alarms, scheduling etc). For me the grammar issue ("there are -13° Celsius..." and "remainder" rather than "reminder") just makes me twitchy. This would be a very easy fix I think.

Love a lot of the features here, but it needs landscape mode, to see the clock time, not the alarm time. It also needs to fix typos etc. the voice part is odd in that it says "it's 2:21 o'clock, that's 75 degrees. Today's remainder is.."

It should not always say "o'clock" and the temp should say "it's 75 degrees" and they aren't "remainders" - they are "reminders"

It's also odd how you set the reminder. More like notes you want to give yourself than a reminder.

Like I said - lots of potential, but it's not something I'll switch over to yet.

I use GeniusAlarmWeatherSmartAlarmClockSetupwakeupalarmsaccordingtotheweather for my trips to the city from the mountains. I would have missed my flight without it!

"There are 26 degrees today are." This needs a little help with grammar but otherwise seems cool.

A wonderful alarm clock.

Good
