Great app. Alarms can be so jarring, scaring you awake suddenly, but this nature imitating alarm is relaxing and effective. Gradually helps my brain and my body to become aware and wake up in a natural and peaceful state. My favorite wake-up setting is to sunrise and birds chirping. If you have trouble falling asleep, there are settings to help you gently drift off. Also has ALOT of extra features if you wind up getting the premium version. Useful and well thought out app.

So many great ideas, such terrible execution. I wasted $12.00 removing ads and getting access to more sound choices. But the sound function is totally unreliable. Even when the alarm is set for sound and no light, the only thing that comes on is the light, sometimes pulsing. I'm going to keep it - the place where I spend time in the summer has very little ambient light in the bedroom, so the light is useful, but I need to find something else if I really need to get up.

Nickel and dime app. $5 to remove the ads $7 to unlock alarms $5 for alarm sounds. It's crazy and a bit of a turn off. I still use it but can't explore the features as it requires a monthly subscription. Update 11/19/24 I don't know what happened to it but the slide to turn off does not work anymore. I literally have to force close it every time to stop the alarm. Really annoying.

Truthfully, I'd give the app 4.5. It really works as intended and very simplistic. I am unsure whether you can have the background sound on nightstand mode automatically turn off after a certain amount of time but I haven't found a solution yet. Perhaps that's not available on the free version. Truthfully, I'd give it a 4.5 and if they had that auto off function, it'd be a 5.

This alarm wakes me up without waking my husband. I had a day off work and realized I forgot to turn off my alarm. This gave me an ad in the middle of the night when I was trying to shut my alarm off. Seems like there are too many ads. I wish the pro version was cheaper, or this version had less inconvenient ads. This is supposed to be an easy, gentle wake-up, not ad in my face, waking me up like it has become.

(After contacting the developer as instructed, the issue was promptly resolved.) This is a great app! I love the options available for different sounds. And there are lots of other options for snooze, too! I've only purchased a few add-ons and it fits all I need and then some! I also like that you can purchase the individual components without having to buy a whole slew of options for a higher price. Give it a try - I think you'll be surprised at the flexibility and variety this app has!
