Best app ever
The world’s best app
I’m lying
★★★★ Shisoka722 3/8/2025 v12.8
Purchase only
The app is free to download, but you have to pay to even set an alarm. Don’t waste your time unless you want to spend the money.
★★★★ Mille.Cov 2/11/2025 v12.8
READ BEFORE GETTING!!!!!
In my opinion it’s just bad bc you need to subscribe just to SET AN ALARM like really!? it would be fine if you needed to subscribe to do better stuff but NO TO SAT A ALARM JUST NO PLEASE DONT BUY

Have to pay for every feature
I downloaded the app for the math feature on wake up, to make myself get up. However, each of the functions that make this app worthwhile are locked behind a pay wall, rendering it useless otherwise.
★★★★ Issy89/70 11/22/2024 v12.4
Hate this app.
Turns out, everything is for pay. Big regret.
★★★★ CWalker67 9/28/2024 v12.0
Intrusive “rate this app” pop up even with paid membership.
Do not recommend.
★★★★ Okxinfinity 8/22/2024 v11.9
Don’t know yet
Why ask before I use it????
★★★★ Wolfe-Garrett 8/19/2024 v11.8
Simply doesn’t work
I got it just for the QR code scanning option and it doesn’t work. Scans the code, but doesn’t appear as a possible selection. Then when you try to scan it again it says it already exists even though there are no entries in the list. Nonfunctional.
★★★★ Yhdsj cdgj 7/21/2024 v11.7
Horrible app
When I first got the app I assumed that the premium would be for special features only to find out that you need premium to simply set an alarm. It was shocking to me that such a basic and standard alarm with nothing special would expect you to pay for the main feature that you downloaded it in the first place. The other reviews say that it wakes them up as kind of a way to promote the app, but that’s the bare minimum of an alarm app and if your app is one where you have to pay to get an alarm, you should seriously rethink your decisions.
★★★★ CaNoMo25 6/19/2024 v11.5
Good idea, terrible app
When you set alarms, they go off whenever they feel like it rather than the set time. The app constantly badgers you to leave a review, at least 3 times every time you open it. The idea for a good app was there, but the effort was pathetic. This is the first review I’ve ever left on an app, and it’s because they refused to stop asking me to leave one.
★★★★ asmy_0591 5/30/2024 v11.3
Hate how I’m forced to review
Literally every 2 seconds the survey screen pops up. But still giving 3 stars because I like the idea of having to do some task before deactivating the alarm
★★★★ Wannabbigloser 5/21/2024 v11.2
Read this
This app does not let you set an alarm without subscribing or in app purchase it is not worth it
★★★★ Art Everywhere 5/14/2024 v11.2
Extremely annoying
This app will not allow me to simply set an alarm. It forces me to say whether I love it and will write a review before it will set the alarm. So here’s my review. This is extremely annoying.
★★★★ Raccoons 🦝 4/23/2024 v10.9
You have to pay
In order to even use the app and actually set an alarm you have to buy a membership like what?!! But before I even used it for one night it was already like “ DO YOU LIKE THIS APP “ like be quiet I haven’t even used the dang app.
★★★★ lol app tester 3/21/2024 v10.6
Ugggg
I literally just downloaded this app and every time I click on you asked me to write this with you so here you go I'm writing this with you if you want to change any updates in this app, maybe ask once and they say no then don't ask again because literally, I cannot use this app without writing a review every five seconds, literally not joking.
★★★★ Freudstrated gramma 3/13/2024 v10.6
Misleading
After you download the app you find out, it is not free. You have to pay after a short trial not worth the effort. be upfront.
★★★★ Unhappy Alarm App tryer 2/16/2024 v10.4
Alarm App
Very awful. Why do I have to pay for a free app to set an alarm????? boooooooo
★★★★ Idhebjs8187:& 2/7/2024 v10.4
Money
This sucked. I have to pay for everything even the ALARM! Am I literally can’t use anything because you have to pay! 😫

Worst app ever
Worst thing ever it doesn’t even work the alarm clock doesn’t even work lol
★★★★ vida Sullivan 🥴 1/23/2024 v10.3
Stupid
I got this app so that I could wake up for school and it said that In order to set an alarm I needed to pay the $29.99 subscriptions witch is stupid because it 30$ for an alarm clock that I NEED. So i deleted the app
★★★★ ur dont know me 1/23/2024 v10.3
Bad
Never made any sound at all
★★★★ 🫥fhjdjdjskj❤️ 1/18/2024 v10.3
Why not free

★★★★★ Jeweyjan 11/21/2025 v14.0
Ineffective
The alarm sounds once, pauses for 15 seconds and then sounds again. Matching and math seems to dismiss the alarm as intended. If you use the barcode to dismiss the alarm, it doesn’t dismiss. It continued to sound without any option to dismiss it, until I finally uninstalled the app. I’ve already been charged for a month long subscription so I’m especially irritated.
★★★★★ Callie Nicole muntz 11/7/2024 v12.2
Hi
I like it
★★★★★ Laurie457 5/5/2024 v11.1
well made but....
so quick story short it wasn't letting me use the alarm clock it was telling me to get the subscription to actually use the alarm clock and I'm just trying to find a good alarm clock app that wakes up the brain I feel like this actually kinda wrong to actually just need to have a subscription to actually use something that the app meant for I just feel like this is just weird💀
★★★★★ Logs chad 2/11/2024 v10.4
Instant ads, and review requests.
Well here is my review. Went to set up the app and create an alarm. I was instantly greeted with ads after every click and the question “does alarm help you wake up at perfect time”
★★★★★ I not say.. 1/11/2024 v10.2
Idk
Maybe it good I have not use it but I think it is
★★★★★ Coraagarciaa 1/8/2024 v10.2
Glitches so much
It takes forever to shut off alarm. Ads keep popping up so I close them and literally a second later they come back
