App does not work and then they won’t grant me a refund
App does not work. It lets me snooze and then I fall back asleep immediately. They charged me $20 and I asked for a refund immediately and they denied it. So now I have a 1 year subscription that I was automatically enrolled it for an app and doesn’t work. I deleted it after using the app only a few times.
Subscription Service
I tried out the free trial and canceled before it renewed to the 29.99 a year, for some reason it didn’t cancel and now i cannot download any new/old apps without having to pay 29.99 when i didnt even want to use it for a year, this is outrageous, i didnt want it for a year i was just trying it out and for it to try and bill me after i canceled is crazy
Don’t waste your money on an app that doesn’t work
I’ve tried many alarm clock apps and I had high hopes for this one. I downloaded this app thinking it would be helpful, I was wrong. The main problem is it doesn’t work! The scan item feature is absolutely useless. I could literally scan anything and it’ll shut the alarm off, even if I’m scanning the incorrect item! As someone who has an extremely difficult time waking up in the mornings, this app is just useless to me because it’s too easy to cheat the missions. I stupidly paid for the annual subscription after only 2 days of using the app and by the end of the week I learned how to cheat all the missions and now I’m out $30 because they refuse to give me a refund. Don’t even waste your time downloading the app, there are better options out there.
Why do we have to pay money.
I'm being so fr.
I would use this app if you didn't had to subscribe...

No good
It will not work and I was hoping it worked
Why does every app charge
Wanted a different alarm clock app cause the regular IOS alarm randomly doesn’t work and this one caught my eye. Im getting really sick of every app you get wants to charge you a subscription. It’s literally an alarm clock app. I’ll get something else.
Scanning feature more annoying than useful
Whatever program you guys are using to identify the objects in the scanning feature is obviously not smart. First of all if I’m already awake and I’m in my car driving obviously I’m not in my house and I can’t take any pictures of my refrigerator. The whole point of the app is to wake you up from sleeping, so if I’m doing an activity where I would have to be awake, it should be able to shut my alarm off and make an exception Also, when I wake up, it’s not very bright outside and I don’t wanna turn all the lights on, so I tried to take the pictures with just a little bit of light on and it can never tell what I’m taking a picture of.
Makes you pay
I got the app excited to be able to start making myself get out of bed on time. I had already finished setting it up when it asked me to pay for a subscription or do a 3 day trial. I don’t want to pay for an alarm app and I am not gonna do a trial for only 3 days
U have to pay
So aonoyed
No money for u
It should be free you are paying for nothing special
Not free
I was sad because I saw this app on snapchat and thought it looked annoying at first and then realized I could actually use something like this, but when I went to set it up, I answered all like… 8-ish questions and then it said I could start a free trial before having to pay $29.99 a month. I was really disappointed because I’m sure, as other reviews say, I lot of people, including me, could’ve used this, had it been free.
disappointed
i was so excited to try this out because i've always struggled with getting up on time so I answered all the questions all for it to ask me to pay. i'm really disappointed because ive been looking for an app like this forever. maybe you could do what some apps do and offer a free version just with less features or something?? i'd just really love to be able to use this app but i can't.
why does everything have to cost money
God forbid I want to be a morning person for free
PAYING??
I got this app because I had seen it a lot over social media but I had to pay or it didn’t work
I thought my alarm would wake me up this morning but it didn’t and it kept saying I had to pay so I wouldn’t get this app if you don’t want to pay for a subscription

Horrible app, cancelled subscription and still charging me and won’t cancel
Don’t buy horrible app
Scam
Will ask you a bunch of questions and only after set up will ask you to pay. Very disappointing.
Costs money
It should say under the app name if it costs money. Dont waste ur money on this, there are apps that do the same for FREE
Paying?
Why do I have to pay for an alarm clock??? It just doesn’t make sense I don’t have enough money to pay for the stupid subscription every month. I thought I would be able to use it with adds but no you have to pay to continue thanks a lot devs
3 DAY free trail, then they charge you for a year 👍
Looked like the app I have Been looking for… forever!!! But a pay wall for a alarm? I’d rather have to watch an ad or two :/ and be able to use it…

Eh. Weak.
As you can see there’s plenty of fake 5-star reviews evident by their hastily typed usernames like “hdnaiwm” or something like that so here’s the real scoop: there’s plenty of bugs. There’s too many ways to get around it. It turns out that the only way to wake up earlier is to just get more disciplined, because you will find a work around to quick-fixes like this app if you’re sufficiently motivated to just get those five or ten extra minutes.
