I am glad that you folks are really patient. I have used the Apple clock for 30+ years, and it was a really easy setup. I did not renew my Apple membership due to a really tight budget. Every dollar counts. I like finding ways to resolve simple issues, when possible. So, I downloaded the app Alarm Clock for Me- Wake up … I didn’t know there were 3 different kinds of the same Alarm- The first has 175.8 mb, the second 155.7 mb, and the third has 144. I downloaded the last one. For some reason it appeared to work better than the other, though I don’t know what the actual difference was in functionality, except for the larger size. I am able to play a lot of the Apple music songs and music I have had for years since I had transferred them from CDs a long time ago to my Apple play list. I have set notifications on Locked Screen and no banners, no sounds… the message reminded me that if I wanted to HEAR THE ALARM, they would have to be on. And so they now are. Lastly, there were three things that were "different" on your app compared to the Apple Clock: 1) making sure the same alarm for most days was checked- didn’t have to do do that on Apple- set the alarm once, and then when I wanted that time to ring, I would just toggle the switch to the right, and presto, instead of having to make a new alarm and set the days I wanted it to ring. If I wanted to change the time slightly for earlier or later, that was simple or not have it on “on” and sleep in. 2) I could close all apps, including the Apple clock, and still have it go on in the am. This app requires me to keep “sounds and banners" open in order to hear the alarm… and still continues to show the message when I don’t. When I lift up the phone the screen will light up and there is the “message”reminder. This is an extra step that could be eliminated and save battery power. 3) The auto-lock on “plugged In” is switched to “Never” which is good, but for the “On Battery”, the minimum is 10 minutes. I hope this helps your team to help others find the right one that works for them, since the IOS that I have on my iPhone is 18.6.2. The colors for the screen are really nice, especially at night time, the clock is very accurate, the options are very good, and clear. So, a thumbs up and a five star with my review to help others see what they might encounter. Thank you.

Tried to trick me into sharing all my user data, and the app cannot be used without signing up for a monthly subscription.

Paid or free, this app is infected with adware garbage that keeps opening Safari to a "virus protection" scamware/trojan/keylogger page. Do not pay for or download this app!

Alarm screen won’t stay on over night. Shuts off and spyware-adware ads pop up on safari. And I paid $20.00!!! Useless when you want to be able to see the clock throughout the night!!!

I used it for years and was very happy and even upgraded to the paid version. Recently, while keeping the app active overnight with the clock display, it suddenly started to open pop-up browsers in Safari that displayed fraudulent websites. The worst part of it is that Safari caused the screen to timeout so the clock would no longer display. I’m finding another option and canceling my subscription.

I’ve been using it for free for years, then just now today it charged me for no reason. Now I have to dispute a credit card charge.

It would never let go of the fact I didn’t want notifications

I didn’t have money to pay for the app usage, this app is so completely wonderful. I used it for free for a few years now I have a monthly subscription. I really love this app and would like to Thank You for taking such good care of me while it was a long time that I didn’t pay I plan on keeping my membership paid every month as long as I can.

For some reason makes a terrible beeping sound and I don’t know how to make it stop

It’s a good alarm clock alternative, but the ads are just insane. Setting alarms, snoozing alarms, canceling snoozed alarms, anything within 5 sec of interacting with the app and an ad pops up that about 1-1.5 min long. Even if you interact with the app after viewing an ad, switch to another app (without closing alarm clock for me), and switch back to this app within like 3 min, you have to watch another ad. The developers are kinda greedy w the ads on here
