Alarm Clock App: myAlarm Clock

I downloaded this hoping I could set an alarm that would play a radio station, but ended up uninstalling the app after finding something that works much better for this purpose. This app is like other similar apps, you have to leave the app open (and your phone unlocked) all night for it to actually do what it says it does. I like that you can record your own media to use as an alarm, but when I saw that their selection of stations was subpar as well, I kept looking.

Update: Uninstalled. It just stopped working. Everything is was set up for it to go off and it didn’t. There are a ton of glitches as well, like it will say the next time it’s set to go off is Thursday, but it’s programmed for Tuesday. Really crappy app. I downloaded this because I have a hard time finding an alarm with a customizable snooze. I keep my phone on silent at night (the time when most people on the planet would want it to be on silent) and in the first night using this app it worked fine. It was great. Last night, the second night using it, the alarm decided it didn’t want to work with the phone on silent. I overslept by 1 1/2 hours. Thanks. Full disclosure, a notification does pop up to say to turn off silent mode, but in the app itself the message just says to keep the app open for it to work. All the other alarms I’ve downloaded (almost all off them) work while the phone is silent so I do t understand this issue. It’s a real bummer.

I love the voice recorder feature because I could not get my 12 yr old son to wake up for any alarm sounds no matter how loud but he does wake up to the sound of his mother’s voice! This was a lifesaver for us! The only problem is that the date on his app is consistently one day off and therefore if the alarm is set for Monday morning but the clock will say it is Sunday and therefore not go off. I can’t find any way to change or correct the date. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but still no luck.

I love being able to record my own message as an alarm. But the downfall is the volume playback is sooo low for that type of sound I slept through it. Also wish I didn’t have to keep the app open for it to work. But my biggest gripe is that it you have to keep it on and it gives off light. I wish it would go completely black and also the absolute worst part is that while it’s open there is this weird ticking noise that plays low the whole time the app is open. It’s really annoying to fall asleep to it. I’m sensitive to noises and light.

UPDATE: This app has not lived up to my expectations. The dates on the alarms are off a day or two. I bought the premium version because I wanted to be able to set an alarm to ring for a certain number of seconds and then stop. Even though I set the alarm not to snooze or repeat, it continues to go off. I am uninstalling this app and eating the premium update cost. The app concept is good, but the design has a lot to be desired. Don’t waste your money on this app. Original rating: I really like the App, it has all the features I was looking for. The problem I have with it is I can't get the weather right and from what I see, there is no support for the App, even though I bought the premium version.
