FreakyAlarm — Games & Barcodes

I use this alarm to make me get up and take my vitamins and it’s very effective for that! My only complaint is that, since I don’t need to “wake up my brain” it would be great to be able to turn off the math problems. However, having to take a picture of my vitamin bottle to turn off the alarm is so effective, I’ll grudgingly put up with the games.

Love this app. It has helped me get up for work so many times. However, updated to iOS 13 last night. This morning, FreakyAlarm went a little crazy. Alarm went off every 5 seconds or so. Second alarm started alerting while resolving first alarm. Turned all alarms off, no change (badges still showed with prior active alarm numbers). Killed the app, no change. Rebooted phone, no change. After 20 minutes of this, I finally disabled notifications, sounds, and alerts. This has at least stopped the persistent announcements. Not sure if an iOS update would resolve this, or if an app update is needed. Please get this resolved, I need this app. Updated to 13.1 still have the same issues.

Since iOS 11 update this alarm has been unreliable. I have not changed any of my phone or app settings yet sometimes the alarm decides to not sound at all or just vibrate until I unlock my phone. I am wondering if the developers have just given up on the app since it has been 7 months since the last update? Really loved this app and would give it 5 stars hands down, but this new unreliability is making me start to search for a new similar app. Hate to do that, but I am afraid to trust this app anymore. With me working in the education system I kinda have to be there on time no matter what unless I call off in advance.

I emailed the customer support over a week ago. I got no response whatsoever. I emailed today again. Before I purchased the app it wasn’t clear to me that I won’t have a choice to choose from the selection of freakygames. I’ll be honest that I find it ineffective to always be forced to do a math problem. This is boring and not awakening to me. I was hoping I’d be challenged by the many other games and I seem to always get stuck on math problem and I get so turned off that even though I paid for the app I resent using it. How do I omit the math problems and use other challenges to get myself awake and out of bed?

I have been late to work too many times to consider using this anymore. Even though I set it up exactly the same way for every night of the week and most of the time the alarm goes off at the right time, sometimes it goes off a few minutes late or not at all. This is not acceptable in an alarm and I recommend staying away from this one. It's too bad because the features it has are nice and when it works the quiz part of it gets me out of bed but if I can't rely on it then it's time to move on.
