Alarm Clock Pro App Reviews

Now that I have to have the volume on for this app to work it’s a complete waste of time. As a matter of fact, since the alarm doesn’t work with the phone on silent, I just use all the other sounds my phone makes to wake up now. They wake me up all night long. Are you serious with this update???

This is second and last chance. Don’t even bother!

Some features I’ve loved on this app (and I’ve had it for years): changing the clock colors to something more soothing in the dark; sleep timer for music; alarm awake by Apple Music. New-ish problem makes this app useless - alarm sometimes doesn’t go off. Even this morning, I overslept because it didn’t go off. Looked at my settings and they were as I’d set them and still with the green slider switch on. No reason there why it didn’t go off. And it’s random. Changed the same alarm for two minutes from now, turned off the screen and it worked fine. I’m not finding it’s user error, so..... Can you also make it work with my Amazon music? I have so much more to choose from there.

I agree with some other reviewers here: since the update, the display is much smaller. There’s also something different with the light display. The apps still works well for me, but I’m not happy with the visual.

I bought the Alarm Clock Pro and after the latest update app will not load. I can download newer version with ads or pay for Pro to eliminate. Update kicked all older customers out and tried to get them to pay again for the new Pro version.

I no sooner had I finished writing a Review that I wasn’t getting any Updates, I opened the app one last time, to find the app was in the process of Updating after a long time!!!! Thank You iHandy for an Instant Response and Fix to my problem! I really Love this app! Thank You!!

I love this app. My husband even downloaded to his phone cuz he likes it too. Update 2018-04-28 Won’t load when open the app.

I have used this app for years as my daily alarm clock and it works great. I love that the brightness can be adjusted with a swipe. My only complaint is that now that I have upgraded my iPhone to the iPhone XS, there is a bright white s**** of light on the edge of the screen that can’t be dimmed. My review would be 5 stars if this is fixed!

Can’t beat it for the money

I used this app for 10 years and just yesterday it quit working. I was late to work yesterday and today it didn’t go off again.

I have been unable to listen to my music with this app for a while now. I was hoping that this latest update would address and fix this issue, but it did not. I have had no issues with the alarm, but i would like to be able to listen to music while I am trying to h* to sleep. I am using this on my iPhone X.

I love this app and it gets me up reliably every morning! I was watching the update history and was afraid it was a dead app. So glad you’re back and making updates! Thanks! Psst, do you need a developer to help with maintenance? Let me know.

I would give this app 5 stars if it would fix my problem. When I’m in landscape mode and I get a notification, text message, or phone call, the app automatically goes to portrait mode. It won’t return to landscape mode until I manually do it. That needs to be fixed. It should stay in whatever mode you had it in to begin with.

Horrible app! Not user friendly and did not even work. Very deceiving & disappointing.

Good app, used it a while back. Now it Has weird white line on the right side when turned over. Very distracting!

I used to absolutely love this app, used it everyday for many years. Now the sound doesn't work, sometimes if it does its very very low. Volume adjust doesn't effect it. I can no longer use it. Please fix!!

Every time I switch to another app it stops my music from playing. I have to restart it.

Works well

Review 4/25/18: Pro: when it works, it is great. I used on iPhone & Android. Con: 1 Does not alarm if I sleep with iWatch on. (I attend too many meetings to allow noise on iWatch.). Yet there is no iWatch app mentioned or seen. 2 The stop & snooze buttons show randomly. Very aggravating. 3 The link for app support in the App Store does not work. 4 All reviews are old.

It looks like you are now using a smaller font for the time display. Either bring back the big numbers, please, or give us the option to resize via gesture.

Didn't want to buy an old alarm clock so I just used an old iphone with this app instead

Unreliable junk All nick names taken so you can’t send

Terrible app. Ads even on premium. Deleted app on day 1 and want refund.

I love this alarm it allows me to change the wake up sound play music to go to sleep and of course shake to make it snooze.However I ran into a recent issue if someone calls you and you get a miss call on your iPhone 8 Plus then your alarm will not go off even if you still have the app running like you are supposed to if they can fix this glitch it would be greatly appreciated I hate being late because I slept in

With this app I can use my phone as my digital see-in-dark clock. No ads no muss no fuss. I was just in the process of buying a separate bedside clock when I thought that for a few bucks my phone plus an app could do that. I specify in the settings to leave the display on while the phone is charging. Having a display let’s me know whether I can go back to sleep or if I should just get up. I rest easier that way. I recommend this app

App no longer boots.

I just updated this app and wish I hadn’t. The actual clock size has shrunk on the XS Max and the snooze bar has shrunk along with it making it harder to press. Please fix!!

I’ve been using this alarm clock app for over a year and have never had an issue. I love that I am able to set multiple alarms.

Just wish it would stay on screen permantly.

Whatever you did with the update today, now the app won’t open.

Previously the clock took up the full space on my 6+’s display. The recent update shrank it. I guess maybe it looks crisper now, but as someone nearsighted, this is kind of useless now without my glasses (IE, when I glance at it in the night.) Very disappointed. I wish I could roll back to the earlier version.

I Love To Wakeup With Alarm Clock!!! Love Mary Beth Melia

I have used the paid app for many years, but with iOS 12 Snooze alarm is silent. I can see the alarm is going off, but it’s silent. 2 years since last update, so I suppose it’s a dead app.

I've tested it a few times and relied on it to wake me up a few times but sometimes it just sends a silent notification to my phone instead of playing music. Please fix this and I would love this app!

I have used it for years and it’s been wonderful!

I think this is good I really don’t know. But they keep asking for f*^*^*ing review.

I've been using this app for years and it has never let me down. Highly recommended!

I can only give this a 4 out of 7 stars rating. Reason: even though I have set the alarm to go off every day it fails to do so. I now set it every morning to 17:00 hours to get it to function for my needs.

Used this for years on my iPhone and iPad. Updated iPad to iOS 12 and lost icon for the app. Just left with the generic pattern icon

Not happy with last update and wish I could revert back. Please fix screen size.

I have used this app for years and have enjoyed all of the features. Now, to the “needs improvement” comment - the need for larger fonts. I was near-sighted all of my life, which let me see the weather and alarm times without my glasses. I have had cataract surgery with lens implants and now require reading glasses to use my iPhone. That’s a bit inconvenient when I roll over to check the time that I set my alarm for, or what the temperature as I am shutting off the alarm. Please don’t change any of the other features! I really appreciate the finger-slide on the screen to adjust the brightness, and the ability to create a “library” of alarm times with customized alert sounds. Please, just make the tiny fonts larger!

On the iPhone X, the scroll-up bar is illuminated white which is very annoying. The dim function rocks, as do the customizable alarms. I use it every night. Please fix the scroll up bar or make it the same color as the clock.

The new update remains reliable. My daily alarm for years.

Once upon a time this was a good app, but it’s useless now. Hasn’t been updated in two years, and the website and app support links are dead. Don’t waste your time or money.

Can’t get music to play for the alarm sound.

I’ve used this app several months now and found it easy to use, lots of options to add to the clock face, numeral colors can be changed and alarm is very reliable. Looking for a good alarm clock app, I recommend this one highly.

Nice And best ever.

I’m having a problem with the alarm with no sound on occasions also it shows the alarm activated but nothing. There is another issue also where I have my down loaded music set up for random play but it’s like the movie Groundhog Day the same sone everyday.

I have had this app on many different phones and iPads. Suddenly it will not open. I suspect it has to do with an iOS update The alarms that were set prior to the app not opening go off, but I cannot open it to turn them off. Tried getting some support but the link is broken. Please fix the problem. I need the app. I have tried others but they are not as good.

There were no app updates for two years. I’m deleting it because 1) it doesn’t work and 2) I think the developers abandoned it thus it’s not going to be fixed. App versions are normally updated to keep up with iOS updates.

I’m having similar problems, randomly no sound when the alarm goes off, & now the weather feature keeps saying update failed, & just now it’s not displaying the upcoming alarms, I don’t know what they did, I’ve never had this problem in the past. I hope they fix it, in the meantime I’m gonna have to use something else.

I have used this for years and loved it. Lately I have noticed when I wake in the morning, the weather has not updated from when I set it for bed. Apparently not staying updated on weather while I sleep.

I have had this app, used and appreciated its features for several years. Recently the weather fails to update. I don’t know if this is due to the frequent iOS updates and ihandy isn’t able to keep up with them, however it’s something I have grown accustom to and would appreciate a return to full functionality of this previously 5 star app.

I quit using this app because I can not see what time it is during the night without picking up my phone, putting my glasses on, and then having to X out of the ads. I thought by buying the paid version, this would go away. This happens every time I look at the clock during the night. Very annoying.

Need to be able to play Spotify music Please fix

I can’t set anything in the 2 am hour!!!!! Also tried other times and it won’t let me choose AM or PM. This is a show stopper bug!

Had this app for years and occasionally will get the “white” screen but for most part alarm works well. Biggest complaint is weather portion no longer works, keeps saying Update Failed.

I’ve had this for years and within the past few months the alarm has completely failed. - phone has not been on silent - alarm app has been in the foreground of any of the other apps open - volume setting way up on phone and alarm setting within the app Used to be absolutely reliable. Something has happened and needs to be addressed.

Behaves inconsistently, needs update

The AppStore’s pictures look good but on an iPad it looks bad.

Used to work great , I have used this app as my only alarm clock now I guess I will have to fine another source and delete this. You set your alarm and volume at max and when the alarm goes off volume is at 50% or less. Multiple times it has me not walking up because I can’t hear it!

Had this app for the longest time now and just recently it has started to act up. Location services are off and it will cut off my sleep music from time to time. Companies are always worried about the next best thing in phones apps so that they work with the newer phones but forget about the older phones completely.

The stupid white bar stays on. Very simple fix to hide it. Every other app hides it.

At last, an alarm that not only lets me wake up to music but lets me use a playlist, and plays that playlist in the order I set up. Lots of alarms let you wake up to music but it is just ONE song, and then it repeats. Pandora allows you to wake up to a station of your choice but not the songs of your choice. This one is great. (In the event of failure—which has not happened so far— I keep my native iPhone alarm set to about 15-20 minutes later than the playlist.) So far so good. 5 stars at this point.

I decided to buy the pro version of this because of the features -one being able to have a playlist or song of your choice for the alarm and the ability to use it as a countdown sleep timer where it would ideally gradually fade away. But this is not the case. The sleep timer does not seem to gradually fade to zero but rather fades a little bit and then abruptly cuts off. And that is with it set at at least 10 minutes. But the REAL kicker is it is it a completely UNRELIABLE alarm clock which is the whole point of this app. So far over four days and three different alarms it has only gone off one of those days. Thank God I only paid $.99 for this although it’s not even worth that. Guess i will just have to go back to using the iPhone’s built in alarm clock. At least it ALWAYS works.

This used to be a great app. Then one day the snooze stopped working regularly! I NEED a working snooze! The indicator shows the alarm is active but no sound comes out. Maybe they broke it purposely so you download their other app with no features and ads! Ew.

First of all you cant control the size of the numbers. There’s so much space on my screen. Why can’t I make the numbers bigger? Second, why does the screen go blank? Like white for no reason. I paid for pro. No support? Will ask Apple for refund.

This is a great app, but on an iPhone X, XS, the home indicator is a SPOTLIGHT at night. Give us an option to turn this off and it’s a 5 star app - hands down!

I used to love this alarm clock - had it for years. Then I upgraded to iPhone X and that annoying bright white home bar does not dim when I dim the clock. So no matter how dim I make the clock the home bar is a virtual mini spotlight that never goes away.

I like this app but it will not show weather or city updates anymore and always says that the update has failed. What’s going on with the app now. I have contacted support several times and they still haven’t even given me an answer to what is causing the problem. I never had any issues before until the last update came out. If you pay for an app you surely would think you would get support after sending several emails. I recon if I don’t hear anything back from iHandy support I will delete all the apps that I paid for from iHandy. Come on guys anyone would expect at least an answer from support or an update from iHandy. I’m using iPhone 8 with the latest updated IOS version 12.1.4.

No longer gives the temperature and apparently there is no bug fix for my iPhone.
