Smarter Alarm for Android
have 500+ paid and free apps on my Galaxy Epic 4 G Touch... my top 10 paid apps 4 sure! Possibly top 5 of all the apps I use on a daily basis. The free app works great but there are a # of extra selections you get with paid app. After 1-2 days I as hooked! TRY IT FOR YOURSELF! I have it go off during the middle of the day just to get an update of sports scores, news & stock updates!
I've been using this app for over a year and it my favorite. There's just something about a British Lady's accent first thing in the morning. This is a great alarm app. Waking up to the voice of an English lady is fantastic. Can you add Rosie Perez or similar?
I was optimistic about this and enjoy the nice intro before the day starter. But really I wanted the weather and the other stuff (news, bdays, etc) were just nice gravy. But even with everything set and weather first priority, I getbonly world news. Would love help. I like the idea and was excitef enough to share before trying. But this is disappointing.
I enjoyed the free version so I updated to the paid and it doesn't go off even though I have it set to repeat everyday. stopped using after it made me late. I no longer trust this alarm clock and what good is an alarm you don't trust?
I would like to see the pre-alarm repeat itself until the pre-alarm time is complete. Otherwise if I have a sound bit that is shorter than the amount of time designated for the pre- alarm there is a gap of silence. it would also be cool to have different profiles that I could set for various alarms then I could have it read different information throughout the day.
Does not always go off qhen scheduled so you have to set a 2nd alarm as backup. So thats a headache. Does read time & forecast, but not calandar. Also it doesn't integrate with my calandar and pipe up to tell me its time for a scheduled appointment. Also doesn't read my emails like I authorized it to... not living up to the hype of a $4 app.
I really haven't noticed any difference from this one to a free one. It would be one heck of an advantage if this one read you your local weather forecast for the day. And maybe it does I just haven't had time to play with it I guess.. if it has audible weather for cast with the alarm, I could recommend this app.... still 5 stars though..bzzzzz
I HAVE BEEN USING THIS SMART CLOCK FOR QUITE SOME TIME, AND GIVING A 5 STAR WAS A NO BRAINER. I HAVE AN OLD SNL SOUND CLIP THAT I USE FOR PRE ALARM, THEN TREAT MYSELF TO SARAH BRIGHTMAN TO BRING THE COBWEBS OUT. I ALSO HV 4 HITS OF WORLD NEWS,FOLLOWED BY WEATHER TO FINALIZE MY PREPS FOR THE DAY. GET THE APP.YOU WON't be disappointed.
I have been using this app for 3 years. l use it fot reminders during the day and morning alarm it has never let me down shown it to friends who have no complaints after downloading it. Congratulations and thanks to the developer.
Love this app. I jist switched to the Galaxy S8 and as soon as I hit the dismiss button it starts talking over and over again until I exit the app. Please look into this because it never did that with all my previous phones. Thanks!
If you're looking for an alarm clock that speaks your daily agenda and current events, this is the best one I've found. Great if you need more than a tune or tone to get you out of bed in the morning.
The best app I use it all the time keep up the good work .this apps been working for great for me for years now. (Need some fixing it dose not always work right on my note 2)
I use this app on my phone and love it. I'm loving the customizable comments. I have fun leaving a new message for my wife each morning! However, it doesn't work for the new Google Nexus 7. If the Nexus 7 is in sleep mode this app doesn't turn the sound on.
Incredible app. It's what I've been dreaming of for a long time now. Unfortunately the weather component doesn't seem to work on my s4. Not sure why
I had this years ago on my tablets and LOVED it! Finally remembered to look for it for my Note 3. The darn pre alarm sounds will not work! Then the alarm itself works only part time (even turning off the darn pre alarm sound that I really prefer to have). This used to be an awesome app......
Worked great initially, but after update well not wake my phone. Results - app currently useless. Would like a refund, or repair!
More time than not it doesn't go off and many of the feeds don't work at all, like birthdays and local news and weather.
Alarm worked wonderful for a week or two. Gave it 5 stars and upgraded to full version. Now the first alarm of the day has failed to play audio. Alarm appears trigger but no sound. Works fine when manually triggered. Running on a galaxy s4. Would return to 5 star rating if reliability issues are fixed.
Developer no longer communicates with anybody. Was a perfect app, amazing app even. now no weather. I had this running nicely and suddenly it stopped giving weather. For me that was the most important morning info. Please developer fix it and the five stars return! It was SOOOOO nice when it worked. You don't even answer emails anymore! Not sure this has improved. I'll watch it and upgrade if it is better.
If you've abandoned this app please let people know. The last update was 3 years ago yet it still remains in the Play Store for $3.99. This app needs to be removed from Google Play or updated with new APIs. When it worked it WAS great
I would like to be able to remove the very first thing the alarm says (Good Day) because that can be replaced by the quote. Also I like to be able to play any of my music as a background while the alarm is telling me weather, time etc.. That would make it perfect! :)
I had this app a couple years ago and absolutely loved it. Now none of the features that I want (birthdays, calendar, weather) work at all. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times over the last few months with no improvement. Very sad, it used to be a great app.
Love the app for a long time but just still to many glitches...(weather and sports)
This is a great app being able to read the news in the morning as well, but all of a sudden the news does not update just stuck on the same day every day now feels like ground hog day.!! Please fix if you can. Update Many Thanks now working 100% back to being a great app... 100% Happy :-) on S4 mobile
I used to love this app but can't use it anymore. Since I got lollipop on my Nexus 5,the home button and apps list disappear when the alarm goes on and I have to reboot or my phone becomes useless.
It started not going off randomly after two weeks. Now it barely goes off at all. Don't waste your money if you have an important need to wake up most days. What a sham. Pro... pfft. Ps I have a Samsung S5
Weather does not work. Says it's unavailable, but it's all there when I tap the weather section. Also no way to adjust the volume of the alarm. It's way too loud. I expected more from the paid app!
It's the most useful alarm available, given how it provides the time, date, news and reads your calendar events. If only it did everything it claims to do. Otherwise this would be the best alarm ever. Unfortunately, even the stuff that kinda works is not done well enough. Weather is always unavailable, whether I pick GPS location or enter ZIP code, and it won't read Gmail items. At least it gives me the news, and calendar events seem to get picked up. Hopefully in the future the dev can get it working right, and maybe even add traffic reports.
I love this alarm. The talking voice is clear. I love all of the items you can choose from to talk to you about, such as the news and this day in history. That helps wake my mind. The only thing is the pre-alarm function does not work for some reason.. it does not play the music I selected. Otherwise, best talking alarm app so far as I have pretty much tried them all!
Everything seems to work except for the Google calendar. Allowed permission but still only reads tasks. 5 stars if fixed. G S5 Active
The parts of the app that work are great but it and it's developer has their issues. Most importantly, the calendar and weather features of the app do not work. I'm sure I have them configured correctly but thry are never included in the audio readout. I've emailed the developer about this and have yet to receive a response. It's a shame because the calendar feature is one of the reasons to buy the app instead of just using the free version. For this reason, I can't recommend this app.
Just started using this app and it works quite well. Had to pay a little more for a female British robotic voice...
I like this app alot. Please allow connection to hotmail not just gmail. Can you put option to repeat custom message at the end of the alarm again. Thanks
For now 4 stars... I just downloaded it. We'll see in the morning how it realy works.
This app used to have sports scores which is why I bought the pro version. Now that's gone. Pretty disappointed even though it's not his fault. Hopefully he'll find another provider.
It would be great if one could specify a pause between each item, it's difficult to know when an item has finished and a new begun. Also some news feed items are repeated, perhaps you could remember items and skip duplicates.
Will not give weather forecast like its supposed to.
The only thing I wished it had a different saying wit h each alarm that I set up and yhat the voices can be clearer other than that its a good app
Would have given it five stars but it won't give the weather anymore
by B####:
But otherwise it works pretty good. Color for visual speech an time color not changing from standard on note 4. Other than that it plays a great personal message an news. With I could also use Samsung U.S. speech to text engine tho. But UK is okay for now. When things are addressed more stars to be added..☆☆☆
