If you have any feedback or issues in the app (or would like a radio station added) make sure to e-mail us at mark@riseupradioalarm.com.

NOTE: The built-in alarm app on certain Android devices clashes with the notification icon, leading the icon to be unreliable on those devices. Any alarms that are set will still go off. In addition the automation airplane mode is no longer available as of Android 4.2. due to changes by Google.

Over 2 years since this lazy money grabber has done anything with this crap, app, I wrote feedback 2 times over a period of 1 year and still had done nothing with weather part. Don't buy it, apart from weather never working and radio iffy it's almost last in its class. I bought it and was ripped off.

I like this alarm verses the others. It works great and is easy to use.

Please can you put an option to play a list of songs when the music option is selected??? Repeating only one song is disgusting... After this i will buy the app again!!! I promise. Also put a keyboard-input option, sliding the controls is tedious... After adding what i told you, this will be the best alarm clock in the market!!!

T70%
by T####:

This app is good, it does everything that is in the description. But it has one very important flaw, there is no way to control the volume. No matter what you so it plays at full blast. I've been through every setting and adjustment and I can find no fix. There is a "play at full volume" check box but this has no effect on or off.

Q70%
by Q####:

Great app, but would be good if it was able to display more detail about the radio station being listened to, such as artist playing and song title. Other than that would have given 5 stars.

Q70%
by Q####:

No better than any other alarm app. I installed this on the understanding it would play a radio station as my alarm rather than a beep, but it can simply never connect to a radio stream, so just defaults to a beep. My default alarm is just as good, rendering this a waste of my money.

Q70%
by Q####:

I bought it, based on the UI mainly, and have never been disappointed. There are a few live music channels that don't work on all devices, but there's plenty that does work, and it's never failed to wake me beautifully. Thoroughly recommend Rise Up, it's the best thing I've ever paid pocket-change for

Could be prettier. Could have a better interface. But I love this app. Best alarm clock I have ever owned. Radio stations are a bonus.

Work's good. Wish it could tune into my local NPR radio station. WSKG (hint, hint) developer if you happen to see this. :)

by Q####:

This is a good concept, could do with more modern clock faces, get out of the stone age. Since sometime last year it lost the ability to get the weather, just says weather can't be found. Pretty sure there is weather every where so where is this app looking? This app has lost all of its appeal. Do something quick, after all I did pay for it...

Unbelievably good

R70%
by R####:

Ok, the UI is pretty good, and the alarm sounds are cool, but there are lots and lots of broken radio streams, and there seems to be no way of using a custom directory service like xiph. No option to keep the device awake while playing a stream, which is necessary on some crappy devices like my LG. Sounds always play on the built-in speaker, which is annoying if you're using an external speaker or dock.

R70%
by R####:

Two days running, didn't go off awoke (late!) to find the visual alarm but no sound. A range of stations don't actually work either.

R70%
by R####:

At first I loved this app to turn my Nexus 7 into an awesome clock radio, docked on my night table next to my bed. It worked pretty well other than the clumsy process of adding radio stations to the home screen/favorites. But then suddenly I was unable to add my own music as the alarm sound. Then after the last Android update, all internet radio stations are unable to connect. Every single one I tried fails. Now it's pretty much nothing more than a clock with a weather report. If it gets fixed, I'll reinstall and change my rating, because I did really like it for the most part.

R70%
by R####:

I was looking for an app which could wake me up in the morning with the sound of radio. This app does that nicely, despite I had to find the url adress for my danish radio station even though is the biggest in my country. Plus the design is a bit out dated, however it is functional.

Z70%
by Z####:

But doesn't follow through. This is more like any other radio app. Do not rely on it for your alarm. Fade in starts blasted at high volume then goes to low. If you use the reaction disable and fail the music is replaced by a tone alarm. WORST OF ALL: went to bed at 9pm with 100% and woke up at 530am and battery is dead. Android shows 70% used by this app. Do not buy. I wish I could get my money back.

A70%
by A####:

Even though I have it set up to wake to a radio station, it fails to connect. Please fix it, as otherwise it's a great app.

R70%
by R####:

Numbers don't display properly for Note 4. Has difficulty streaming, not dependable. Also, running just the radio to check the streaming is difficult. Just uninstalled the paid version.

NPR and many other radio stations i normally wake up to no longer works after lollipop updates on all of my devices

Since yesterday none of the radio streams are working. I'm not happy.

N70%
by N####:

Clock faces aren't very appealing as they're mostly grey and there is no option to customise. No icon appears in the notification area to show the alarm is set, even though that option is ticked. When snoozing alarm there is no indication of how long snooze time is left or no clear way to dismiss alarm from snooze. The settings menu is old and outdated and it's a chore to set volume limits and clock faces. Wouldn't recommend.

L70%
by L####:

This app is well designed with a solid set of features. I was able to ditch my traditional radio alarm clock and use my tablet with RiseUp exclusively. Best feature is the Gradually increasing volume for the radio and a fallback to the internal alarm tones in case the internet radio is not available. The only improvement I would suggest is a BLACKER background on the DEFAULT clock face instead of the GRAY background. (make it like the LED background) Great work - and thanks

N70%
by N####:

The weather won't work for me and I would like to alter the colour of the digits but otherwise outstanding.

N70%
by N####:

I'd like to have the full screen clock view as a daydream (screen saver) at night. I like the greys, but the design could use some modernizing and higher contrasts, lose the faux radio look. Make the clock digits brighter (more customizable, resizeable, support system fonts), black background.

N70%
by N####:

Gives lots of options to listen/wake up to. Even has a function to make it harder to turn it off!

Crashes on snooze. Galaxy S5

N70%
by N####:

Would be 4.5 stars but force volume to 100% doesn't work for me meaning it's not woke me up 3 days running. Also it's a bit ugly. Why can't someone create an alarm with good functionality but that also looks sleek and simple.

N70%
by N####:

This is a great app, but why not update it more often? The theme selection is very limited, it would be great if weather animations go as clock background option, also when the software decoder is off, there seems to be no way of controlling alarm volume, always goes to the max, and when it's on - the fade in radio alarm option starts with high volume for 1s and only then goes low and starts to fade in. Please look into this. It happened on Galaxy S3.

N70%
by N####:

Personally, I love this app. It wakes me up in the morning with my favorite song or radio station. It also gave me helpful hints about things like drinking a cup of coffee before a nap. It really is an all-in-one app. Good job devs!

N70%
by N####:

It has a good selection of streams, and it's a great way to wake up.

Best Clock Radio app available via Google Play. Wake up to radio or sounds, fall asleep to radio or white noise. Easy to understand interface with a wide selection of Internet radio stations to choose from. 5 stars *****
