SpinMe Alarm Clock for Android
This would be great if it worked! But whatever angle I hold it at and however fast I turn it doesn't recognise spinning properly. So the only way to turn the alarm off is to turn my phone off!
At first, I loved this. It worked perfectly. But the second time I used it, I was spinning like an idiot for 20mins. I wanted to throw my phone just to stop from hearing the annoying sound. I will never use this app ever again.
I got up and did as it told me, but I'm pretty sure I spun around about 30 times. In the end I had to restart my phone to shut it off. Great concept, but as far as I've seen bad execution.
As soon as I opened the app it told me to spin around twice while my thumbs were in the same position but because of the vibrations it's not letting me spin
This app was great but it's recently only been working sometimes. I've been late for work now 3 days in the past two weeks
Can't even open the app, it says hold device flat. It is flat. LG g3. Had this app on my iPhone 5 and loved it. But it won't work with my phone. Please fix, this is the only alarm that wakes me up.
Worked fine the first 2 times. However, the most annoying thing you can experience is a bug that will not fill up the circle. I spinned around for 2 minutes, and I just had to power off my device in order to make it stop. If you're going to have an alarm that won't stop until you spin, at least make sure it works properly.
I dont know yet why it says 23 hrs and 50 mins Until wakeup.... Even though we have set different Alarm time it must say... Time left for alarm.. Instead it says time past the last alarm when you woke up... Rectify that dear developer.. Otherwise its really important app.
But it is missing basic features of an alarm clock....Its been a long time since the last update... Expecting an overhaul....Also no material design and no consistency with updates.
Very innovative. But many more problems great my smartphone.1.you set the alarm some time unlocked key is not work . 2.you set the alarm on is not displayed notification. 3.some time alarm rings 1min only then stop automatically. The app not provide repeated alarm
Pretty good, gets you up but as another user says I can easily fall back go sleep after two spins. Maybe just add a feature where it goes off 5 minutes after I'm sure it going off twice or multiple times will work better because the sound is quite annoying because you can't turn it down haha
Alarm won't go off after marshmallow update. When you wake up the 0hone alarm goes off.
One of the best in this domain. All the features are really Innovative. Great job Guys. I also have a few suggestions. 1. Try to implement the recurring alarm feature. 2. At present wen the alarm is buzzing, the volume buttons stops functioning, hence blocking the user from lowering the volume or mute the device (which is a great and much required feature). But it will be great if you can block the functionality of power button, while the alarm is buzzing.
The reason why some of you are facing the problem with this app is because it works on a sensor called gyroscope sensor and it works only if your phone has one! My request to the developer is, please develop an app that works on an accelerometer sensor which is similar to gyroscope sensor or any other common sensor which most of the basic android phones has. As it's a very useful app for many people! Please consider my suggestion thank you!
Great concept, but it increases the media volume instead of the alarm volume. I use a white noise app to sleep and it suddenly blasts the white noise and starts the alarm. Couldn't get it to turn off too. A little too hard even when you're awake.
Well thats the great one. It would be great if it gives option to choose the sound from device. Sometimes it doesn't work sometimes it does. It's a very good and unique idea but it really needs an update. I guess the developer left the app as it is, the last update seems was in 2014. I really hope to see an good update of this app!
This helps me ALOT getting out of bed in the morning. I have to get down my bunk bed, stay standing, then spin. So in conclusion it is a very helpful app. (Especially on the weekends. Man those are days that are hard to get up on.)
The functionality of the app is great. However the interface is terrible. Its You can't change an alarms time without turning it off. So when you forget to turn it back on you will wake up late. That's just one example of what this app gets wrong.
Doesn't work. For the past week I've set an alarm with SpinMe and it doesn't go off. I always get the notification "SpinMe has stopped working" in the morning. How can you possibly make an alarm app that doesn't properly function as an alarm?
seen good reviews for it but spinning round doesn't do anything for my phone. even if it did i can just close the app and go back to bed..
Doesn't really work... Ever. The alarm doesn't go off normally. Once you set a time every time you attempt to change that time it just goes back to the original time once you turn the alarm on.
This alarm clock perfectly serves the purpose of waking me up for morning (fajr) prayers. I have tried several alarm apps already but none were able to wake me up BUT this one! Today was my first trial and it did a great job!
Am I doing it right, I stand up put my thumbs in the position nothing happens. Help me!
It does the job of waking you up, but it's a little too sensitive. By the time you get it right you've spun like 10 times. I'm keeping it for now cuz it does wake me up
I'm already standing and my thumbs are in right places,but why still not responding? Am i doing wrong??
This app is so bad that it is not allowing me to sleep anymore.
Tottaly recommend this its a yes!!! I mean it amazed me it helps me get up sooo fast
Until your brother comes in wanting to complain about the noise but instead laughing it off cause he saw you spinning around two times and falling asleep again. But still it works. All I need is a plan to get back at my brother...
It doesn't work. It did not go off either yesterday or today and now I overslept. Thanks a lot.
It would be good if user can customize the number of required spins. For me, two spins is too easy and I can easily go back to sleep after switching off the alarm. Also, may be a combination of different body actions such as hopping,rotating etc can help lazy users like me to get out of bed for sure.
It's good for hard sleepies like me. Sometimes no matter how much you rotate it doesn't go beyond 1/10th of a turn
The alarm doesn't work unless you turn on the screen,,,and also when u unlock the screen it rings and can't stop it as after standing up it keeps telling me keep the device flat while it's f**kin flat already,,,, i'm not using any kind of programs that free rams by killing apps ever.
I usually have about 5+ alarms set on my phone and if I could hit snooze 1,000,000 times I would. I was a bit nervous the alarm would either not go off so I also had my other 5 alarms set. 2 of my programed alarms on my phone went off and I shut them both off to snooze more. Then this ALARM FROM HEAVEN WENT OFF. THERE IS NO WAY OF GETTING AROUND IT. YOU CANNOT STOP THE NOICE, FAKE IT NOTHING. IT WOULD BE COOL IF IT WOULD CONTINUE TO GO OFF IF YOU LIE BACK DOWN LOL!
Clever... But there is a bug when i turned off alarm my device's screen goes black.... It solve only to restarting device...
It works the first few times, but after about a week or so, I get up spin round twice and fall back into bad and sleep
Great app but needs some more features 1) Option to enable alarm for weekdays only. 2)Customisation in selection of rotations.
Have to get up & spin twice in any direction with fingers in the specified place. I would like the app to be able to fix & tell us the specific direction in which we have to spin & for it to change the direction randomly. Also I would like to set multiple alarms & repeat them daily or on specified days of the weak.
I first started this app and I read all the instructions. I keep the phone flat and I put my two thumbs where they are supposed to be. But it just keeps buzzing and buzzing...
So glad I'm not late for school in the morning anymore since I got this I have been on time everyday this app is getting me lots of achievements and I also like the fact that it forces you to get out of bed because normally I just turn my alarm off and stay in bed but today I actually got up just to spin around 2 times like a total idiot

At first I gave it two stars because I thought the timer wad set but it actually wasn't and after playing around I got it to work and now it works great. But it only works for me if you stick your elbows out, which is annoying.
