I know what you're
thinking: "Surely the android doesn't need yet
another alarm clock
app.", and normally I'd agree with you; but I
wrote this app. because I
couldn't find a simple non-fussy alarm clock
which worked the way I
wanted it to.
I get up at the same time most weekdays, except
Mondays; but I don't
need an alarm at weekends: Alarum lets me set
each day independently,
and once it's done, it's done. It's one
less thing to have to
remember.
Setting up the alarms is very quick and easy
too, alarms on the hour
are set with two screen touches, no fiddly
scrolling required;
and the paid version is pretty configurable too.
Generally, I set it to wake me up
gently, starting quietly so
that I have a chance to silence it before anyone
else can be disturbed.
There are also "one-off" alarms; which I use all
the time; for
everything from reminding myself to check the
stove, to making myself stop bothering
the computer and go and do something less
sedentary.
And now, the obligatory screenshots.
