ok, i am really hard at waking up.. when i was on CM the rooster sound actually woke me up... probably because it scared me.. however, im on fresh now and do not have that sound so need something else
anyway.. I am looking for an alarm clock pay or free that works well.. i am thinking that the ability to play my own mp3s would be best..
any suggestions?
thanks

If you download Zedge you can choose from a ton of ringtones and use the stock Alarm Clock on Fresh
I'm running Fresh with the Vanilla lockscreen so I had to search for another alarm app. I downloaded Alarm Klock and have been loving it. Found a nice/loud/annoying tone to wake me up each morning. Works better than my real alarm clock. HTH
I use Alarm Master. Got it from some torrent. It works pretty well. You can basically set anything you could ever possibly want. Since I have to wake up at a different time every other day its nice to have options. U can easily select your own MP3s for any day/alarm u set. I think they give u a free trial on the market..
will try Alarm Klock tonight.. see how that goes..
thanks for all the choices.. will try each of them
i use alarm clock plus. works nicely with fresh/vanilla lock screen
ok, i really like alarm klock..
got up after hitting snooze 3 times but it was nice.. i just gotta get my ass out of bed.. lol
thanks again
Hi
I searched but didn't find.
It's gone be perfect if have widget!
Smarter Alarm might fit what you need. it's an alarm that goes off stating the time and other information as per your preference instead of a ring (weather/news etc.) There's always a "hear alarm" button so if you just want to hear the time, that would work too.

it's an alarm speak.
Thanks btw. I wish to find something like tell the time every hour.
Its just to set up an alarm every hour you are supposed to be awake, or set it to not go off if the phone is silent, not much work.
Tasker can do what you want. Its not the easiest app to get used to, but it's so powerful and has near limitless potential.
You can download and import the talking clock profile someone has made from here...

The default countdown timer on the phone has the most annoying sound when the countdown has completed. I have attempted to find the file assuming it was a simple mp3 or other sound file but I'm guessing it is not.
Has anyone had any luck finding this file and changing it? If so, can you list the path name?
If it isn't a simple file, does any one know how to change the notification?
Just to clarify, this isn't the Alarm function on the phone nor the stopwatch. This is the countdown timer (represented as an hourglass within the app). I use this quite a bit when cooking and could really use a way to change the notification sound.

My suggestion would be to use a 3rd party app as the built-in one will require root to modify that notification sound.

I've actually already rooted the phone as I assumed finding the file was just a matter of looking in the correct place.
If that is your suggestion, what app would you suggest? The 1 thing I need is to have a clock and date widget on my homepage. When I click the clock widget, I need it to go to my alarms, stopwatch, timer, etc. When I click the date widget, I need it to go to my calendar.
I have a widget (Retro Clock/Date) that does just that but I can't tell the widget to open up a different app when I click on it.
Beautiful WIdgets does exactly what you described, plus it is beautiful Not sure if all the features are in the free version though as I have paid.
Would also like to know this.

My guess would be that the audio sound you are wanting to change is in the APK of the clock app. To change you would have to decompile, find and change the audio file, recompile and then install on your phone. Should be in the system/app directory.
I would recommend Timely. It's a beautiful alarm clock app with a timer and stopwatch, plus a widget just as you described.

★ When you set the alarm Turbo Alarm shows the weather forecast for the time when the alarm rings.
★ Mini game to stop alarm definitely.
★ Tasker integration.
★ Google Now integration.
★ Sleepbot integration (basic integration).
★ Security Alarm which rings again if you still are at home.
★ ¿Do you want to wake up little by little? Then, select incremental volume and the time to reach the maximum.
★ Select the way the device vibrate when the alarm rings: relaxed, normal, rapidly or none.
★ You can choose the way to finish or snooze the alarm: switching the room light on, shaking the device, drawing a square or triangle, sliding a bar, long press, short press or just a big or a small button.
★ Simulate the sunrise in your bedroom with your favorite color.
★ Decremental snooze interval.
★ Widget with list of active alarms.
★ Dashclock extension (4.2+).
★ You can limit max snooze times.
★ Night clock with auto mute notifications.
★ Skip any day of the week (with a long press on the day). You will never forget to reactivate the alarm again.
★ Security alarm which rings again if you do not leave home in time.
★ Give a name to the alarms to remind you some events.
★ Anti-sleepyhead mode to wake you up even those days you are really tired.
★ Customizable background image.
You can contact me by email if you want to ask for new features or anything.
I am looking forward to hearing from your comments,
Fran.
No one is interested?
i tried it
first, fantastic work on this app. it's clean, it's RICH in features and options. it really can cater to all kinds of sleepy heads !
if I could formulate one criticism: the font used for the clock itself, showing the time and the countdown is very different from the app's alarm font itself, and doesn't look very "alarm clock"-ish. I think it would probably benefit from being a little different, more in the clock styles. (Or given the many options you have, maybe allow for selection of the fonts for the clock!)

Thanks for your opinion, I am working on the fonts right now because some users think like you [emoji6]
Fantastic so far. Well done. My favorite is the mini game and the material design.
Looks nice.
I looked through the options menu, and I cannot seem to find a way to disable the alarm clock icon in the status bar. Did I miss something? All of the other alarm apps I have tried have this. I always have alarms set, so I don't need it taking up room on my status bar telling me that I have it on 24/7.

Hi,
This preference is at the bottom of the settings. It is called "active notification". There is three options and you can select none to remove completely. The one hour before notification is very useful to skip the alarm if you are already awake [emoji6]
Thanks,
Fran.
I set it to none last night, have an alarm set for 8:00, and the notification just reappeared at 7:00.

In my S5 works well. Could you try with the "Always when an alarm is active" option? Then check if a active notification is shown always.
Then set to "None" again and add an alarm for one hour and a minute from now and check again if the notification appears after a minute. If it does, it doesn't work in your phone.
Please, let me know what's your phone if you don't mind.
Thanks a lot!!
Fran.
Thank your for this great alarm app!
I really like your app because of its rich customization.
I especially like your "simulated sunrise" feature, because I am that type of person that gets up with light or brightness rather than sounds.
Would it be possible to add a pre-alarm "simulated sunrise", e.g. 30 mins before the alarm rings the display brightness slowly increases?
I charge my phone during the night, so battery consumption is not an issue for me.
I would really appreciate such a feature as it's pretty unique in the alarm app market.

Thanks @DeVisible. The pre-alarm is something I have had in mind since almost the beginning, but it is something I have to do it as well as possible and because of this I've never seen the moment to start implementing this feature. However I will try to do it for the next version

I will try that later today.
I had a hard time shutting my alarm off this morning. I had it set to draw a triangle, and I had to draw a triangle 3 times to get it to go off. My wife was watching me do it too, and confirmed that I was drawing triangles. I will let you know if I have the same issue tomorrow.

It is true, I need to make it easy to solved. Thanks for your comments.
Is there any way to make it so that I can name the alarms so that when they go off I know why they are going off?
I have been using Alarmdroid for years, but their newest update broke some things for me and I would love to switch to a new one. To get this app to be my daily alarm app, I need a way to name alarms, as I usually have 5-10 alarms always set for different things.

I tried to do this, I set an alarm for 2:42pm at 1:41pm, and I had it set to always show active. I then set it to none, and it stays there.
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 4 using 4.4.4 (my model number is in my signature as well if you need that).

Thanks!!!

Great application and free with no ads.
Perhaps Android back compatibility could be lower. Do you plan this in the future?

Thanks @doublekeys At the moment I have no plan to support older Android versions because it would be more limited ones. But maybe I will do it if more users are interested in this [emoji4]

Hi, on my old Galaxy S7 the clock alarm had the option to set a date so I could set alarms for more than a week ahead, I used this a lot for eBay listings. Now I really miss that feature. Does anyone know if there is a port of this clock available or one with the same feature?
Why don't you just use the calendar for this?

I could, but I found the alarm clock a lot easier to use, opening it up and having my list of alarms on one page was ideal for my eBay watching.
