Hey all,
I'm working on a feature-packed, sexy new Android premium alarm app which is now nearing completion. I've got a very quick question for anyone who's ever looked for a replacement app for the built-in clock/alarm.
I'll give a free copy of the app out to the first 20 posters in this thread.
What single feature or frustration with the built-in alarm clock on your phone made you look for an alternative?
Thanks!
Mark.
Natural wake up..
Meaning that it starts to wake you up a little by little

The ui

"Dismiss" being too easy to hit. When it first goes off, I want to snooze a couple times. I hate having to actually wake up and focus my eyes to make sure I'm hitting snooze instead of dismiss, which would be catastrophic.
If there were an option to make the whole screen snooze-only and have the power button be dismiss...or snooze with the first tap and dismiss with the second (or something like that), I would be SOLD.
UI and the snooze button,
Would love to try your app. I am currently using alarm clock extreme. The only thing I don't like about it is the ui.

Big snooze button, small dismiss button.
Option to change the snooze time.
Nice wake-up sounds.
UI, and lack of options
A ui that allows alteration of the screen saver

I have used various ones,alarms extreme to alarm plus.
But the one feature that is missing is not only using ringtone that gets louder but also use a light from front screen that gets brighter, suppose it is like natural light well that's what I want. B-)

i need math calculations to turn the alarm off
Lack of options
Sure I try it

+1 for math calculations! It's a great way to wake up the mind!
And regarding UI, something ICSesque would be nice!

The UI and would like the alarm to get louder and louder (natural wakeup?).
The stock one had a dumb thing, if I had my mobile in silence mode sometimes I didnt hear the alarm, im 100% sure I didnt sleep through it haha and I realy like a option to set music from your playlist as alarm ringtone

3x^2-2√(3)xy+y^2+2x+2√(3)y=0
It's sure to get your mind woken up and late to work.
+1 for natural wake up, and ability in calendar disable/enable alarms
Ability to wake to music of your choice.
Very nice UI & ofcourse many many options

Working on my N7.
Thanks dever. pls add some function like "show status bar on screen off, hide status bar on screen unlock..." and add widget to control status bar show/hide. thanks.
would be awesome if it can be hidden for the lockscreen only on jb :laugh:
Tried this but gives me a reboot after like a minute. Even the pro does. Maybe it conflicts with my settings and all. But great apps. Im using the gesture control, too bad cant use the hide bar thingy...
Good job! Works like a charm on Motorola RAZR xt910 ICS 4.0.4.
Please add 'exit' button when I run app and when bar is hidden there are no way to go to homescreen when I using tablet mode on Lapdock.
+1 to widget control and restore bar when screen off.
Thanks

I'm using the paid version of gesture control, and I love it. One think I'd like: replacing the Launchpad with a "recent tasks" window. Right now my launchpad consists of a single button to the task switcher, but I'm lazy and I'd like to have one action less to get there..

This application is pretty similar to HideBar (http://ppareit.github.com/HideBar/), an application that has been in development for over a year. It contains an intuitive user interface to hide/show the systembar.
I find the development of customizing tools like GMD very good. But as a developer you should not use the same name. This only leads to confusion for existing users.

This was not intended and happened just because title is kind of generic. Since there is no perfect solution for ICS yet without modding, it is good that alternatives are appearing so everyone can pick solution that works best for them.
I still have 50% of black navbar at my ICS tablet

The Cataclysm ROM has a setting to disable it, which is good for me since using the LMT pie control on the bottom of the screen totally doesn't work well with the Google Now gesture.

I just developed an app for that, enjoy

While this question is not directly related to Nexus 5, but since it is one of the few devices running KitKat, I'm posting it here. Its been more than a month since KitKat has launched, but even today the "immersive mode" (which I feel is SO important!) has not been translated to many apps that I use regularly -- Kindle, Pocket, Feedly etc. Its not like these apps haven't updated in the last month or so (they have). Is there any reason why these companies have not considered putting immersive mode as a priority item?
Stability is always the priority. Ask the developers of each app if they plan to support it. We don't know the answer in that, we cannot read minds

There is an Xposed module on these forums somewhere, that enables immersive mode everywhere. It has a few flaws though, as some apps just don't work right with it, or once the navigation bar pops back up, it cuts off the portion of the screen.
However the ones that did work with it, it worker great. It would be nice for someone to make an app or tweak to force selected apps into immersive mode, while allowing the navigation bar to stay where needed.

I still use expanded desktop + PIE controls. I think it works better than immersive mode. I turn it on when gaming.
I used the "Immerse me" xposed module, but it had some issues. Fore example in the AOSP messaging app, when the keyboard popped up, the last message received appeared inbetween the keyboard and where I was typing the message, but only partly. part was behind where I typed teh message. I found that disorientating. Also in tapatalk, which I use a lot - when the keyboard came up, teh top of tapatalk (the tapatalk toolbar) disappeared and I couldn't scroll. Really tricky to use with Pie as I had to keep backing out of the keyboard to do things within tapatalk when typing messages.

Could you elaborate on this? A quick play store search couldn't find expanded desktop, but I found something called pie control.

Hey man thanks for this! This is pretty much what I've been wanting. Now I can use the full resolution of my nexus 5! Great for streaming my PC games. Woohoo!
Would still be nice to have some sort of way to choose what apps go full screen, cuz it would just be easier to already have the nav bar for apps that are better suited for it, then go away on ones you want full screen for, but this is still a lot better than the immersive module for xposed. Thanks again.

Hey no prob, happy to help. It kinda breathes new life into the phone, doesn't it? This mod saved my N5 from being tossed in a drawer. I use it more than my Moto X now, just because of gaming on its 5" screen.
If you like it, please support!

The app imitates the beheaviour of Air Gesture from Galaxy S4 (some options need root like gallery swipe and browser scroll) It also emulates Quick Glance, Air Call accept etc etc..
You can also control your music/video players, start your desired app on a move, switch to previous apps, jump to launchscreen....you can check the features bellow.
I had the s4 and remember this. I now have the s5. Did it not come with this? I can't remember where the setting was on the s4 to look on my s5.

S5 comes with it, called Air Wake UP. But this APP offers more functions such as you can hovering your hand above screen to lock it.
I like it. One thing though....is there a way to disable it showing on status bar as running?
