Awaken App Reviews

Great update

This app just keeps getting better. Although I wish that you hadnt changed the the opening animation, its only slightly different but I really liked the old one. The one where it slid open with the cool sound effect, instead of the the new one that fades away. So could you please change it back.

Great Alarm Clock

Easily the best alarm clock software in the app store. Would love to see a flexible snooze option where you pick how long you want to snooze each time you snooze. Probably have it show a dialog preset with the default, which disappears if you dont make any changes in 10 seconds.

Great app!

Tried a few other alarm clock apps and this is definitely my favourite. For updates, should consider showing the date across all clock styles (like on the flip-style clock).. Or at least the option to show it on all themes.

Prety good

Pretty good, would be nice to have the option to remove the stop alarm button Once I am awake I quit the app

Has potential but more problems

This app isnt really worth it at this point. Most of the clock styles are just color variants of the digital format (no wonder they dont show them all on the website), activating the app turns off music playing in the background, the settings are really hard to navigate and understand (when you need arrows saying tap here the interface is already broken) and it just keeps going on. I thought Id keep it to just have an alarm app, but ended up deleting it out of pure frustration.

Well done

Interface works fine. Use this everyday to wake to my music and flashlight is also handy. No reason for other reviewer to be frustrated.

Doesnt work half the time

Half the time this thing doesnt work because the earpiece is left in or another app is used before sleep or most recently it just doesnt work for no apparent reason. If you really need to wake up this isnt the app for you.

What the hell happened?!?!

This app used to be amazing until these damn updates! Now its glitching the crap out of my iPhone! I hate it! My alarm isnt even enabled right now and its still going off every 40 seconds. Fix this garbage! You just lost a customer Im switching to a new alarm this is ridiculous. Test before update! Rookies!!!

What happened? - UPDATED 1.7.1 Works great

This app worked flawlessly in 1.6 on a 3GS. Now either with the 1.7 update or the iPhone 4, it doesnt wake me up. I can test it for a couple minutes away to make sure it works and thats fine, but when I set it for the next morning (6:00AM) the alarm wont go off. This has happened to me twice now and I was late both times. Very unreliable. Ill test it more to see wether its a hardware (3GS/4) or a software (1.6/1.7) issue. I dont even care about the running in the back ground feature as long as the app will be reliable and wake me up when its suppose to. UPDATE: I tried this version with the 3GS and it also doesnt work. So it must be the software version (1.7). Ill try to uninstall and reinstall. Not holding my breath though. UPDATE-2: downloaded and installed the new version 1.7.1 that fixes a "critical alarm bug" and it works GREAT! Thnx for listening developers. Its back to an amazing app. 5 Stars UPDATE-3: app only worked for a bit, now back to the same original problem where the alarm doesnt come on. UPDATE-4: just downloaded 1.8. Will test it out and let you know. Okay Ive been testing out 1.8 for the last few days and its still doing the same thing. Its only going off about 30% of the time. Ive even tried it with airplane mode on and wifi off (no interruptions) still no good. This used to be such a sweet app, now I cant rely on it.

Too bad

Worked flawlessly for months, now its become unreliable and doesnt go off. I have to switch to a new app as I cant afford to wake up late! Good app gone bad!

Not reliable

Worked Wednesday. Worked Thursday. Failed Friday. Setting was "weekdays."

Wakes me up every day. :-)

Ive been using this app for many months without any issues. Read some of the comments below about issues but never experienced any of them first hand. Will continue to start my day with Awaken.

My fav clock!

I really think this clock is the best. It looks so good! Works really well playing one playlist going to bed with sleep timer and wales up with a different list. As one other person mentioned, I wish it would display the time when playing music. Perhaps it coul be overlayed on top of the album art?

There must be better alternatives out there

Unfortunately, this app doesnt always work as advertised. Its neat and ll but I found Night Stand HD to be much more reliable/

Simply not worth it

Its nice when it works, but this one simple doesnt, even worst is that when you press the lock button with the app opened as you should to have your music wake you up, it drains the battery... Just dont waist your money on this one!!!

Failed me again

I just woke up late for the third time with this app. Brutal. Im done with it. Ive never had a reliability problem with the built in iPhone alarm-guess Im heading back.

Really good app

Very good app. It always there each morning. It should be good when we have multiple song for wake up to delete the song from the list when we have listened it. Thanks ans great work

An expensive way to sleep in.

Unreliable, and frustrating. Has yet to work once this week.

Great App

Does everything I want in an alarm app!

No alarm

Since my upgrading to iOS8, the alarm doesnt go off as scheduled; I now cant rely on this app to wake me up on time.
