Awaken App Reviews

We wish to watch clock on screen while were listen ipod. This app still does one thing at a time. If you use sleep timer an ipod interface comin up instead of clock. Anway shaky wakey flshlight is cool.

It doesnt work, it usually misses the song selected as alarm...(due to iOs7?) I do not know! If you want to sleep, try this and no one will wake up.

It does exactly what iPhone alarm/clock does, but with TWO great fantastic advantages! - NO VIBRATION!!! during playing. - possibility to add full albums or playlist. Only no updates since 2013... Im thinking to abandon and to find something more modern....

When I first downloaded this app several years ago I loved it, but with each OS upgrade the app became less and less reliable until, ultimately, I had to delete the alarm Id set that morning and create a new one that night for the following morning ... EVERY single day. Finally I got sick enough to delete the app altogether and purchase Nightstand Central, which is MUCH better.

At first it worked great. But now...its pretty unreliable. I push the button to on and then save only to go back and check and its back to off (when setting my alarm). Ive had it go off while my phone was on vibrate. Ive had it not do anything while Ive purposely waited for it to go off. Ive deleted and reinstalled it and same thing.

What the heck? 3 updates to fix the alarm functionality... and they still cant fix this silly alarm. Whats the sense if I have to set the iPhone built in app as well just to trust Ill be awoken? Live the Mac app.... The iPhone app needs to prove itself. Stay away for now.

I just bought the app after 1.8.2 was released, so I cant speak to previous versions, but it has been running flawlessly on my old iPhone 3G running iOS4 for a few days now. I really like the customization available (I prefer the red LED look). Ive tried several alarm clock apps and so far this one is my favorite.

Ive been running this app for months now, and I have yet to find any issue with the alarm. Certainly none in the latest release. If youre having a bug, have you filed a bug report with Awaken support? Direct contact with the apps makers usually gets better results than kvetching in the app reviews...

Nice features but turned into a train wreck after iOS 4. Could be that Im using the 3GS but its bugged, update after update.

Love this app. Would just like to see a countdown timer.

I am having none of the issues described by others. The best app to wake up to your iPod.app music, with a great UI for song management. Other features like the Flashlight (also with great UI) and Fall Asleep timer are just icing on the cake. Highly recommended over other Alarm apps.

I really like this application because it does what it is supposed to, but it also has a gorgeous design. Please think about including: 1. Weather information on the clock screen. 2. Timer functionality (like the mac app). 3. Fixing the delay between locking the phone and the music continuing to play. Overall though, really nice job!

Much better than alarm clock pro. *update This was the case, but since the update it has become totally unreliable, to the point where I have resorted to using alarm clock pro **problems fixed, very nice, but how about some new clock styles?

Set an alarm on my iPhone 4. Never went off.

WTF, I have missed my class couple of times because of this app. The alarm never goes off, i am deleting this app right now, before i miss anymore more of my classes frustrating and waste of money. DONT BUY THIS APP

I have tried all the alarm apps and this one has been the best by far. Always reliable and most functional. Has a good snooze system and the themes look great with the numbers efficiently filling the screen in landscape which is great for people who need glasses. Wish the snooze button was bigger, could use automatic weather report based on automatic location.

Its too hard to really turn off an alarm. Too many Times it stayed in snooze mode and rang again to annoy my family. App deleted. The standard alarm is good enough and follows the design standards.

Love it--great themes and very reliable!

I am happy that the update now allows you to keep playing your iPod music/podcast while you launch the app. Very practical. However, I am still annoyed that there is no way to turn the alarm off outside of using the home key to exit the app. But when you relaunch the app the alarm is STILL GOING. What am I missing. Even when I go to the "alarm" options and delete that particular alarm it is STILL GOING. This doesnt make the app useless, but it is annoying and frustrating. What are you to do if you set a wrong alarm and you are trying to fall asleep but the alarm interrupts your slumber. The only available option when the alarm begins is "Snooze." Why? Please help me.

I really like the design and feel of both the desktop and iPad versions. But I would like two additional features. 1) I use the quick timer feature a lot. Please add a quick way to do a 2 minute timer....I am a GTD fan and use this feature a ton on the desktop version. 2) I would like to sync my alarms / timers between the desktop and iPad. Thanks for writing good mac stuff.
