Comments on Gentle Alarm for Android

★★★★★ I love this app and have been using it for years With the Samsung update I found that ALL alarms and timers quit working properly, not just this one, so the problem seems to be with the Samsung update, not Gentle Alarm.
★★★★★ Was having issues after Android update. Uninstalled/reinstalled, Messed with my phone settings a bit and it's working again! Have used this for years and was determined to fix the issue. For me personally, it was the update/change of the lock screen settings (Note 8). Turning my 'Always on Display' on was the key. 👌🏼
★★★★★ After Samsung update stopped working. Hold finger on app icon until menu shows up. select app info . select optimize battery. turn optimize for battery to off. Alarms should start working again.
★★☆☆☆ This used to be a 5 star review for years. I bought this app, twice actually, because I used to like it so much (bought it on the play store and off of it before it was offered here) and its the only alarm ive used for years. Sadly the latest android P makes it to where it no longer works. today I didnt wake up for work, and after testing this previously trusted alarm it wont ring at all anymore. sadly ill be replacing my favorite alarm. rip.
★★☆☆☆ Has stopped working on Samsung Galaxy S8+ after latest update (OS 8.0) Update: Appears to be working when battery optimization is turned off for this app... We'll see if it goes off correctly or if I'll be late to work again tomorrow...

An alarm clock shouldn't shell-shock you out of your dreams. That's why I created Gentle Alarm which tries to wake you up during light sleep using an optional pre-alarm.

Alarm clocks can't know if you are in light sleep or deep sleep (those movement based alarm clock don't work) but they can play a very quiet pre-alarm which you will only hear if you are in light sleep. If you are in deep sleep, you will simply sleep through the pre-alarm.

The pre-alarm plays 30min before you really want to get up (you can change that). If the pre-alarm wakes you up, you will be more refreshed than if you had slept until the main alarm because at that time you would have fallen back into deep sleep. Give it a try and I am sure you won't want to miss it anymore.

Of course, the app has all the usual features of a great alarm clock:
It can switch to a night display automatically when docking the phone. It can automatically shorten the snooze time with each time you press snooze. It can automatically create playlists of your favorite artist or genre. And it allows you to change colors, fonts, and backgrounds.

PERMISSIONS:

* RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: So it can activate an alarm after you reboot the phone. After reboot, all alarms of all apps are cancelled by default.

* WAKE_LOCK: So the phone can stay on while playing an alarm or while displaying the night display.

* DISABLE_KEYGUARD: When the alarm rings, you don't have to unlock the phone to be able to turn the alarm off.

* VIBRATE: obvious

* WRITE_SETTINGS: It adjusts some system settings such as airplane mode, silent mode, etc.

* WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: It logs some data on your SD card.

* READ_PHONE_STATE: So it can turn off the alarm when the phone rings and prevent an alarm from ringing while you are talking on the phone.

* READ_LOGS: So you can send me debug data (if you choose to)

* INTERNET: So that I can display ads (trial version only). Also, if the app crashes, it offers to send me a debug report directly to my servers. The app will politely ask you if you want to send that data or not. If you do, it needs an internet connection. If not, it doesn't but I still need the permission in the app because you may want to send the debug data.
