Does what it says on the tin, and wakes me up in the morning. 👍👍 Only slight issue I've experienced is that alarms that aren't set to repeat will still repeat if you don't manually switch them off. Annoying if you're not near your NFC Tag

A reliable, versatile and highly customizable alarm clock app which gets constantly improved, without making any compromises to user's privacy. It's also one of the very few alarm apps that offers short auto snooze and auto dismiss time options (seconds), which are greatly appreciated features by all light sleepers. The heavy dozers are covered too, no worries 👍 Great work, pal!

First time writing a bad review, but this app deserves it. Dear developer: Instead of only targeting the latest Android versions, why ignore older devices? My phone on Android 10 never rings the alarm, but it works perfectly on my other device running Android 15. This shows poor compatibility across devices. Many third-party alarm apps handle old Android versions much better. Please optimize your app, so it works reliably on all phones!

I slept over with this alarm. It promised NFC dismissal, but I didn't need to wake up. Just swiped the alarm away from my bed.
