So far this is a great app. I had to knock two stars off because with it being synced with multiple devices, the alarm will ring on all devices, however you have to disable the alarm on each individual device. Dismissing the alarm isn't synced and that's a big issue for me. I haven't found a way to unsync the devices yet, but I will or uninstall on secondary devices.

I don't normally write reviews but this app has been a godsend for my ADHD. being able to easily reschedule an actual alarm instead of a notification that sits forever and gets forgotten is a game changer. Plus having it hooked up with my husband means either of us can create reminder alarms for each other. also it serves an unintentional purpose, my husband can get a hold of me if I'm in an area of spotty signal. He sets an alarm that rings as soon as I get signal again and can call him back

I switched from Life Reminders app after over 10 years for lack of developer response to a problem that rendered the app useless. (Response from Galarm is outstanding) Still trying to find one that can compete, this one is closest so far, but I'd have to pay for the extra alarms setting options I was used to for free w/Life Reminder; but did have to pay to become ad free with them. Only con: I've never had my phone battery die before the end of the day and since I installed this app, it does .

I wanted an alarm that I could adjust the volume on. This does that, technically, but even the softest volume woke up my baby half way across my house and scared me half to death. So if you want a loud alarm, this works great. If you want something quiet, this is not it. On a technical note, the app messes with the volume of my phone. The sound and vibration edit page actually made my audiobook a lot louder as I adjusted the alarm volume. Plus, that sound preview is completely inaccurate.

It works very well on my Android, so far. Nice features, choices of layouts and alarms. One thing I urge the developer to redesign is the size and location of the Snooze "button." It should be much larger and centered on the screen. When users are waking up, still sleepy and bleary-eyed, it's too easy to tap Done instead of Snooze (the likely, common response) because Done is the largest text on the screen.

It works great. Does exactly what I need. I love the ability to use my own tunes for alarm notifications. Only issue is the widget. I would like to be able to adjust the font size so I can get more more notifications on the screen. Also when they update the app the settings revert back to the default. If they had a perpetual license I would purchase.

Great app so far. When I found it I thought it would be perfect for recurring and repeating alarms for work needs. At first use it wouldn't ring correctly. I submitted a help request and soon after the Galarm team notified me that a ln update to fix the bug was available through the app store. It now works exactly as advertised. I havent used the alarm sharing functions, dont really need that option. This was the best app I could find for organizing various alarms that need to repeat.

My friend has bad sleep paralysis and I told them to use this app and wake me up after it happens so I can comfort them. The initial setup was a bit confusing, and I wish there were custom alarm sounds you could set, but it works wonders if you need to wake somebody up quickly. This is the only app I could find that did what I was looking for, and it's helped a lot. I wish it didn't require inputting your phone number, though. They could have let us choose Gmail for those without phone numbers.

I like the app very much so far. It has all the different features I need, such setting an alarm every 2 hours and things like that. Unique tunes that I like. The only thing that bugs me is that when I set a new alarm or edit, I'll think it's good to go except I find out too late that I missed the the last step in saving. You actually have to save it twice before it sets. Not liking that it's easy to overlook that once you save it the first time.

So far so good! I like that it has an upbeat, cute ringtone. What distinguishes this alarm app is that: 1) You can set up group alarms. 2) It can also ring for more distant future events (say next month), like for paying the bills or picking up meds from the pharmacy. (You could even have it ring your partner to pick up your meds 😍). 3) it can ring several times a day. (water anybody?) I have not fully delved into this app yet, but it seems to have endless possibilities. Kudos!
