Awesome app, love holo theme and all-in-one package!

Here are a few of my suggestions for future update:

-access to system alarm sound files
-notification icon when alarm/timer are running
-manual re-arrange of cities in world clock/auto arrange by time-zone
-DST indicator / +1day indicator in world clock
-multiple countdown events with own alarm choice in timer
-milliseconds in stopwatch

Would love to see any one of these incorporated into the next update. Thanks!

My suggestions are the same as mickey. Waiting for an icon on status bar

Suggestion that I miss on my Sg2 when it had the stock rom (few days): You could choose a pre-alarm music, so you could choose a soft and warm music that prepares you to wake up. I loved it!

Hi,

I just tried the app but every time I try to change the alarm sound file the app simply crashes. I tried various MP3s (short and long) but it doesn't change anything.

Any hints?

Phone: SGS 2
ROM: Paranoid Android JB 2.17
Kernel: Dorimanx 5.86 beta 4

regards, Holger

Same suggestions as other users, the notification for the time is a must and also the timer should remember the last time you used so when you tap on stop to stop the alarm it shows the last time used instead of 0 0 0 0
Nice app!

Excellent points, i agree with those suggestions as well.

In addition to that, mu suggestion is:

- once the alarm starts to ring, if i click snooze, the screen should be dark off not back to that bright alarm menu. This is not a good thing because once you click snooze that shiny white alarm menu makes your dark room like a disco :)

If those suggestions can be developed i belive this alarm app will be unique.

Hi,

I just found out why the app crashed! It was simply related to the app which I used to select the MP3 file. When selecting the alarm file with Solid Explorer Holo Alarm crash, when using PlayerPro Holo Alarm runs.

I never saw this behavior before.

Love the clean UI and swipable tabs. Some suggestions:
  • The city field was unintuitive; when I put in Seattle I wasn't sure what would happen. I like usaff22's suggestion about spinnable world. Or if you type in an unlisted city, possibly look it up via maps or wikipedia? It's a pain to guess-and-check about which city to list for a particular time zone.
  • It might not work with the nice clean UI, but multiple timers would be helpful. I often use Kitchen Timer so I can have multiple timers for cooking/baking/laundry.
  • Is there a timeout for the alarms? I tried with a 1 min timer, but it seemed like the alarm never ended by itself. Sometimes I forget my phone and I wouldn't want the alarm to full drain the battery.
  • Like others mentioned, a notification item would be helpful.
  • Some preloaded alarm sounds would be nice.
  • It's a minor issue, but in the theme picker when I select a theme it doesn't update the text of the settings until I accept and come back into settings.

Also I love breakthestatic's idea about skipping tomorrow's alarm. That'd be very handy for vacation/sick days.
 
Would be great if you added mathematics to dismiss an alarm as this helps to really wake up in the morning. Also maybe the ability to chose your music folder so the app can play randomly any song when the alarm rings.

Anyways thanks for writing an awesome looking app, it is very apreciated.

I'm back !

Hi,
after a long absence, I'm back, I have moved to Montreal, I had not the time for the post,
I have however had the time to continue the application

some novelties,
- the application work for android 4.0 + because only 8% of download are from android 2.2-3.1 and it's a lot of work
- notification in timer and stopwatch ( jelly bean notification is coming )
- an internal music picker with phone ringtone and music on the phone
- support landscape mode
- greek, dutch, italian, french and Portuguese translation
- few other things

I have little problem on some phone with the internal music picker, so i add the "beta" in this post, if you want to test it and report me

Hi dalien26, nice to see you back!

Just one thing: I updated my Holo Launcher with the new version from the Play Store right now, and I don´t know why, it is all in a strange language to me. I believe it´s polish, don´t know for sure.

Can you see it?

Thanks a lot!
