What's New
Version 1.4.2:
Updated ownership and website info. No changes in features at this time.
Over the past decade, I've paid good money for apps that only gets launched a few times before collecting dust. This one is different.
Despite the fact that it hasn't been updated in nearly 3 years, I still use Clockwork daily. And it's always simple and reliable, doing exactly what I need it to. It's amazing that Apple didn't just buy it and roll it into the OS. It's that good.
Granted, this MacUpdate page lists an outdated price. Clockwork is actually $19.95. But for a daily-use app that never crashes and always delivers... that's a bargain.
Since there's obviously no movement on this app, does anyone know whether the dev is actually doing anything with any of their other programs?
Although I might be mistaken of the intended concept behind Clockwork, I'm desperately looking for a function to make it work as an alarm clock as well...
I can't for the life of me find a way to set an alarm at a specific time!
Sure, I can calculate in my head, that, if time's 8.26 in the morning, when I'm about to set my recurring (once a day) Lunchtime alarm, I will have to set it to 03:34:00 in Clockwork's 'alarm' mode.
I think the definition of 'alarm' in Clockwork is somewhat misleading, as it more resembles the functionality of a 'countdown' timer. An alarm, per se, (at least for me) is something you set, to go off at a specific time.
On a final note, about the application itself. It looks georgeous and I really want to find some use for it. But again, I was hoping it could work as a tea time, lunchtime, bedtime, morning coffee, etc. alarmer, which is easy to set up and easy to change in terms of such a schedule. Another thing I'd wish for, is a way to set off AppleScripts or open files at the alarm time.
