DESCRIPTION
Alarm Clock is a menu item alarm clock for setting either one-time alarms or repeating alarms. Then choose anything in the iTunes library to wake to: songs, playlists, even podcasts. The application takes care of the rest, even waking the computer from sleep if needed.

You can configure your snooze duration to the length you want. You can even increase/decrease your snooze time right from the alarm window. Plus, if you have an apple remote, you can even hit snooze without getting out of bed. And if waking up to blaring alarms in the morning isn’t your cup of tea, there's an 'easy wake' option which will gradually increase the system volume over time. And even this is configurable for you!

GENGIS  I'm a software developer, for some time I looked around for a good alarm clock for my Mac, but after some tries I was almost decided to develop an app by my own. Fortunately I took a last look before to start the work, and found this great app! It is exactly like I would have tried to develop it! I like it because:

- It is very simple, it does not integrate tons of features, but just a small set of really useful ones;

- You can set it and forget it, unlike other programs that require you to check every night the settings or the system volume in order to be sure to wake up the next day;

- It is dependable, I used it for some months now, and it never failed;

- The 'easy wake' feature is great, I really never had an alarm clock so gentle before;

- Has a beautiful and comfortable user friendly interface.

Finally, this application is free, but I think it really deserves a donation fot its high quality.

If I can ask a feature to the developer it would be the ability to set, for each alarm, whether the snooze function should put the computer again into sleep mode.

SATCOMER  This still works in Snow Leopard! I am so happy at this program because it does exactly what it says it will do, wake you up living in the Menu bar. I even have donated because this program is that good.

IMAGE_CTRL  I have been using Alarm Clock for years and it wakes me every time without issue. The default alarm sound is gentle and sounds exactly like an old (actual) alarm clock radio i use to own years ago. Thank you very much for this application.

SEENEW  Awesome app! I used this for two years as my alarm clock at school, worked so much better than my old noisy clock radio.

However, since my upgrade to Leopard, Alarm Clock will no longer read my iTunes library! :( When I go to set the Easy Wake song, the "source" drop down menu is blank, as well as the list below it! Please fix it, I miss waking up to my music!

Thanks, and keep up the great work!

KEDOS  Wish it would play music through iTunes in the morning, so I can play it on my wireless airport speakers. Also, since Leopard I have had trouble with making Alarm Clock wake my computer from sleep.

Besides that, it's a great app.

MUDFLAPPER  I just love this li'l app. The timer window is designed well--I like the use of transparency. The menu item icon is nice and simple. Great job.

RORO01  THE BEST ALARM CLOCK!

Very efficient, effective & reliable. You can use Audio Recorder to record yourself singing. Your singing will definitely wake you up! ;-)

COPILOTO  I will join the group of very satisfied users of this app and throw in my 2 cents. This is an awesome app: it is simple, reliable, and unobtrusive. I use it all the time, not only the alarm, but the timer. Previous to that, I was using Minuteur as a timer, but Minuteur is a whopping 24MG program for such a simple function. Thank you for the app and for the time you dedicate to it.
