Progressive Alarm Clock by Spotlight Six Software

Progressive Alarm Clock Screenshots



Description

Progressive Alarm Clock will wake you up gently and gradually using the beautiful sounds of the Tibetan singing bowl. At the specified alarm time, the bells will begin to ring in a pre-defined pattern - starting out softly and slowly and gradually getting louder and more frequent. You'll come out of your slumber slowly and peacefully. No more being jolted awake.

+ After setting the alarm, the app can be put in the background - allowing you to use other apps. At the specified alarm time, the alarm pattern will begin.

+ Choose from five pre-defined patterns with varying bell schedules and escalation lengths.

+ Choose from six different bells of varying size and metal compositions - from bright and clean to deep and complex with lovely overtones.

+ You may enter journal notes upon awakening - great for recording your dreams before the memory fades. You can then go back and review your journal entries and you may export the journal via email. For privacy, you may set a password to prevent unauthorized access.

+ To save battery, you may lock your device's screen and the alarm will still work. Either start the alarm and press the lock (sleep) button, or turn on the "Auto-Lock" setting.

+ This app uses the same amazing bell sounds used in our Insight Timer meditation timer. Here are some app store comments pertaining to the bells:

This alarm is worth the $ (5 stars)
I've had this app for a year now and am recently using it every day. It's super reliable. The "sure wake" is for real. When you hear it, you've probably snoozed too much and it's time to get up! :) awesome app! The progressive sound is great too.

REQUEST: Could the developers please add an option to have a repeatable alarm? I have to manually set it every night. Thank you! I'd definitely pay more for that.

Brilliant! Simply brilliant! (5 stars)
I love this app! I have never had any problems with it at all. There is something so peaceful about waking up with repeating bells that seem to come closer to you slowly. Quite a difference from the typical "jolt you awake" style that leaves you with a pounding heart and a stressful start to the day.

Once a few years ago I purchased a progressive alarm clock made out of wood which had one metal tube attached. It cost $10

Best clock app ever (4 stars)
I LOVE waking up to this alarm. I start my day so calmly now. Many thanks to the creator. The ONLY downside for me is the battery drain and that you have to set it every night. But those are small gripes compared to the peaceful awakening you get from this app. This app has the same features (and more) as the $150 Zen clock I was considering. Best $1.99 I ever spent.
