User Reviews

Big Ben Bonger is praised for its authentic, ad-free clock chime experience that keeps accurate time and is easy to use. Users love the nostalgic chimes and background play for keeping track of time or ambiance. However, recurring issues include app crashes, unreliable background operation, and limited chime options. Requests for enhancements like better volume control, more chime varieties, and added features (ticking sounds, widgets) are common. Despite flaws, the app remains a favorite for those who appreciate classic clock sounds as productivity aids or soothing reminders.

Pros

Authentic and nostalgic chime sounds that effectively mimic Big Ben and other classic clocks.
Ad-free experience without in-app purchases, which is highly appreciated by users.
Consistent and accurate timekeeping, with chimes that reliably sound on the hour and quarter-hour.
Simple and easy to use interface without unnecessary complications.
Ability to run minimized with chimes continuing to play, supporting background use for reminders and ambiance.

Cons

App sometimes stops working or crashes, requiring reboot or reinstallation.
Chimes may stop working when the app is running in the background or after system 'close all' actions, affecting reliability as a time reminder.
Limited selection of chime options; users desire more variety like St. Michaels and Whittington chimes.
Lack of independent volume control within the app; volume is tied to system volume keys, causing inconvenience.
Desire for additional features such as ticking sound, customizable pauses between chimes, or widgets for the home screen.

Good app but need some improvements 1- Auto start the service on device booting without need to open the app. 2- Add an option to exclude some days (like the weekends) from the quiet time. Thanks 😊
