Features & Capabilities

Alarm is a self-defence/emergency alarm application with a rapid-movement and free-fall detector. You can also touch the screen to give a warning.

Not only a red screen blinking but also an alarm sound and a flash light are synchronized if the device has such functionalities.

The Apple Watch app also blinks but it's limited for a few time only to save the battery.

User Reviews

Most reviews view Alarm Free as impractical for real self-defense. The alarm is frequently too quiet, and it often fails when the phone is asleep or locked, delaying activation. Its functionality is very basic, providing a blink and a sound rather than a proven deterrent. A few users like the simple, one-tap alert or enjoy it as a harmless novelty, but the majority consider it ineffective and not worth relying on in danger.

Pros

One-tap emergency alert concept (easy to trigger to signal for help or deter an attacker).
Simple, easy-to-understand alert idea that some users appreciate as a quick signaling method.
Some users enjoy the app as a harmless novelty or prank, appreciating the lighthearted use.

Cons

Alarm is often not loud enough to be effective in real danger.
Does not work well when the phone is sleeping or locked, requiring unlocking and taking time to activate.
Extremely basic functionality (blink light + sound) with little real deterrent value against attackers.
Overall sentiment is largely negative, with many calling it useless or a waste of time.

So, I downloaded this thinking I'd use it as an irritation if (when) my cat jumps on the counter while cooking; and then maybe have it ready if I got into a sticky situation and wanted a deterrent. Nope, already uninstalled. It didn't even bother my cat.

I'm a diabetic and am always afraid I will go hypoglycemic which can cause an inability to articulate and the ability to perform only simple functions sluggishly. This is perfect to let someone know I need help without having to push a lot of buttons--just the icon. Well done, folks.

1st of all the app is for u the push the button to get attention or scare off your attacker. 2nd the proper way to spell is (know) not as you did (no). It's no wonder u don't know how to use the app! I agree its stupid but nothing compared to how stupid your comment is!!!!!!
