## Description

Can't part with your iPhone on the holiest day of the week?  We've got the solution!

Shabbos Clock is the app for every Jew who celebrates the Shabbat.

Features:

* Displays current time on screen.
* Unlimited Alarm Options
* Alarms automatically shut off after specified duration (10-50 seconds)
* No snooze button to interfere with Shabbos rules.
* Repeatable Alarms by Weekly Pattern
* Set Alarms Based Off Of Offsets Of Your Local Sunrise & Sunset
* Full iOS11 and iPhone X Support

Important: For the alarm to be triggered, you must leave this application open.  Closing the program or the iPhone will prevent the alarm from waking you up.  Please also make sure your ringer volume is loud enough to wake you up.  Make sure to plug in your device to prevent battery drain from not waking you up.  Test BEFORE Shabbos to confirm your setup works.

Note: If you are using an iPod Touch first generation, make sure to plug in external speakers to hear the alarm.
