## Description

Wake up softly with Tibetan singing bowls. Progressive Alarm Clock begins with a quiet chime and gradually increases in volume and cadence, helping you wake without a jolt. The alarm can run in the background, so you can use other apps and still be alerted at the set time.

Choose from five pre-defined patterns and six bells, with journal notes upon awakening and password protection for privacy. Features like auto-lock to save battery, snooze, Sure Wake backup, and a large landscape clock display round out a calming, reliable wake-up experience.

## Review summary

The app is lauded for a peaceful, progressive wake and multiple sound options at a good price, making mornings less stressful. However, repeat-scheduling limitations and occasional reliability problems—such as alarms failing or resetting—are common concerns. Users also want improved usability, including a larger snooze control, simpler setup, and separate control of alarm volume. Overall, a strong, soothing alarm with room to improve scheduling stability and UI.

### Pros

- Gentle wake with progressive volume and soothing chimes/bells
- Reduces wake-up stress by avoiding jarring alarms
- Wide variety of soft wake sounds and customization options
- Dependable and affordable; many users report long-term reliability
- Good overall value for the price

### Cons

- No repeating schedule or weekly presets; must set an alarm every night
- Occasional reliability issues (alarms failing to go off, resetting, crashes)
- Usability improvements requested (bigger snooze button, easier setup, and option for separate alarm volume)
