Comments

Overall, it does exactly what it says it does. My only wish is that it would be able to chime every quarter hour. I had an app in the past that would do that, but it is unfortunately not supported by the more recent system updates. But I guess I shouldn’t complain about it since it is free. I would like to have quarterly chimes and sound selections to choose from. Otherwise, it’s a very reliable product.

Wish you could make it an actual chime or bell noise, and not just a person's voice saying the time. I also wish there were more interval options, such as if you wanted a chime every 15 or 30 minutes instead, so it can be used kind of like a Pomodaro timer. Overall though, it meets my needs, and works as intended.

I've only tried this for an hour but that's enough for me to give up on it. The settings are comprehensive and it looks promising at first, but a single chime (playing a 4 minute song) already disappointed me. Where's the notification?? Enabled it in settings but not seeing it, and I was expecting that to be the way to stop the sound (like the inbuilt Clock and Calendar apps' notifications). There is also no other way to stop a long sound that I can find, other than the pro widget. Not cool!

This app is exactly what I need to cure my time blindness. However, when a notification goes off, it's as if an alarm is going, I cannot use the Gboard, I've got the assistant suggesting stop or snooze, when there is no alarm. I've also disabled alarm in the app settings, but still behaves like an alarm. Any suggestions? Pixel 7 Pro, Android 15

It looked promising at first. It chimes a few times, maybe even as promised for a couple of days, but then just stops for no reason. plays no sound after the first 4 or 5 chimes . I just want a 5 second quick chime. all I get is a notification that stays on screen to say “stop” every hour. I have had this installed for about 1 year. I have deleted several times and re installed but the same issues. I have given it long enough so now I’m unhappily uninstalling.

This is useful for time blindness and seems to be one of the only apps of its kind. I use a short chime and have it set to repeat the number of hours. Helpful to keep track of time on busy days. I wish there was an option to set two audio clips, one to ring once, the other to chime the number of hours. I wanted to mimic a carillon- it has a "pre" sound and then is followed by the bells chiming the hours. I recorded & created the clips for each hour manually to get the same effect. Thank you!!!
