There is also an ad-free, unlimited version available: http://bit.ly/1SDHzhv

Features:

* Get woken up by ringtones, vibration, the screen light or flashlight - or all of them.
* Each alarm type can be configured individually, e.g. to use the phone screen fifteen minutes before the ringtone starts on low volume and gets louder in the next five minutes.
* Use NFC tags to lock alarm buttons, forcing you to get up to disable alarms (requires a device with NFC chip)
* Light alarm with either a single color or changing colors to gently wake you up and help you start your day the right way!
* Set up "active ranges" - dates during which the alarm won't trigger, e.g. your vacation. No need to manually deactivate the alarm on your last work day and reactivate it the night before - and no chance that you'll forget and show up late
* Set up alarms which only trigger on certain dates / date ranges, e.g. to wake up at 9 am during your vacation.
* Set up text messages which will be sent to your contacts if you're not awake by a certain time - e.g. to tell your car pool that they don't need to wait for you if you're not up at 7.00 am and your co-workers or boss that you won't make it on time today if by 8.00 am you're still using the snooze button.
* "Early riser": set up a target time and date, and your alarm will continually ring earlier every day until you wake up at your target time. Perfect if you're starting a new job in 30 days or are travelling to another timezone soon.
* Night clock: display a fullscreen clock on your phone after a configured time if you don't have a wall clock in your bedroom
