1. It also does not seem to be able to overcome the lock screen so I would have to leave my phone unlocked all night, which wouldn't be that big of a deal, except that when this app activates it does not come to the foreground so there's no light change.It's a simple and good looking app.
2. But I need to find one I can trust.** Updated 9th November following some amendmends by the developer** The original review is underneath, however since then, the developer has been in touch and made amendments, such as starting the brightness at a lower level so that the initial turning on of the screen is not so intrusive.
3. Maybe i expected too much....certainly dont understand the 5 star ratings in any case.Used this app religiously for months, and it was perfect at gently waking me up with light and sound, however after the Android 10 update it doesn't seem to be working, despite checking that permissions are given.
4. At present, i still find the use a bit clunky, for example the screen comes on 30 minutes before the time you set the alarm.
5. The "sunrise" comes completely on, lighting the screen suddenly (no fading and colour change as expected), and the sounds didn't start (i didn't give them chance).
6. Wanted to love it... I love how low-key this app is, and straightforward, but I think the problem is that it can't draw over other apps so when the app activates it does not come to the foreground of my screen.
7. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to allow more than one alarm and the alarm needs to be reset every day despite the 'repeat' option being selected.
8. Two mornings in a row - no birds chirping, no screen changes (except for right now as in typing and have it open in the background it's going light then dark over and over).
9. I like that I can change the sounds and the amount of time the light comes on my phone before I wake.
10. The app badge shows up in my notification bar, but the screen and alarm never come on.
11. Very sad as no other app I have tried since gently increases the volume of the alarm as well as light.
