Great, thanks
Alarms are weekdays only by default, it seems. Be aware.
Awesome way to force yourself out of bed!
OMG this app is perfect. I'm finally awake and OUT OF BED. Just make sure to hide your nfc tags from your self and it will work perfectly. If there was an option to use a specific NFC tag to turn off the alarm, I would pay for that.
The best app to get out of bed on time. The developer was quick to respond to my questions as well. No ads, hassle free app.
Brilliant, you can use it so it won't turn off the alarm untill you scan an nfc tag, made my mornings so much easier!
