So many distractions...

I've just released version 2.3.4 of the alarm clock. It's been a while since I've had a lot of time to work on the application, and I apologize for not getting this release out earlier. I've had a lot of distractions lately. The main distraction is the new software project I'm working on. If you like my alarm clock, you're probably going to LOVE this new one.

Maybe You can add a little note into the alarm window? I think it will be more useful. and timer was not pop uped - only sound. thanks

Would it be possible to leave the music playing instead of turning it off, as an option. At the moment, I get up and leave the music playing, but it always turns off before i head out.

Brilliant alarm clock though, keep up the good work :-)

I sent an email about this, but is there any chance you can disable the 'Kill alarm' feature?

I tend to sleep through the alarm and would like to let it run until I manually turn it off.

Thanks.

Hey I would like to request a feature for the next version.

Here's what I'm thinking...

I've become so good at hitting the snooze that I can do it unconsciously. What I want is an option to disable the snooze from working after hitting it so many times.

Many people have requested that I disable the kill alarm feature. I'm really having a hard time believing that I should do this. I do realize that many people like to let their music continue playing in the morning... BUT... it's also the case that these same people will occasionally forget about their alarms. Maybe they'll crash at someone else's place, maybe they'll go out of town for the weekend, or maybe they'll just walk out the door in the morning without turning their alarm off. Either way, I envision this happening, and the alarm clock for these people will annoy their neighbors all day long. How about I just increase the allowed kill duration up to about 2 hours. Is there anyone out there who takes more than 2 hours to get up and leave for work?

I do love the Alarm Clock... so I really can't wait to see what new ingenious app you're working on!

P.S. - hope you got my translation... I wasn't home, so it's a bit late...
