Alarm Clock Xtreme 3.6.11
UI focusing on usability rather than appearance
The design of this app seems a bit chunky and not very stylish, although the color theme can be changed to any shade you wish. In addition, you can change the language of the alarm or the hour format from 12 to 24 hours. The alarm can be set in portrait or landscape view and screen brightness can also be changed.
Also, you can choose from three notification icons for your phone's status bar. All the basic settings for your alarms must be done from the menu and not when you set it up. So, you can set the app to provide a snooze countdown, gently vibrate or backup settings to your SD card.
Set as many alarms and timers as you like
The app allows you to create multiple alarms and timers, for all special situations in which you need them. Also, you can label them. You can set your favorite song or a ringtone as the alarm sound, or set a random song.
There are also many snooze methods you can choose from like pressing the screen button, side buttons, shaking the device or solving math problems. The latter is an efficient method of making sure you've actually woken up before you'd be able to turn off your alarm.
The app also comes with on screen widgets. Although it sports a clean interface, the app comes with banner ads even in the menu and nagging icons with suggestions of other apps by the developer.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
Simplistic design that doesn't stand out from other alarm clock apps. Still, the theme color can be changed and users may choose one of the three clock icons. |
Function8
It performs well overall but the UI is non-responsive at times. It has widgets and the math solving feature for disabling the snooze function. |
Security7
It wants access to many areas of your phone, including internet connection, photos, call information and other. |
Battery5
A definite battery drainer, the app wasn't well optimized and seems to take up a lot of power resources. |
Price8
No in-app purchases but comes with annoying banner ads on all screens. Also, the developer is marketing some of its other apps. |
Compatibility8
The developer didn't mention Android versions compatible with this app, nor if it would work on tablets or Android Wear. |
A cute alarm clock app that doesn't come with any unique or interesting features.
