Alarm Plus 1.7.5.1

A stylish app for creating and managing alarms, while providing other time-related functions
Adding extra features to the system or improving the existing ones is something many users have as their goal, so numerous applications that can serve as alternatives to the default Windows Phone utilities have been developed.

For those who are not satisfied with the looks and the operation of the built-in "Alarms" feature can choose a replacement from the Store and among of the most coveted tool of this kind Alarm Plus stands out quite a bit.

Pleasant interface, with an intuitive layout

As soon as you open this application for the first time you will notice the clean GUI that offers some neatly polished graphics. The appealing look is consistent throughout the app and the navigation among the various sections is very smooth and glitch-free.

The commands are all placed at hand, for ease of access and of use, while the information about the stored alarms is presented in a clear and easy to read manner. The display is very responsive for the timer and stopwatch, as the screen updates are made in real time and without any faults.

Add alarms manually and manage them effortlessly

Alarm Plus provides a really simple way of creating alerts for the events you want to be notified about, so by tapping the plus sign in the lower side of the screen, the alarm customization screen will appear.

Besides giving the alarm a specific name and picking the frequency by selecting the days in which the reminder is active, you can assign different sounds. Some of the audio files are built-in the app and others are available inside sound packs that can be purchased.

Voice control and special features at a glance

The app supports voice commands, which is a great advantage when you want to add a new alarm or use one of the built-in tools, namely the stopwatch and timer functions, which can be started without having to enter Alarm Plus manually.

The application is ready to function even if the screen is locked and it can even disable the lock screen, provided that you activate these options from the "Settings" area.

There are also some customizations that you can make for the stopwatch, by enabling the milliseconds and also for the timer, by configuring a default value if necessary.
