Hourly chime PRO deprecated
Caynax Hourly Chime - advanced hourly chime (hourly alert, hourly beep).
Migration notice.These days we all get more powerful smartphones while battery capacity doesnt change. So some device manufacturers add their own battery optimizations that totally ignore Android system battery settings. On some devices even if user turned off all device manufacturer battery optimizations (which he isnt even aware of so he blames developer for not working app) this app worked with delay or didnt work at all.Some time ago we discovered that some device manufacturers use not too smart battery optimization solution - it turned out that if we add magical keyword "alarmclock" to so called application package name then app always works properly - sometimes even without turning off any battery optimizations for it.Unfortunately that results in releasing new app as each application has its own unique package name. We have decided to take that step as we get bad ratings while this is not really our fault. You can find "new" app here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.caynax.hourlychime.alarmclock.proUser simply wants to download app and use it and he cant because device manufacturer stops app process after some time to save battery. Most users arent aware of (additional) battery settings. On some devices they are available in different places so turning them off requires user engagement and its faster to simply remove "not working app". Even after making all battery changes when it comes to some device manufacturers our app still didnt work. Until making that "alarmclock" change.Google allows us to generate 500 promotional codes each 3 months so that we can slowly start migrating users who have problems on their devices to this "new/v2" app version which is to be honest exactly the same app as "old" app version and differs only in package name. Until most users migrate to this "new" app version "old" app will still be available to download but it will have higher price set so that current users could still download and update it while new users could start with "new" version.If you previously purchased this app then please contact us to get promotional code and migrate to v2 version for free.We are very sorry for any inconvenience.We wish Google would finally do something about that problem as it affects other developers.10.1.2Updated migration notice as some users got it wrong.Dont buy V2 app version - you already paid for this app.Mail us with mail address that you used to purchase V1 version to get promotional code and migrate to V2 version for free.10.1.1Added option to repeat sound chime (PRO version).Smaller application size.

Stoped working and now you want me to pay again for VS 2.... No thanks
I'm confused, why do I have to repay for the update v2?
Great app. Works really well and very useful. Developer is responsive and provides excellent support. Recommended. Thanks.
[BEST APP SUPPORT, 050121, Av10, A505U1] To all the idiots that can't properly rate an app properly! If you dont know what you talking about when the real pigs are Google and their stupid trash, BLAME THAT TRASH ON GOOGLE!! It aint the DEVs fault!! Google treat you like DOGS!! And you still feed them because they give you free stuff!! Whens the last time Microsoft cheated you?! That's right! Never! And yet everyone still whines because Microsoft gots guts! Google needs to come off their horse!
Does work as described, but (of course) use the new version instead.
Always found this app worked faultlessly, once I'd learnt the settings properly! Looking forward to using the new V2 shortly...
A time passage, alarm and alert app that can also act as a faceless clock; in my case, a cuckoo clock. Configuration is challenging initially but once done, works automatically. Can't Greenify. Reasonable footprint. Uses device's sound files. Sunrise/Sunset function is handy. Outstanding developer support.
Since this app doesn't work as intended, I must purchase the v2 after already purchasing this one?
Great App so far...
Been using this for years
