Then to get back to the timer I have to go find the clock app because letting users tap on the running timer in the notifications area (Android does this) would be too convenient. I push the wrong button for turning off a timer 100% of the time. On Android, you literally just tap the alarm one time. The buttons are all over the screen so you have to do the awkward phone-shuffle multiple times just to set your alarm 15 minutes earlier than usual. To go with your clock app example, editing an alarm is ridiculous. And it's not in obvious ways either, so long-time or exclusive iOS users have no idea how bad it is. It's crazy how less functional/usable a lot of Apple's first party apps are than Android equivalents. This morning I was woken up by the sleep alarm and when I set a new alarm for 15 minutes later it scheduled it for the next day and I overslept. Lastly the sleep alarm being separate from the "other" alarms just feels wrong. The equivalent on iOS, just sounds off, like its a scene from a scary movie in a jungle. For example, the default android alarm sound is soft piano with birds in the background. I know there is the sleep alarm but those sounds are still terrible. This could just be me, but why are the default alarm sounds so sudden? I always wondered why my iOS friends had the worst sounding alarms until I got my iPhone. I understand the reasoning behind this but it is so confusing. The timer is stop on the big button and repeat on the little button. Alarm is snooze on the big button and stop on little button. The least they could do is let me know I set it for pm instead of am.Īnother thing I don't like is when my alarm is going off the home screen just displays two buttons, and the worst is the buttons are flipped for when a timer goes off. ![]() Android lets you know your alarm is set for X hours and X minutes from now. ![]() Ok but how about let me pick my own sound from my files? no problem, simply download iTunes on your computer, import the song to iTunes and wait for it to backup to iCloud (yes this is the only way to do it, also no, I could not get it to work).Īlso, when you set an alarm it doesn't have any indication that you set the wrong time. What about make the alarm gradually get louder? Too bad. Also want to have your alarm play a song from Spotify? Too bad. why are the most basic features missing? Like you cannot set two timers? So if I have laundry going, I guess I'll guess how long I have been boiling my noodles. Seriously apple, the clock app is well overdue for an update. I recently switched from android and I am appalled on how horrible the clock app is on iOS.
