Would appreciate an option to set how much time goes by from when the alarm starts to when the volume is maxed out (in the case you selected "gradual volume increase"), so that yoy could set it to 10 seconds or whatever you wanted. Otherwise, thats pretty much a 10/10 alarm app. Oh yeah, and also it seems like it wont start playing anything coming from any source if screen is locked, even if you set the screen lock to "Swipe" (so no PIN nor passwords or anything like that). You can still use it as long as you set you phones lock screen to "None", but that should be fixed. Pls ^^.

When the Spotify app is already open, the alarm successfully starts the song I have told it to. If the Spotify app is not running when the alarm goes off, Spotify will open to the song, but will not automatically start playing it. Also, please provide a way to "test run" an alarm. As an alternative, please don't limit countdown alarms to a minimum of 60 seconds before starting.

Just what I was looking for. Kinda wish I could just make a playlist in the app and then link the playlist URL to LinkAlarm, but I haven't tried yet. Gonna wake up on the right side of the bed tomorrow ha!

Changing my rating. It does appear to start Spotify premium when offline, So the inability to select a fallback file is not critical. Still does not inspire confidence. So desperate to have something to work offline, would gladly have paid for it.

The app sometimes works (5%) when opening a movie file. The rest of the time it either opens the wrong file (previously selected) or opens Youtube. Sometimes the file starts, sometimes Youtube starts, sometimes not. I've paid for the app and it's still coming up with trial expired. Not really sure how to handle that one so I''ll be asking for a refund. Good idea, but idea's are 10-a-penny these days.

I love the idea and want to use this alarm. But, it makes me nervous to use the app because it won't open Spotify if it can't connect to the internet, but it also crashes whenever I try to select a local file.

About this app

[WARNING: This app may change in compatibility when the apps you use, update how they play links themselves. This app can make apps open links as an alarm clock]

LinkAlarm is the unique and all-purpose alarm clock for your phone!

Open links or files by setting alarms, combine them in your own playlists and use the apps on your phone in new creative ways. Use "Share" in your apps to add new content quickly.

LinkAlarm uses the apps on your phone to play links or files. It also comes with the unique YouTube Quickplay feature, that allows you better control over volume, screen-orientation and LinkAlarm-playlists.

The app is a file player and a link player, but it uses the dedicated apps on your phone to open those links. It can work as an app launcher, a youtube alarm clock, a spotify alarm clock, a local music alarm clock, a soundcloud alarmclock , an image slideshow and map/directions alarm. It comes with playlists, snooze feature, countdown timer, and recurring alarms.

Supports (depending on version and ONLY if the apps are installed! Add tracks by using "Share" from the apps -> "Add to LinkAlarm"):

- Youtube
- Spotify
- SoundCloud
- Local music tracks
- Basically everything you have an app for, that's the idea

Use LinkAlarm as an alarmclock, reminder-tool and content-manager, flexibility is by design. Mix and match the different links as you like.

Start the day your way - World Wide Wakeup!

----

pro-tips:

*If no music/sound has been playing at all for 30 seconds after an alarm, and your connection is working, the app will try its 'fallback' song. Remember to set this track on important alarms.
This way you don't have to worry about YouTube, Spotify or SoundCloud not working when you're sleeping.

* If you are using the native YouTube app, Stop automatic screen shutdown when charging, in settings. Or set longer time for screen timeout. Spotify will work with the screen turned off, but not YouTube.

New features

- Trial extended to 5 days
- In the integrated YouTube Quickplayer, videos with ads would never autoplay. If this happens, and the autoplay doesn't fire, LinkAlarm will try another item in your track-list until something fires.
- Remember to use the "Share" feature from INSIDE any app you want to play content from (YouTube, Spotify, SoundCloud, etc).
- Also, please remember that Spotify playlists aren't autoplayed, only individual tracks (use the "share" feature by long-clicking on a track).
