Ratings and reviews

Pretty good talking clock. The previous version had issues with reading some times in a very weird way, which has been fixed. It's still a little awkward in some ways, but not too bad. If this were polished and a few more options for announcement interval added, I think it would be pretty much perfect.

Hi. Just started using this app so still on trial! However, having used a similar app for 2yrs I found it crucial to aid my condition if there was an option to add automatically updated day & date notification to each time one. Any chance of something alike sometime in the near future? Also add a schedule for announcements to set so on in chosen waking hours but silent/reduced overnight. Big plus so far is the simplicity of set up. More stars to come if proves reliable!

Paid for this in hope it would be worth it. It was. Does exactly what I want and continues over night perfectly. The only fault, for me, is it doesn't have a 24 hour option. I don't need to hear if it's AM or PM.
