Guest removed-2 Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 What is the best alarm clock for the Pocket PC. I have a hermes and the built in alarm is rubbish. I am looking for one with a large snooze button and a very small dismiss button as I keep hitting dismiss instead of snooze. I would also like it to be able to play MP3 from storage card and have unlimited number of alarms. I have tried Chronos and SPB Time but didn't really get on with them. Either not big enough snooze button or didn't always activate when phone in standby. There must be a decent alarm program out there some where. Please help.. I'm late again today.. Thanks Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dseiden Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 The built in alarms are certinaly worthless. I have the TyTn and have been using the SPG option but have not been that thrilled with it hinestly. I will do a search and check out City Time Alarms. Hope this fits the bill. Way back when I was using a palm and there were much better alarm apps for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mark Not really designed as an alarmclock, but.... John Cody's alerts is what I use. Selected to launch WMP10 and play songs. Very configurable, will add to Poutlook if desired. http://www.omnisoft.com/alerts/default.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selected to launch WMP10 and play songs. Very configurable, will add to Poutlook if desired as much as I love JC alerst city time alarms does the same and allow POUTLOOK to show the time and date of the next alarm so it show on your today screen but the actual memry space the program takes up is about one thirs that of JC alerts. I highly recomend both but fr me and limited space on my device city times one out and that was the only thing to sway one way over the other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest yildi Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 I have nearly tested all of them since the alarms of STopTime do not work on my TyTN (I was very happy with this old freeware on my 4700). I have chosen Chronos which perfectly does what it should do and it is very reliable (I have been testing it for two weeks now). SPB Time is too resource hungry and PocketClock's alarm setting interface is not really very user friendly to my taste. But I was ignoring that Chronos was part of the Plus membership benefits ;) I would have adopted the membership instead of buying the soft ;-) Murat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest frankizzer Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 I think enAlarmPPC is exactly what you are searching for. I use it too and the snooze function is perfect and it has many other nice functions like MP3-playlists, multiple alarms and weekday selection too. It works very well on my WM2003SE device and on my WM5 device. And what it makes it even more attractive is, that it only costs 8$. You can check it out on handango (trial version available too): http://www.handango.com/affiliate/Platform...mId=41&R=205173 Official page: www.maik-wiege.de Greetings Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
