Description

Migration notice.
These days we all get more powerful smartphones while battery capacity doesn't 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 isn't even aware of so he blames developer for not working app) this app worked with delay or didn't 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 it's 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.pro

User simply wants to download app and use it and he can't because device manufacturer stops app process after some time to save battery. Most users aren't aware of (additional) battery settings. On some devices they are available in different places so turning them off requires user engagement and it's faster to simply remove "not working app". Even after making all battery changes when it comes to some device manufacturers our app still didn't 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.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Best Chiming app ever..
4 ★Is it able to repeat every 30 minutes instead of 1 hour? I really need this feature. Or can I have two instances running simultaneously? I noticed blipblip has such feature.
5 ★Very good and nice app
4 ★This is a great little app for what it does. Have you ever wanted an hourly sound/chime sound? This app does it! Plus, you can have your phone announce the hour, etc. You can also set up chimes on the half hour, every 15 minutes, etc. And this app has very customizable settings to get everything working just the way you want. You can even have the announcements say whatever you want! Great on the Google Pixel that I have!
