Review: BB Smart Alarms Pro - PinStack.com

**lucky13mt** · 03:37 PM

First of all I would like to congratulate BBSmart for a job very well done.

I have been using MyAlarm for quite some time now, and that was originally my #1 alarm application, but this one definitely won me over.

The icon of the application itself is an interactive clock that has different face colors when an alarm is activated or not.

When first starting the application you are informed that you have not set any alarms and it gives you the option of setting a "Regular Alarm" or a "Quick Alarm."

This is a very nice touch helping first time users set up their first alarm without looking through the app first.

The menus and options are clearly visible, making setting up the alarm quick and easy.

You can give each alarm its own title, and create many alarms with different select days, times, and alarm ringtones.

Set up recurring alarms for your work days, exercising sessions, etc. The day-of-the-week selection is simple with a click on click off function.

You can select an alarm ringtone from your music saved on your SDCard also! Or use the preloaded ringtones provided by the application: Electric Piano, Guitar Riff, Drum Beat, or Disco.

With this application, you do not have to worry about selecting a "Save" option to save your alarm, it does it for you! Also, if you accidentally hit the back key, it saves the alarm and its settings automatically, unless it is left at the default alarm setting.

You have a choice of snooze length from 1, 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes.

Change the amount of times the ringtone repeats and the volume settings.

You can also change the default alarm settings for the "Regular Alarm" or "Quick Alarm" to whatever you like.

The "Quick Alarm" is very handy for those on the run alerts you need to set up. Set up a basic "Quick Alarm" in a matter of 2 seconds.

Change your alarm settings to continuously vibrate when your alarm goes off or silence the alarm automatically when "unholstering" your BB.

The pop-up screen for your alarm alert is very clean and clearly visible, even if you are still half asleep, and the snooze function counts down to when the alarm will go off again.

While in the alarms list, you can see the current status of an alarm. Purple=Snoozed, Red=Off, and Green=on.

Buying a new BB? Not to worry, this application is transferable.

All in all I give this application a 10/10 and definitely worth the $15.00.

10 day free download and trial available.

Good job BBSmart!

I bought the app. I used it for one minute tested the alarm and holy cow, I went online and paid $15. The sound was distinct and got my attention. This is one heck of a program and easy to use. It's worth trying. You can down load and get a 10 day trial. Ohhh boy I got a new toy....

Hi All,

Thanks for the kind comments! We're already hard at work taking in all the feedback we've received since this first release and working on the next version, so if you have any ideas please do feel free to throw them my way! We try to be very receptive to the feedback of BlackBerry pro's that hang out on sites like Pinstack, so there's a good chance if you suggest a feature that rocks you'll see it in the next release (which will be free by the way - we don't believe in paid upgrades)

Great review too lucky13mt, and not just because we got a high score

It was very thorough and you picked up on quite a few bits of functionality we threw in there that are not immediately obvious - you must have given the app. a good thrashing!

Cheers,
Neil.
