PS: Let me know when you've addes text in your Fastlane tree wink (hint: it currently has screenshots only – no short-desc, full-desc, featureGraphic etc).

Oh damn, silly me.
I've been running git add . in the directory of the screenshots instead of the project's root folder, added now!

Fastlane: config updated here. 💩 happens 🤣

Holidays: would be really nice to have! I really wonder why not all alarm apps have that one way or the other. It's hopefully not too hard to figure and implement. Looking forward to that!

Btw, you didn't write what "sound sources" are considered by your alarm clock. Hope it's not just the "alarm sounds" of the device, but allows e.g. to pick a specific or random MP§ from the local collection as well. The only thing clear is it won't play any internet radio (no network permission). But maybe one could have start it a specific app as well? Thinking of the FM radio available with some devices. Though those usually need an antenna (which then is substituted by the cable of the headphones – which doesn't make much sense at bed time).

And if you like some crazy ideas (looking at the permissions requested to make sure none of them needs an extra one):

• snooze 1st time (max 5min) by just tap "snooze"
• snooze 2nd time: tap snooze exactly when it flashes (flash it max 5 times for 1s each)
• snooze 3rd time: same, but button moves around the screen
• snooze 4th time (you don't dare, do you?): like 3rd, but button now flashes a rhythm you need to repeat, turning up the volume each time
• snooze 5th time: hahaha, bet now you're awake anyway (or have the alarm turned off entirely)

Speaking of which: optionally, have turning off the alarm follow a similar pattern: once you hit the "off" button, it shows two new buttons in different position asking "are you sure" (one "yes", one "no"; play with colors and visibility; e.g. if "yes" was blue and "no" was red the first night, next night they have the colors reversed – or the question phrased opposite, like "keep it on") 🙈

To not drive folks nuts, name the entire schema "crazy mode" or something, and make it optional.

More funny ideas: if it can make use of the light sensor, ask the sleeper to send a morse "s" via the bed light to snooze, etc. 🤣

Thanks! Will be there with the next sync.

And if you're looking for some nice feature 99% of all alarm clocks are missing: integrate a holiday calendar by allowing to add one or more *.ics to be fed locally (so you don't need to add INTERNET) plus maybe a possibility to add personal dates directly (for those who'd otherwise struggle with the ICS format) – et voila! That ugly "get-to-work" alert wakes you up each work day only, skipping that Easter-Friday and Easter-Monday (to pick something just currently running) to let you sleep in.

I really wonder why almost all clock apps lack this feature. And yours would be outstanding then as the only FOSS one having it (I just know about a single clock app having that feature, and that's not FOSS but even added trackers with its newer versions).

Great, thank you!

Oh well, that sounds very interesting. I'm not yet familiar with the ics format, but it sounds like quite a nice addition. I'll let you know when I've added support for it (if it's doable), but don't expect me to be too fast 😂

Currently, there's no such option for customizing the alarm sound due to the early state of the app (it has basically been built in a single day). But of course, that's one of the next things that's going to be added!

Yeah, I can't really come up with any app that could be started by an alarm. Most apps that intend to do something similar have it in-built themselves probably.

Sounds like a funny idea, indeed! I really like enabling such things for all users the first april 😂

It'd actually be very interesting how an app can interact with the light sensor without additional permissions, but that will probably nothing I'd consider adding an additional permission for 😂

Yes, yes, totally clear – and glad you like my funny ideas! I was just collecting them to keep you on it 😄

Yeah, I can't really come up with any app that could be started by an alarm.

Any internet radio app? Any app that can play a stream – pre-configured or passed along? Any music app with its playlist? Any app that could forward your request to the coffee machine, so the smell of fresh coffee gets you out of bed? That's just what comes to mind immediately. Like with Tasker, advanced users could even set up their own "intent calls".

Hehe, yes, that sounds like it, too 🤣

That was the idea. And I'd not be surprised if that wouldn't need any special permission at all. After all, auto-brightness makes use of it, too. For starters, how about this (taken from a quick search)?
