# LFG Alarm vs Alarm Clock HD

Comparisons · https://lfg.gm/lfg-alarm-vs-alarm-clock-hd · Updated 2026-10-24

Alarm Clock HD and LFG Alarm are both iPhone alarm apps, built for different jobs. Alarm Clock HD, by Impala Studios, is a nightstand clock that wakes you with music, with weather, a sleep timer and an Apple Watch app. LFG Alarm is a social alarm clock: one alarm that rings you and your friends, for a time or for a moment online. We make LFG Alarm, and this comparison is meant to be fair.

## Where Alarm Clock HD is better

- **A clock by the bed.** It turns your phone into a nightstand clock, with colours, a flip clock and a screen saver for OLED screens.
- **Bedtime extras.** A sleep timer for music, local weather and a shake-to-light flashlight.
- **Apple Watch.** An app and a complication on the watch.
- **Track record.** More than 100,000 ratings on the App Store.

## Where LFG Alarm is better

- **Waking more than one person.** One alarm, one link, and every phone that joined rings at the same moment: your partner before the 3pm pickup, flatmates on the same 7:00, a whole group before a party.
- **Friends who can see if you got up.** The [wake board](https://lfg.gm/wiki/wake-board) shows who got up first, who snoozed and who slept in.
- **Moments without a set time.** Rocco, LFG's agent, watches the web and rings you when an account posts, a stream goes live, a token hits your number, or your own script calls the alarm's link.
- **Every phone and the browser.** iPhone, Android and the web, so a shared alarm works whatever phone your people have.

## Which one should you get?

- Choose **Alarm Clock HD** if you want your iPhone on the nightstand as a clock that wakes you with music.
- Choose **LFG Alarm** if you want to wake up with other people, someone in your life is on Android, or you want alarms for things that happen at no fixed time.

## Questions

### Can Alarm Clock HD ring my friends' phones?
Not that we could find in its listing. In LFG Alarm, one link rings every phone that joined.

### Do both ring through silent mode on iPhone?
LFG Alarm's time and event alarms use Apple's own alarm system and ring through silent mode and Focus. Check Alarm Clock HD's listing for how it handles silent mode.
