Where Simple Alarm Clock is better
- Speed. Typing the time on a keypad is the quickest way to set an alarm.
- Simplicity. Nothing to learn and nothing to share; it just rings.
- No accidental turn-off. An optional three-button dismiss.
- Track record. Over 50 million downloads and more than half a million reviews.
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 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 Simple Alarm Clock if you are on Android and want the plainest possible alarm for yourself.
- Choose LFG Alarm if you want to wake up with other people, are on iPhone, or want alarms for things that happen at no fixed time.
