i had a progressive wake-up alarm clock which i paid about $85 for and loved dearly for about 10 years- but alas, it stopped working. the idea is brilliant- why be jarred awake when you can be gently coaxed there, with a fool-proof loud sound at the end just in case- and while i preferred the gradually progressive nature sounds that came with my actual clock, this app basically has the same effect, and the sound of the bells is well done. i also love the options for choosing different progressions. bottom line, this is hands-down the best way to wake up in the morning, and for 99 cents its an absolute steal. only gripe is that the app has to be open and running in the background and manually started every time you want to use it- would be great if they could integrate a way to make it recur on set days, or set it in advance for a certain date. either way, still well worth using.
