Mostly, the app is very, very useful. I don't know why all calendar apps don't have an enhanced "snooze" feature like this app provides. The one important thing missing, IMO, is that when I create a new calendar event that will occur within the one day that I set as the event's default reminder, this app fails to remind me at all, so I must open this app, chase the new entry, and edit the notification time to ensure that it reminds me.

First impressions are good, but I've noticed a couple that seem like they might be an issue. First - when I go into 'Future Alarms' it shows events that I have marked as 'Not Attending'. Im assuming that means this is going to go off then. Second - it does not seem like the app has multi-account support? Only notifications from calendars on the first account on my list are showing up in 'Future Alarms'. This might be resolved by upgrading to pro?

Concerned about the 3.8 stars for this and other calendar alarm apps; but also, the other apps had whys and wherefores about having to turn off notifications in Google Calendar in order to work or actually being linked to Google Tasks (I don't use Tasks even though it looks synced with Calendar). As soon as it opened it prompted for access to Calendar and started working. Period. No extra setup, just set notifications in Calendar as normal and you get a persistent ringing alarm with *negative* snooze (e.g. Calendar will show "-4 minutes" for the reminder after snoozing 4 minutes past the start time) that's borderline *too* persistent. Will put it to the test with real appointments and might pay for the pro version, more out of appreciation than need for extra features.
