Thread: Finding a good alarm

I've been searching for a while and I can't seem to find an alarm with the features I want. I'm looking for preferably an app for a smartphone that can automatically stop after a few seconds, can set multiple alarms to go off through the night, and is soft. I particularly have trouble with the first one, most alarms are made for getting you out of bed so usually they don't stop until you disable them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

android? apple?

To me a good alarm would be one that does not actually wake me up in the morning when I don't want to get up. Hear that, my iPhone? You are a bad alarm, bad alarm! When I say snooze, I actually mean, I want a time machine that could take me back a few hours, so that I can sleep some more in peace, ok?

that said, I have an app called Smart Alarm on my iPhone that you may want to check out. I don't know whether it will meet your needs, but it has a lot of options for sounds and music and such, and it also perceives your movements when you stir and will adjust wake up time accordingly. And it does have a feature where you set music or sound or white noise of your choice to lull you to sleep, and it goes off on its own.
