Cal-Alarm: Never Miss Another Meeting
Cal-Alarm is the smart calendar alarm app that ensures you're always prepared for your upcoming events. Unlike traditional alarms, Cal-Alarm connects directly to your iCalendar and automatically sets intelligent alarms before every scheduled event.
KEY FEATURES
Smart Alarm System
Set how many minutes before an event you want the first alarm to ring. Cal-Alarm then calculates optimal repetition intervals, offering you multiple alarm options based on the time remaining. Choose to be reminded once, or set up multiple alarms that ring at calculated intervals leading up to your event.
Automatic Calendar Integration
Cal-Alarm seamlessly syncs with your existing calendar events. No manual entry required—just grant calendar access and the app does the rest. It automatically filters out past events and focuses on what's coming next.
Customizable Alarm Sounds
Choose from Apple's built-in clock alarm sounds, including Radar, Anticipate, Bloom, Calypso, and many more. Set a default sound for all alarms, or customize individual events with their own unique alarm sound.
Intelligent Repetition System
The app's smart algorithm calculates divisors of the time between your first alarm and the event start time. For example, if you set a 10-minute first alarm, you can choose to be reminded 2 times (at 10 min and 5 min before) or 5 times (at 10 min, 8 min, 6 min, 4 min, and 2 min before). The app always includes an alarm at the exact event time.
macOS Menu Bar App
On macOS, Cal-Alarm lives in your menu bar, showing the next event's name and time remaining at a glance. The display format intelligently adapts based on proximity: showing days for far-off events, hours for mid-range, and minutes for upcoming events. Click the menu bar icon to see all upcoming events and access settings.
Universal Apple Experience
Cal-Alarm works seamlessly across all your Apple devices—Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Thanks to CloudKit integration, your alarm settings sync automatically across all devices, so your preferences are always consistent.
Per-Event Customization
Override global settings for specific events. Set custom alarm times, repetition intervals, or sounds for important meetings, ensuring you're never caught off guard.
Smart Filtering
Cal-Alarm automatically filters out all-day events and past events, focusing only on the events that matter. The app continuously monitors your calendar for changes and updates alarms accordingly.
PERFECT FOR
• Busy professionals who need reliable meeting reminders
• Students managing class schedules and deadlines
• Anyone who wants to be prepared for upcoming events
• People who prefer multiple reminders over a single alarm
• Users who want calendar-based alarms instead of time-based ones
PRIVACY & SECURITY
Cal-Alarm respects your privacy. All calendar data is processed locally on your device. CloudKit sync only transfers your alarm settings and preferences—never your calendar events. The app requires calendar read access to function, which you can grant or revoke at any time in System Settings.
