Ratings and Reviews
Still a few bugs to iron out
I bought this and then a couple of other similar apps. Anchor Sentry is easy to use, however the low volume message & the actual low volume & inability to select the alarm sound was a disappointment.
Developer Response ,
The volume of the alarm sound is controlled by the settings of your device. There is no way this kind of app can adjust the sound by itself.
