Hmm... I believe Shortcuts could be leverage to do the same? The only thing I'm not sure of is whether Shortcuts can pull the event time and use that to set the timer.
The 35 EUR/year price tag to get the interesting features is too hefty for me. I’ll be waiting for alternatives.
(I gladly give 5 EUR/year to get the premium version of parcelapp.net – I can’t justify paying 7 times more for a tool that hasn’t yet replaced my manual processes!)
Fantastic! I use alarms to run my entire life. I've been wanting to build something with the alarms for so long. So happy to learn that AlarmKit now exists. Thanks!
Why is an application that requires absolutely no servers to be run priced with a monthly cost? For the sake of our combined future and sanity I hope this trend dies, together every application that does this.
What I need is to be able to blacklist alarms on a calendar. If I have that day marked as a holiday, I don't want my alarms going off. If I turn them off for the three day weekend, I inevitably forget to turn them back on for Tuesday. I have a calendar that has all these days marked, but no way to do this in a convenient manner. Can your stuff do this?
I have done exactly this through Shortcuts. Basically, if I want to skip the alarm for a specific date, I just create an all-day event on Calendar and the automation takes in every midnights to check for these events and disabled the alarm. And also, do the reverse on the opposite.
If you have holidays in a specific calendar you can exclude that calendar from the showing up in the agenda at all through the setting tab > select calendars.
The app looks good and i like the idea of not ignorable fullscreen reminders but a 35€/year subscription is too much for me…
Just to mention it, there is a macOS app called Dato which can do the same (fullscreen notifications) but on mac. https://sindresorhus.com/dato
Lots of comments on the pricing, which I figured was pretty agressive. Will be dropping it down to $15/year

Edited: Just checked, seem possible.
I actually used a shortcut to do this very task for years. Once I saw that iOS 26 was introducing alarmKit I started working on this. Here's the link to my old shortcut: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/6371054286bd4b6688ad89fbe5a...

Wow I’ve wanted this for so long and it was impossible to do previously. At $30/yr and $8/mo I’ll write my own app though.

your pricing is nuts. let me know if revenue are good, I'll copy you.
Not yet on iOS 26, but will try this out soon!
