SpoonAlarm Improvements - I'm Collecting Requests
Hi all,
I've been receiving a lot of requests for improvements in the SpoonAlarm.
I will collect the relevant ones and start working on a new version soon.
Here's some of the things I received so far...
Don't expect it to be in the coming days (as my spare time is really limited these days) - but I will keep you all posted.

In the meantime, if you have any additional feedback - feel free to comment or drop me an email.

A few bundled alarm tracks would be great!
also it would be good to see all spoon alarms in some list, to be cancel-able, not just the next one.
Altough v2.1 is working fine, it doesn't listen to the config of the snooze time. By default its 5 minutes.
Doesn't matter if i put it on 10, 30 or 60 minutes.
PS: can you snooze it also when i move my phone? the HD has an acceleration sensor (g-sensor they call it i think)
did you already know your domain 'spoontools.com' is not working.
I get a godaddy.com page. As if the domain is free to register.
It's just that the last few months were extremely busy, so I didn't have time to touch it.
Thanks for the good feedback, I will release a minor release with the volume fix soon.
Furthermore, I'm using the notifications option (on) so that it runs even though my screen is turned off. I always get two notifications for each alarm - a bit annoying.
Feature requests:
1. Allow the user to set the alarm volume. One option would be to start out soft, then get louder.
2. Allow different mp3 files to be set for the countdown and the regular alarm. I did not have many mp3s (all wma or wav files), so I rounded up some good bell mp3 files if you need them.
3. Option to exit out entirely. There is only a minimize button.
Great program - very simple, easy to use. Too many alarm programs are overkill. This is just right!
Howvever there are a few glitches that I found:
1.You can hear that there are two songs playing (both the song that i chose as the alarm sound) when the alarm is sounding. I can stop one of them if I click snooze once which solves the problem but I was hoping that problem could be fixed so I wouldn't have to do that.
2.Sometimes when spoon alarm is open (I minimize it after setting an alarm) and I use other applications as well, my phone freezes up and that way the alarm of course can not be ringed. I have to soft reset my phone in order to get it working again. I'm not sure if this is a problem with the alarm or a problem with my phone because this only started happening after I started using spoon alarm. I was wondering if you could try to lower the memory used when using spoon alarm.
The programs I used were:
1.internet explorer, memory used : 856k
2.palringo, memory used: 756k
3. spoon alarm, memory used: 1.48M
3. When the color option is changed it doesn't stay that way the next time I use it again. This is a small glitch that I don't really mind so you don't have to worry about it as much I guess?
I also have a question, do we have to keep spoon alarm open in order for the alarm to sound? Is that why you can't close the program completely?
Nonetheless I still love spoon alarm so I'll still try using it even with the glitches. Being able to use a video as an alarm sound was really surprising so keep up the good work! ;]
Please and thank you :D
With HTC HD2 it's difficult to push the buttons UP and DOWN (when i set the time) because they are to small.
On HD2 there isn't a pen ... and with fingers is difficult.
UP and DOWN arrows larger please.
Thank you
