Reminder Windows

Alarm++ reminds you with event windows that don’t take focus away from what you’re doing. Most alarm applications rudely steal focus from the application you’re using. This often means you accidentally dismiss the reminder, leaving you wondering what it was for. Alarm++ displays polite reminders, not rude ones. Dismiss them or snooze them (for a few minutes, hours, or days) whenever it’s convenient.

Play Audio/Video Media

Events play any media you’ve got: MP3s, video, etc.—wake up to your favorite track, favorite movie, or favorite sound clip from South Park.

Repeating Events

Events repeat at many different intervals: every few minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years. Set alarms for every third Tuesday, Friday the 13^th, the second workday of the month, the last Monday of every third month, and more…

Events repeat as many times as you want: once, twice, … forever, or until a specific date.

Customize Events

Restrict events to certain hours of the day, weekdays, weeks of the month, months of the year, only on workdays, or only on non-workdays.

Schedule Tasks

Start applications or scripts, open Web sites, open files, anything you can do with a Windows shortcut. Make backups every night, download your stock information every week, visit your favorite Web sites every morning, and more…

If you have advanced needs, you can use Windows Scripting to make Alarm++ do almost anything when an event goes off. The Alarm++ installation includes some sample scripts and batch files that you can modify for your own use.

Send E-Mail

Alarms send e-mail reminders to any e-mail address: your cell phone, someone’s pager, your spouse, your department, etc. (You can use a Web service that routes an e-mail to a cell phone as a text message via SMS.)

Shareware—Try Before You Buy

Alarm++ is shareware so you can try it for FREE before you register.

Alarm++ allows you to use ALL of its features: all types of repeat intervals, templates, e-mail, applications, and more. The only limitation is the number of alarms that can be active. You can create an unlimited number of alarms after you purchase a license.

Robust

Alarm++ saves your changes automatically—you’ll never lose your alarms if Windows crashes.
