That's an interesting idea. I've added it to the Trello board of ideas I'm considering for recurring alarms and appreciate your suggestion.

Hey sorry for responding so late. Thanks for sharing those libraries, I'll take a look at both. The one i used before was actually quite tough to find and I remember it wasn't a very popular one. I have a release notes list now im

If I understand correctly though, I think that suggestion would defeat the purpose of the stroop test that this method is using to trick people, cause the whole idea is that the word ocean is supposed to mislead you and the color of the tex

I only ever tested the parallax library on a very early build of the app which consumed far less ram overall just cause the app wasn't finished yet, so it's hard to give an exact amount. If ever I did any serious animation work an

I'm considering a few options to give more freedom with the alarm (such as repeating and multiple alarms), but I'm working on making sure they integrate with the overall design and concept before jumping the gun.

I've removed the flashing circles in the next build cause I 100% agree and I'd like to clarify that I don't have any intention of pivoting with Nebula cause I really like keeping things simple too. I was just joking around up

I've looked in to the question and I've changed it so that even the MobileAds SDK is only initialized if premium is not active when the application is first created. This way, if premium is enabled, AdMob is not touched in any way

I agree that sleep is a complicated thing and that bedtime routines are vital to overall healthy sleep habits. I think you're right and that reinforcing good sleep scheduling is the next step with the app in terms of big features

Thank you, the template I used had these nice phone graphics and I thought they were just generic phones because I wasn't paying attention. Going to fix that now.

I did do it by myself and I really appreciate you saying that. I used/modified a few icons and pictures that I found online though and their awesome creators (who released them under attribution licenses) are credited in the graphics c

Thanks so much really appreciate your support! I experimented with an ios style parallax effect on the background stars but found that the library really used a lot of memory so I removed it for the time being. It looked super cool though s

Hey really sorry about that, there are a variety of dismissal methods you can choose from including shake dismissal, qr scan, barcode scan and a simple stop button as well as this color tap. That dismissal method is just the one I went with
