I've accidentally turned off my alarm too many times because I couldn't distinguish between the snooze and dismiss. I wear glasses as that small text that every alarm app has doesn't cut it. This is what I needed. Only reason I have it 4 stars is that you can't program different alarms. For example, I have always set alarms for weekday and weekend. Can't do that with this. Hope they add that.

Sorry, but there are no plans for that. Our goal was to simplify the alarm as much as possible to make it usable even for seniors and visually impaired people. Adding features would destroy this simplicity, which is not what we (and most of the users) want.

Larger than most alarms for the visually impaired, but it would really be amazing if the 'snooze' and 'off' bars were different colors, such as red for off/stop. Can't read without glasses, but I sure can see color.

Simple and minimal ads. I agree, that it's hard to tell when it's armed without glasses. Perhaps a color change on the numbers when alarm is on or off. Also pm/am needs to be bigger... All for us visually impaired.
