Klaxon (20080926) – Accelerometer and Light Sensor enabled Alarm

by Saijo George on September 29, 2008

in Uncategorized


Klaxon is an alarm clock, with added specific functionality. It supports multiple alarms with snoozing. What makes this application special though is the ability to interact with the application, through motion or light. The user has the options to shake the phone, flip it over or turn it towards light; Klaxon has integrated feature for customization of interactivity. Users are able to associate commands (snooze, turn off) to gestures while the device feeds back by default after successful command (vibrate once for Snooze mode, vibrate twice if alarm is turned off).

Example: Wake up alarm at 6:00 AM > Flip over to snooze 10 minutes > Snooze alarm at 6:10 AM > Shake to turn alarm off!

Updates:
* Added options to disable each sensor action while snoozed. For example, if your Flip action snoozes your phone, and you don’t want to let it resnooze while snoozing (by just picking up your phone in some cases), check this box!
* Added the ability to select a Windows Media Player playlist. You can find playlists in your \Playlists or \Internal Storage\Playlists folders. You can use Windows Media Player on your desktop to create and sync playlists.
* When you snooze your device, the screen is automatically turned off to save power.
* The default sound file is now \Windows\Alarm5.wav. It is not configurable in the UI yet, but you can configure it manually setting the \HKCU\Software\Klaxon\DefaultSoundFile value in the registry. (It does not exist by default, but Klaxon will use it if it is there.)

If you find this tool useful, please donate to the developer.

I’ve been looking for a good alarm for my HTC but this one is not working as I expected it.

It didn’t go when it should have.

This might not work well on devices without the accelerometer, you might also want to try : http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2008/09/16/g-alarm-03-an-alarm-where-you-cant-hit-snooze-and-go-back-to-sleep-easily.html
