Cradle Software CradleAlarm v4.0 (En Alarm PPC)

Requirements: XScale.WM5.WM6
Overview: enAlarmPPC is now CradleAlarm!



The build in alarm clock of Windows Mobile lacks in functionality
and usability.
That is where CradleAlarm 4.0 comes in. With this program you can
set multiple alarms in your device. Four different alarm types
exist:
Compact alarmThis is a simple alarm which is also known from the
previous versions called enAlarmPPC. Only some basic options can
be set using this alarm. That is why this alarm is recommended
for adding a simple alarm quickly. Using this type it is possible
to add once-only and recurring alarms at selected weekdays.
Because of the compact layout you probably need to use the styles
to set the settings for this type.

Wizard alarmThis alarm type is a normal alarm, like the
compact alarm, but features many more configuration options. The
different settings are entered using a step-by-step wizard.

Appointment alarmThe settings for this alarm type are very
similar to the settings of the wizard alarm. This alarm type, in
addition to the alarm time, will also have an alarm date. The
alarm starts at a specified time at a specified date and will be
automatically deleted after the alarm has started.

Command alarmThis alarm runs at the specified time a stated
program or opens a stated document.

Every single alarm can be configured independently. Every alarm
(except the command alarms) has its own playlist of MP3, WAVE,
Windows Media or Midi files. Furthermore the appearance of the
alarm can be configured by selecting different colors or
background images.
Compact and wizard alarms can be configured to start only once,
daily or on different weekdays.
Particularly the snooze function of the build in alarm is
extremely poor. The innovative snooze function of CradleAlarm
helps late risers to get up on time. To activate the snooze
during an alarm the user can tap on any spot of the screen. If
the snooze function is used too often, a quiz starts. To activate
the snooze again, the user has to solve some sort of task. This
will avoid that the snooze will be unintentionally hit too often.
With every new task the challenge gets harder and the user has to
think more. That way the brain needs to, at least for short, work
actively and so the wake up process is initiated.
The current version of CradleAlarm offers three different types
of quizzes:
Math: During this quiz the user has to solve a simple math
calculation before he can activate the snooze again. With every
try the problem gets harder.
Memory: Six pairs of cards are shown to the user upside down.
He has to find the pairs by turning around two cards after
another. During the first snooze try the user has to find one
pair only (all other cards are already turned around). The next
try he has to find two pairs, etc.
Repeat: A sequence of numbers is shown to the user one after
another. Afterwards he has to repeat the sequence in the same
order. Until he repeats the sequence correctly the snooze will
not start again. With every try to sequence he has to remember
gets longer.
All snooze options can be set individually for every alarm.
Further it was considered that the sound files are faded in when
played. That way the user will not affright if a loud starting
sound is played.
This version now also features a today screen plugin. Thereby it
is possible to look over all configured alarms, edit them, see
when the next alarm will go off and start CradleAlarm directly
from the devices main screen.
To not start all over again with all the preferred settings for
every new alarm, all settings can be saved as a template. For the
next alarm, just select the template, perhaps enter a new time
and hit OK. Three nice looking templates are already installed
with the program. You can even download and import more templates
from the download area of CradleAlarm.

Many more useful functions are offered by the program.

After the installation the following languages are already
included: English, German, French, Spanish and Turkish
You can even translate the whole program yourself or download
more languages from the download area.
