View Full Version : Maximising income..

Just found this app called Alarmed that lets you set multiple reminders to go off after various times. I think it's really useful for reminding me to collect money from buildings as soon as it pops up which maximises income and reduces the chance of getting raided. It's also free!
Just thought I'd share it with everyone :)

That's what the "1 hour" timer is for ;)

Looks interesting Hass;
Might get that but can't it all be done with the iphone/ipod clock app?

Well i had a look but as far as i can tell, the timer function can only do one countdown at a time and the reminder function only does certain days + times. So it's a lot simpler to set this up, as soon as you've collected the building you just go to the app and start the timer and youll get a notification when it's done.

Someone correct me if i'm wrong.

Let me know if it helps, so far it's keeping me up to date with crates and if i get anywhere near 10 without spending gold then i'll know it's helped.

Yeah that's what mine is doing. Alternatively you can have an alarm go off too.

Make sure you're using the "Timers" function (like in my screenshot) and not the reminders.

Nice dude I'll have to check it out, I use an app called Timer++ but this one looks better. Do you know if the timers automatically reset once they reach 0? That'd be pretty awesome.

The thing with this is that most peoples 24 and 48 hour buildings aren't in sync.

I don't get why you're having problems haha.

Without changing any settings, with my phone on silent i open up the app, click on Timers, click +, enter a name and time length, melody is set to "Default (Timer 2)" and Nag-Me is turned off.

Then it just works.
If you're having problems after trying those steps i guess you need to experiment with the settings.
