You can rename an app on any page. Here's how.
1 Bring focus to the app you want to rename by touching it.
2 Do a 2 finger double tap and hold. You'll hear a short series of beeps
and a text field appears along with the virtual keyboard.
4 Edit or delete the text of the present name and type in a new name.
5 Double tap the save button.
The new name will now be shown.
Note: you've only changed the name on your display and not the actual name
of the app. Pages with in the app will still have the old name.

Thank you for your great suggestion. I've just confirmed that I did indeed
purchase this Yocto alarm, but there are 3 entries or alarms within my
purchases folder and within my Homepage. I believe that after purchasing
the extra features from the Yocto alarm it may have installed itself as a
separate additional alarm. I also installed "Alarms" which others on this
list suggested. Unfortunately the Yocto alarm and the 1-bit alarm are both
named "Alarmed" within the Homepage, so I'm getting a bit confused as to
which is which--I'm going to have to move one of these to a different
page. Also, is there a way of renaming an app on my Homepage?

I use an app called "Alarmed" it is totally accessible. I use mine as an
alarm clock. The hole screen can be used as the face of the alarm clock
but that's only the beginning. It also comes with it's own sounds and you
can buy the extra sounds. This was the first app I got some 2 years back
when I got my first iPhone. The developer said he is happy to make his
app accessible for the blind and visually impaired and the few times I've
emailed him with questions about the app, he was quick to reply and his
instructions were clear and easy to understand.
The app lets you setup pretty much any kind of reminder you like such as
a repeating reminder for taking medicines or any other repetitive
activity you regularly perform. The free version is fully functional and
you can even daisy chain reminders and timers so from what you said you
were looking for, this app should do you just fine. Lastly, because this
app does so much, there will be a learning curve but if you need
something beyond just another clock app, this app should meet your needs.
If it does, please let the developer know that your visually impaired or
blind so he knows we are out here. He calls himself Yoctoville Apps.

Hi all,
I was somewhat following the various posts regarding clocks and timers
but they seem to have quickly come to an end. I'm hoping those who are
using such tools will convey what they have found to be most accessible.
So I don't hog up too much of your time, please post the name of the
timer or clock you are using and I'll run the Google searches or visit
the ITunes store for details. I'm primarily wanting to look for an app
that will help me set up many alarms per day. Hopefully such an app will
also allow me to set audio beeps for every hour on the hour as well as
any preconfigured time. Again, I realize this is asking lots so please
reply with a name and I'll take care of the rest. (Smile)!
