Hi Robin, If you just want to set an Alarm there really is no need to get any extra app. Yes, there are probably hundreds of Alarm apps out there, but the alarm function that is part of the Clock app in iOS works perfectly fine.
1. Open the Clock app 2. Double tap the Alarm tab (second from the left across the bottom) 3. Double tap "Add" at the top right of the screen 4. Swipe right until you come to the hour picker control, swipe up or down with one finger to set it to the hour you want (it always displays the time when you opened the Clock). Swipe right again and adjust the minutes in the same way. Lastly, swipe right again and specify AM or PM. 5. Swipe right and double tap "Repeat, Never" if you want to repat the alarm on certain days, you have a list of each day of the week, if you want, for example, the same alarm from Monday to Friday, double tap on those days to select them, then tap on Back at the top left to go bac to the main Alarm screen. 6. Label: Alarm - here you can give your alarm a different name/label. 7. Sound - here you can pick from the available alarm sounds or you can pick a song from your music library. 8. Snooze: this is on by default, turn it off if you don't want the snooze function to repeate the alarm. 9. When you are done double tap "Save" at the top right of the screen and that's it. It's simple and straight forward, if you are happy with no repeat, snooze and the default sound all you have to do is set the time and tap Save. Any alarms you create will stay in your list of available alarms, if they are not repeating they go off at the specified time and then are turned off, but you can just double tap on any alarm and turn it back on if you want to use it again. This way if you have certain time when you get up, for example, 6 AM, 6:30 AM, 7 AM, 7:30 AM, 8 AM etc. you could create an alarm for each of these times and then all you have to do is pull up the Clock app, Alarm will stay selected unless you change it and then double tap on the alarm you want to turn it on, then press Home to get back to your home screen. If you have an active alarm it will say "Alarm Set" in the status bar, unfortunately Apple does not include the time there which I think would be a good idea. If you want to Edit or delete an existing alarm, maybe change the time or the sound it uses, just double tap on "Edit at the top left of the screen, then you have a Delete switch next to each alarm, double tap it to turn it on, then double tap again to delete. To Edit double tap on the alarm itself and the same screen opens as when you set up a new alarm and you can make changes, then Save it.

Is it pretty easy to set an alarm clock (for waking up) or do you recommend a particular app? Staying at a hotel this week and I've never set an alarm on my phone.
