The most poetic and the most prestigious watch-making complication is on your IPhone. Besides to ring automatically at the hours and quarters of an hour it allows, on request, to listen to the exact time at any moment. Invented in 1750 by T. Mudge, it is very difficult to incorporate into a mechanical watch, because requiring up to 100 different components.\Its first purpose was to "ring" the hour in the dark ; And by extension allow the visually handicapped people "to hear" the time. Today only the most prestigious manufacturers still make these watches (Plan around 200 000 Euros).
My experience
It has the function of a minute repeater. I like it
Doesn’t work
Old app not updated. Doesn’t work at all.
Buggy; can’t turn it off
Turned on grand sonnerie function. That worked fine, but when I attempted to turn it off, I got an error message saying I had reached my iPhone’s limit for number of alarms and to please delete an alarm in settings. I only had four alarms in settings, and I was trying to remove, not add, the grand sonnerie “alarm”/function, but I indulged the error message and pared down my alarms. The app still would not let me turn off the grand sonnerie function. This app is not better than nothing. It alters your alarm function, then cannot be turned off. I believe the developer should withdraw this app, Apple should consider removing it.
Doesn't work
Very misleading, does not automatically chime. You have to manually. What's the point? Waste of money.
