WakeWorker

Setting up alarms might seem like a redundant task, but if you’re having trouble remembering specific activities or events you need to attend to, a simple alarm can save the day. As such, WakeWorker comes with the means to help you set up a one-time alarm, or have it repeat every day.

As far as the visual design is concerned, the operation window is fitted with a clean layout, a compact main window, and intuitive overall arrangement of options. When configured, the application can quietly sit in the tray area and only show up when the clock strikes. It can be made to run with Windows, which is important to have around on recurring alarms.

Setting up an alarm is an easy task and only requires you to specify the exact hour for the notification to show up. Pay attention to the default date, because it might leave you wondering why alarms instantly trigger when saved.

It’s also a good idea to pay a visit to the settings panel first. Here is where the app can be made to run with Windows, have volume automatically switched to maximum so you can hear the alert, and thoroughly specify recurrence period. The application can either use a default chime, but you can also load a custom song and set it to repeat until action is taken.

When an alert is triggered, a popup window shows up on screen, with the possibility to hit snooze if enabled. Sadly, you can’t set a custom message to appear. What’s more, the application can only create one alarm, and running multiple instances isn’t a valid operation to bypass this issue.

WakeWorker comes with only one alarm slot, but the corresponding set of options make it live up to expectations. You can add a custom song to play, and even boost the volume to maximum so you’re sure to hear the notification.
