Alarmii is a simple alarm application for the Wii. It allows users to set a timer or alarm, and will alert the user when the time is up.

Features

Alarm clock.
Countdown timer.
Interval alerts.
Customizable sound samples (keep them small as SD card loading is a little slow).
Audio and Visual alerts.
And more.

Installation

Copy the Alarmii folder to the apps directory on your SD card and launch it through the Homebrew Channel.

To customize the alarm sound, use ".raw" files with a 8000 Hz, 8-bit, mono format.

You can use a program like WavePad to convert .wav files (remember to keep them small, unless you can wait for the Wii's SD to load).

User guide

Use any Wiimote to adjust the numbers (you will individually adjust hours, minutes, or seconds, they will not effect each other).

Click on the alarm button to enable/disable.

Whichever number you click on will be the active mode ("set" or "remain") until you enable the alarm.

Settings/adjustments will be saved automatically when you exit the program.

Controls

A/B - Increase/Decease number

Home - exit program.

Changelog

v1.0

Added: auto-load/save settings to SD card (now you don't have to setup every time).
Added: load sound files from SD card (allowing for custom sound effects - hence, no card = no sound).
Added: visual cues at interval and alarm.
Bug fix: disabled potential rumble on exit screen.

v0.8 (alpha)

Not really a bug, but adjusting the 'numbers' independantly can be confusing.
This needs to be more intuitive - However, it really is quite logical.
PAL50 mode is not vertically centered accordingly (but things all fit of course.
