Rise App Updated With Alarm Control Center Enhancements And Other Tweaks
January 2, 2014
Just a few days after its last update, the popular Rise Alarm Clock has received another one.
This past weekend, Rise was updated for iOS 7 with a slight design refresh and improved compatibility with the operating system. At the same time, it was updated with a much-requested feature in the form of multiple alarm support.
Available via a $0.99 in-app purchase, Rise's multiple alarm support lets you set custom alarms, each with its own label and repetition configuration. All alarms can be managed in the app's new alarm control center.
And with the latest update to Rise, the alarm control center has been improved to enable you to reorder alarms using drag-and-drop. This action is initiated by long-pressing the sides of alarms in the list, as opposed to long-pressing the center of the same, which lets you edit alarms instead.
