Archival & Preservation Page — Read Before Downloading

I am not Gil Bouhnick, and I did not develop this application. I acquired the spoontools.com domain later and am publishing this page as a preservation archive for the original freeware tools. All credit belongs to Gil Bouhnick.

What It Was

A replacement alarm clock for Windows Mobile that combined a simple, finger-friendly interface with loud MP3-based alarms. You could pick a favourite MP3 as your wake-up sound, configure snooze, and use pre-set alarm times. It was explicitly designed to work without a stylus and to replace the default Windows Mobile alarm functionality, which many users found unreliable or limited.

Modern Alternatives

There is no reason to run a 2008 alarm app on a device you depend on.

  • Built-in alarm (iOS / Android) — Every modern smartphone has a reliable built-in alarm. Start here.
  • Sleep Cycle (iOS/Android) — Smart alarm that tracks sleep phases and wakes you at the right moment.
  • Alarmy (iOS/Android) — Loud, customizable wake-up experiences with missions to make sure you're fully awake.
