Alarmii is a little alarm utility for Wii. It is a timer/alarm clock.

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 this folder to your SD card inside the "apps" folder, and run with The HomeBrew Channel.

If you want to use custom sound samples, use ".raw" format, 8000 Hz, 8 bit signed, mono - try "WavePad" to convert .wav files (etc).

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).

  • A........increase number.
  • B........decrease number.
  • Home.....exit program.

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.

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.
