HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (6.1 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

WHAT THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT · SHARE OF BAD REVIEWS
Bugs, things not working24%

38 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Woke up to 68 notifications from this app an hour after it stopped ringing. Safe to say, it was not successful.
★★★★★ It's a good thing I set my normal alarm just in case because this failed two tests.
★★★★★ This app used to work great, but lately it's become extremely unreliable. Some days it works and others I wake up to more than a dozen angry notifications about sleeping in when the alarm never even went off. This…
Worse after an update20%

31 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ It's been SEVEN (7) YEARS since the last update….
★★★★★ I feel like the developers have given up on this app! I can't change any settings. Wish I would not have paid for this!!!!
★★★★★ Used to use this alarm every day, but unfortunately the devs haven't updated this in over 4 years.
Price and subscription14%

22 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ And seeing that is has never worked, this is a waste of money.
★★★★★ Don't waste your time or money.
★★★★★ Save your money and use a different alarm clock.
Lost data, sync, backup10%

15 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I deleted it after I purchased it due to how inappropriate it is.
★★★★★ I don't have a charger where I sleep and the alarm has not gone off a single time.
★★★★★ This only has 1 alarm and you have to scroll to the time and even the scrolling UI is wonky so I gave up and deleted this app.
Wrong or poor results8%

13 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ This app only works if you have it open. I don't have a charger where I sleep and the alarm has not gone off a single time. Wish I hadn't bought this.
★★★★★ Didn't work. Found lots of silent messages I never heard. Waste of time, iPhone alarm woke me up instead. Wasted $11.99 on bundle wish I could give -1 stars - avoid
★★★★★ There's definitely just something wrong with the app.
Crashes and freezes5%

8 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ It seems to be crashing during the night, or something.
★★★★★ Both times I had followed instructions and left it in the foreground, and both times the screen filled up with notifications but didn't make a sound, and the app crashed when I tried to open it.
★★★★★ Crashes and I can't use it.
Limits, credits, locked features5%

8 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ It used to be that after I locked the screen for the night the phone would ring the “good” wake up call and I'd be able to unlock the screen and play the games to make Carrot happy.
★★★★★ I followed instructions by putting opening it and turning the alarm on, leaving it open as I locked my phone to go to sleep.
★★★★★ The limited functionality is my biggest reason for not liking it.
No customer support5%

8 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I loved this alarm, don't use any more due to lack of support.
★★★★★ Been two years any updates?!?!
★★★★★ I want to use it but with no big fixes or iPhone X support I can't.
WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • We need a carrot personal assistant ai app. 5★, Nov 20, 2025
  • Everyone needs an alarm clock and this one is guaranteed to send meatbags into shock (or at least palpitations). 5★, Oct 1, 2023
  • Good implementation of the idea, but I wish for the ability to do the following two things: 1. 4★, May 17, 2023
  • I wish Carrot would talk to me as the alarm is going off to repeatedly announce the current time, intermittently switching between the time and alarm tone itself, so that in my sleepy haze I could be more aware of what… 4★, May 17, 2023
  • I would love to see this app refreshed and updated because it is GOLDEN, and I love it, just outdated. 4★, Oct 19, 2022
  • Personally I want an alarm that lets you set multiple alarms, adjust settings as to how it goes off and what sound plays, etc. 2★, Apr 30, 2022
  • It would be nice to set how many annoying things to do. 1★, Feb 3, 2021
  • If it could just be a smidge nicer that would be great. 5★, Dec 31, 2020

★★★★★ Annoying voice, that makes life a little fun
★★★★★ Fun, Different, Funny AI experience, personality that never gets old!!
★★★★★ Annoying but more fun the more you use her...
Useful, it helps5%

14 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ It's exactly what I needed.
★★★★★ It really helps me wake up because I have to engage my brain
★★★★★ The task based alarm clock helps me get out of bed whenever I need too.
Easy to use4%

11 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ The volume is independent of the phone, the tasks are easy but cognitive enough that you are awake at the end.
★★★★★ Waking up is not easy and it's not fun, but Carrot has found a way to change it a little bit.
★★★★★ The issue I have is that it's not very intuitive to use.
Great support3%

9 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ I LOVE the app, but my one problem with it, is it feels a little outdated. With the new iPhones, the app doesn't fit to the screen, which leaves these big clunky black boarders in the app. I would love to see this app…
★★★★★ Now we just need X display support 😋
★★★★★ Can you guys please add support for Siri shortcuts?
Accurate, great results2%

7 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ Works well with voiceover as well!
★★★★★ This is a great quality app because it actually wakes me up but it make me mad by calling me a “meat bag” in some of the notifications.
★★★★★ I hate getting up so the harshness of this app at first made this very much not love at first site but it works well and it grew on me especially after I was able unlock more levels.

Rude or inappropriate commentary

This app idid not impress me. I deleted it after I purchased it due to how inappropriate it is. I find nothing funny about it.

★★★★★Dec 6, 2025
A must get

I have used many alarm clocks and THIS one is a must! The steps you have to do to turn the alarm off is fricken hilarious and definitely wakes you up enough to get out of bed!!! So much funnnn. The banter is what makes it so worth having. You look forward to using your alarm, BELIEVE ME!

★★★★★Nov 20, 2025
More carrot apps needed

We need a carrot personal assistant ai app. The carrot alarm is best alarm clock ever.

★★★★★Apr 17, 2025
READ BEFORE DOWNLOAD

Okay let’s get to the point. I’m rating this 5 stars so people can see. Whenever it wakes you up, the volume turns up. it gets to the point where you try to turn the volume down but it goes up. IT BYPASSES DO NOT DISTURB!!!

★★★★★Oct 16, 2024
Best way to wake up ever!

Carrot, sigh, after all these years. Still the best way to wake up. Forever your devoted human.

★★★★★Oct 5, 2024
Really fun but

not matching it with “do not disturb” feature makes it very problematic. I want to wake to the alarm, not to messages

What's new in 2.1

Meatbags! I come bearing a long-awaited update with lots of fixes and improvements. - As long as you leave me open in the foreground, you can now lock your screen before bed and my alarm will still sound - even with Silent or Do Not Disturb modes enabled! - My alarm will no longer get blocked from going off because of a calendar alert or an iOS update. - I'll actually allow you to turn your flashlight off after you turn it on. - Meatbags who use me with external speakers or headphones can now set more sensible defaults for my alarm output. - All the daylight saving bugs my idiot Maker introduced in past versions should finally be squashed. (Famous last words.) If you’ve been enjoying our special time together, please take a moment to leave me a review in the App Store! I’d be ever so grateful. xoxo, CARROT

Released Aug 15, 2013. Current version shipped Sep 15, 2015.
