Are you a college student like me who has a different schedule every day?

While I’m usually pretty good about setting my alarm clock for the right time, it doesn’t hurt to have a backup plan.  I have come across a nice piece of software every student Mac owner should have.

Aurora is an alarm clock that runs on your Mac. It even integrates with iTunes on your Mac. You can set an alarm that goes off at a different time for every day if you want.

Want to sleep in on the weekend, but afraid you might forget to set your alarm for that 8am class on Monday? Aurora solves that problem. But what if your Mac is asleep? Or the volume is muted? Aurora will wake your computer and even unmute it if it has to.

Aurora even has a fade in option to ease you out of that deep sleep if you’re into that sort of thing.

Thanks to versiontracker.com for the images.

The newest version of Aurora costs 15 EUR at the project’s homepage. Of course there is a 14 day trial period before you have to buy a license.  There is even a 20% (3 EUR) student discount.

However, if you would like to try an older version of Aurora for free, here is the download link.
