Doesn't work – CARROT Alarm - Talking Alarm Clock Review

It's supposed to function if you enable notifications & sounds if you leave the app running in the foreground but lock the screen. It doesn't. This was according to instructions from the app itself. Didn't happen. All I got were a bunch of silent, progressively insulting notifications and was late for work. So next, I left the phone unlocked with the app running. Unfortunately, I can do Carrot's "chores" in a state of near consciousness & once I get her to shut up, I'm back to sleep in a matter of seconds. I wish I hadn't wasted my money.
