More on clocks

I tried Rise&Shine last night. It has conquered the problem of keeping the iPhone on but the dimming feature is not effective. It's way to bright to try and sleep.

A while back I got the "Big Clock" app. I abandoned it because the iPhone turned off after a few minutes. I'm just trying it now and they must have fixed that issue w/ an update because it stays on now. Not sure if it can be dimmed but at least it starts out on a black background. Rise&Shine's is grey and gives off a lot of its own light.
