I don't know. I've never tried to use the alarms/clock on it; I always use my phone. although, if you could set an alarm on your ipod, I think it would play through the dock

Yes. You can set it to emergency alert mode and if there is a weather alert for your area it will come on. And yes, it will wake you up.

Yes you can plug the IPod in and also any MP3 device plugs in to play your favorite music.

Hi Richard, the alarm is set by the iPhone or iPod that you are using. You may also wanted to install this app: D-Sappli. This dedicated dock app for iPod/iPhone will provide various timer functions like Alarm, Music Play Timer, and Sleep Timer. Hope this helps. -Ely

Yes, there would be an issue. It doesn't turn itself back on, so your alarm would only play from your device's internal speaker. Also, every time you turn the thing on, it resets the volume. Very frustrating.

Basically you control it from your phone or music device, but yes. You need to remove it in order to turn it up Cheers

I own the ipod touch 2nd gen and can confirm that this plays music through the dock, charges and works with all the alarm apps that I have tried. Just a side note, you get buzzing interference with the wifi on, this is fixed by turning the airplane mode on when docked.

It's just a dock with speakers. It will charge certain (many) ipods, but it is not an alarm clock. If you have the ipod touch, you can use the alarm on the clock app, and it will play through the speakers (but that also means you'd be keeping the ipod on the speakers/charger for a long time even after it's charged, which could wear out your battery faster). Hope this helps.

If it has an alarm then I have not used it. It is a bluetooth iPod speaker system. I use it for music; and excellent sound system!William Boon

Yes. I have a iPod Touch with lightning connector. The Sony is an excellent bedside alarm integrated with the the iPod. I highly recommend.

You will need to adjust the volume manually for wake up. You can wake up to your iPhone through the speakers. You could wake to a song that starts out soft and builds. Save the 200 bucks, Sound is great.

Yes, you connect the clock with the bluetooth setting on your phone or ipod then the clock radio plays from your Playlist on your device. The sound is pretty good quality. I've been very happy with it.

Yes, it will. My wife often plays music and/or uses an alarm clock app to wake up. Works well. Note: there are no speakers on the Belkin dock. All audio comes from the iPhone's speakers. (We also have and enjoy the version for iPhone 5.)

No. You would control the music from your iPod. I don't think you can plug this in to the USB port as it requires the 30 pin connector unless you have an adaptor of some kind.

Yes, it "wakes" the iPad when opened, and puts it to sleep when you close the case.
