This Alarm Clock Xtreme is the stuff. (This app is available for both Android and iPhone)

You figure, an alarm clock for a smartphone, that's no big deal.

Well I tell you they have thought of everything. Here is everything:

ALARMS

You can set as many different alarms, and each can repeat on as many different days of the week as you like. You can select a different ringtone for each alarm. You can set a different message for each alarm.

You can set the alarm to start at 0% volume, and slowly increase to 100% any volume level you like.

This 0-to-100 volume increase can happen over 60 seconds or even up to 20 minutes if you like. Imagine that, your alarm gently increasing in volume until you notice it and shut it off! I tell you, it is a fine thing, I tell you!

SNOOZE

You can allow snooze on your alarm, or not. The snooze can be set for any length of time, from 1 minute, to an hour. (If you set it for 9 minutes, I pity you.)

You can have the alarm display up two buttons on the screen when it goes off, one for dismiss and one for snooze. Or, you can tell it to snooze when you shake the phone, or press a side button.

DISMISS

You can also choose to dismiss the alarm when you shake the phone.

You can also have it require you to solve a math problem, or enter a CAPTCHA, to dismiss the alarm. I have not tried these features.

SAFETY

You can force it to play the alarm even if the phone is in quiet mode. You can force it to play the alarm through the phone speaker, even if headphones are plugged into the phone.

I tell you, they thought of everything!
