What is the best FOSS alarm clock app? (lemmy.ml)

I'm looking for an alarm clock app alternative to the Google Clock, which I use mainly because it allows me to link a Spotify playlist to an alarm. Do you know about any app with similar characteristics? If not, then what is the best alarm clock app you would recommend?

Just wanted to say that I like Chrono app, dev responded to me and added the feature I need real quick.

Unfortunately it happened to me a few times that alarm didn't work in «on specified week days» mode. I woke up naturally in time though. It's possible that this is a bug in MIUI specifically.

In normal mode (where you turn the alarm on to trigger tomorrow) it works perfect for me.

I also had the same problem with Chrono and some other alarm applications. I think the ones that worked well had SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM in their permissions, but of course, that's just a guess. This one is my favorite: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.best.deskclock/
