Looking to replace, automate or improve your existing school bells, tone generator or school public address system?

School PA System provides a simple way to schedule school bells, announcements and other public address messages, directly from an iPad, iPhone or iPod (the app is now universal, meaning it can be used at native resolution on any iOS device).

Some of the great features that can save your school, church or group thousands of dollars include:

1. Scheduled bells (daily, weekly, weekends) that are fully customizable (time of day, etc). And bells of less than 30 seconds can now play in the background, even if the application is not active.
2. Select from a library of school bell sounds (get rid of your boring old tone generator today)
3. Add your own music selection directly from iTunes - why not start the day off with a fun song!
4. Select different themes / music / or bells for different times of the day or for different school events.
5. Pre-record your own public announcements, using the built-in​ voice recorder.
6. Make live announcements with our new Live Mic feature.
7. Create Emergency Signals and other messages that can be reused in specific situations.

School PA system will integrate easily with most existing installed PA Systems, or in smaller schools where an amplifier and speakers might be used. All you need is a dedicated iOS device connected to a power source and a TRS connector (also referred to as an audio jack, phone jack, headphone plug).

While this app has been designed specifically for schools, theres no reason why it couldnt be used in churches, groups, universities, at sporting events or even as a point of sale marketing tool. Because the app is flexible and configurable, it could be used in almost any situation where an existing PA system is being used.

School PA System is user-friendly and reliable. You can be confident that your bells or announcements will sound on time, all of the time.

NOTE: School PA System should not replace an emergency system in any school or organization. Please do not use this application in life-threatening situations.

Latest reviews of School PA System app for iPhone and iPad

Sounds
I really like this app, its almost perfect. I really wish there were more updated bell sounds to choose from, and maybe add more emergency alarms. Something, other than a bell, for a fire alarm option.
Deletes Bell Schedule When Updating
Used this app a couple of years ago, and when it updated it deleted all of my bells. I did not want to put them all in again, so I didnt use it again that year. I tried it again this year, and it did the same thing upon updating. I will not waste any more time on it.
Could be better
This is a pretty basic app that does pretty much what any native iPhone clock app does, which is to allow you to set a reminder at certain times and certain intervals of the week. (ie 8am weekdays). I could have done this with my iPhone but I wanted our homeschool alarms to be separate from my other alarms. The one thing that would make this perfect for me is the ability to 1) set up the school days for the year so that the alarms only ring on those days and 2) have the ability to turn off all alarms with one button. As it is, I have to turn one off individually.
Not what I expected
Sounds good. But when it says it must be open to run, it means upfront. It will not run from the background. It wont work for me.
DUMB!
This app wont even work in sleep mode. Whos gonna keep one app open all day to hear a bell ring?
