Feature request: alarm in front of lock screen about simple-clock HOT 4 OPEN

I have app vrsion 3.1.2 and android version 6.0.1. I found a work around where if I rotate my phone to change the screen orientation, that moves the alarm in front of the lock screen when the screen re-draws for the new aspect ratio, so I can rotate instead of unlocking when I want to snooze or dismiss an alarm. Changing the screen orientation also causes the alarm sound to stop while the screen is re-drawing, and then replay from the start once the re-draw is complete. I tested with the timer and experienced more of the same. I think my battery optimization settings may be pausing the timer while my screen is off because the timer did not go off when expected and only a few seconds were counted while my screen was off.
