I Can't Wake Up! Alarm Clock

I really have a hard time waking up in the morning and I frequently hit the snooze button and accidentally fall back asleep. I used the barcode option to scan the barcode on my shampoo that is inside my shower so I am forced to get out of bed and walk to my shower before my alarm will shut up. It's the only alarm that works. There are a ton of other awesome features that make this app really helpful and extremely customizable. Love it!

This app is AWESOME!!! It's interactive which gets me out of bed in morning to make it shut off. I love the bar code scanner alarm. The math one gets my brain working early and helps get me going. This app saved me from losing my job from tardiness. I absolutely love it. I would rate it an 11 on a scale of 1-10. If you have trouble getting up in and out of bed, this is THE ONLY no fail alarm I've found. GET THIS ALARM CLOCK. You will love it too

I have been using this app for almost 2 years, and I love it! I use a Ringtone maker to make all of my alarms from song samples, and some I make myself in Caustic 3. This is the only app that truly wakes me up since I sleep so deeply. It never fails unless I fall asleep right before the alarm goes off. If you have trouble waking up, you NEED, absolutely NEED, this app.

It's got a lot of really cool options. Most of them are ones you can find in other apps but it's nice that they're all together in one place. The implementation and interface is better than most as well. 2 suggestions more obvious buttons. Took me a while to figure out you could click certain places to modify settings. Optional Time between tasks so a person can create a time line of tasks like a morning routine.

I was looking for a clock I could set to go off when each of my classes end. I found it! Added my own ringtones for children and now my students know when to start cleaning up, and I don't have to watch the clock to get them back to regular classroom on time. I was also able to set it so it stops the alarm by itself after one minute of music and I don't have to leave the students to dismiss the alarm. The kids love it! I do too!

When set correctly there is no chance of sleeping thru an alarm. I used most of the puzzles and then finally found one I like that I use pretty consistently. Now I wake up the first time my alarm goes off and rarely hit snooze (never using 'snooze' is my goal). I've been using this alarm for over a year and won't use anything else. This is pretty foolproof so if it's imperative that I be up at a certain time, this is the alarm I trust.

I used to set 5+ alarms to make sure I got up but I'd always turn them all off after first alarm. With this app it's not so easy, especially with the wake test. The most effective, efficient alarm app there is. PERFECT for deep sleepers. The puzzles wake you up and keep you that way. Will never go back to another alarm.

Great at, but I can only give it 2 stars, AND I can't use it. It seems with Samsung phones, the feature to lower the volume while you're solving the puzzle doesnt work. So it stays at full volume (thereby waking everyone in the house, not just me). Fix this issue and I'll give it 5 stars again. That's the only thing keeping it at 1 star

I've been using this app to help get used to a new schedule. Despite all my tired brain attempts to snooze, disable, or otherwise attempt to avoid this alarm, it always gets me up. The little puzzles help to get my mind active enough to wake up, and the persistence of the app helps too. It has lots of customisable features, and I love that. The only way I've managed to disable this alarm is to take the battery out. It's pretty darn reliable. Wish I knew about this app sooner.

Forces you to wake up and engage your mind to turn it off. Or it won't shut up until you perform certain exercises. And it has many optional features that can be very entertaining, educational, and/or practical. I especially liked the matching game where it forces you to match capital cities to the various countries around the world. Plus you can make your own matching cvs file that it can read for you to customize. Study and remember answers to questions for a test or something. Short of drinking a lot of water before bed so you'll have a very strong urge to get up and go to the bathroom this app is the way to go. Haha. Thanks so much developers.

I am the Queen of Snooze and it makes my husband crazy. This gets me up and has been a game changer for me. I can get up without hitting snooze 6 times and waking him up every time. The free one is great, but I paid for the app just to support the awesome person who made it.

This is SOOOOOO close to getting five stars, except that every time my phone gets a software update this app stops working properly for a couple days. All the rest of the time this app is amazing. I just had another software update a couple days ago though and this morning my barcode scanner just wouldn't scan within the app. Extra hard to deal with because it kept relaunching the alarm on restart even though I have it set to NOT do that. So overall this thing is great, but beware of the first time you need it after updating your phone.

Simple, very quick & easy to set, change, edit or delete any alarms you might have saved previously. I've never had to set an alarm regardless of the time but use it as backup just in case & it has always done it's job perfectly. If u need an alarm u won't find a better one then this one

This app is awesome! After months of not having to be awake at a specific time, I found it difficult to get myself out of bed. I constantly hit snooze and was running behind every morning. With this app it doesn't happen anymore! Its amazing! I love the shake to turn alarm volume down too so that way my alarm doesn't continue blasting while I am trying to scan something. My husband sleeps in much later than I do so this alarm gets me up without disturbing him.

There are a lot of non-copyrights music on YouTube. I think you should dev to allow play automatically it before alarm go off. It's the best way to wake up someone (house, electronic, etc are very "hard"). Also, you should make up theme for this app - like material design, blur - which is attractive to more user.

This app solves my persistent problem of turning off alarms in my sleep. It has loads of features and settings that allow anyone to customize what works best for them. Show increase in alarm volume, tests to compete before you can turn the alarm off, awake tests after alarms go off, vibration, light flashing, customized to days of the week. This is without a doubt the best alarm app

The only app that consistently works for me. I would love an option to opt out of the "lower volume" button you can press while using the barcode scanner. Ill find myself pressing it too long and then i wont get up for a while longer. Almost like an inoptional snooze

The most effective alarm when it comes to getting me to wake up in the morning. Forces me to get out of bed so that I can scan something and the memory part forces my brain to begin to function. Plus the mental math! Ouch! If nothing else works, this will!

Still a great app! Though warning for those who have HTC phones, the barcode scan to wake up function does not work if your phone doesn't support autofocus. Other than that I've used this app for almost 2 years. I'll try others but always come back to this App.

I love this app, it's solid, without bugs and it simply just works. It can be anything from a basic reminder up to a full blown artillery of tools to get even the heaviest sleepers up, I have slept through fire alarms until my friends woke my up, but this app never fails me. If you're looking for an alarm that will wake you up i highly recommend this one.

I was using alarm clock xtreme free...and it was a bit buggy and didn't have nearly the features this one has. My response to xtreme free wasn't that great, I would miss getting up on time a few days a week. With this app, I've been up every morning! The ability to customize with different activities and difficulty of each activity allows the user to make the perfect combination for their needs! A+

This app saves my college life as I live in a single room. It definitely is going to wake your mind up, both physically and mentally. For the Developer, you guys should have more and more puzzle . Keep the good work. Wish I had the 6th star for you guys. However, try to improve the theme, it look a little bit too dull

Most alarms my subconscious, sleepy self can ignore or turn off (and go back to sleep). This one actually wakes me up, and allows me to wake up to my own music. It's got a variety of tasks that can be set at different skill levels. Great app, decent design.

Its great. I could snooze thru hours of alarms going off every 5 mins lol. This app forces your mind to be active so after all the games you have to play, and math?! My ass is awake. No going back to bed after that even if I try. Love it

Doesn't give you a choice. I normally have to delete then redownload the app just to get it to turn off from time to time. It is INCREDI LY loud (I work as a contractor and constantly have people from other rooms tell me to turn off my alarm) and very annoying. All in all if this doesn't wake you up then you're probably in comatose.

This app is ingenious! Too often I just hit the snooze button endlessly until I finally wake up much later than I intended. This makes me wake up and engage my brain. Making it much more likely for me engage my a$$ and get it out of bed.

When I snooze or end an alarm at 5am while my phone is locked, and then an extended ad dialogue blares uncontrollably until I figure out how to unlock my phone and silence the ad, that invalidates the entire function of this app. Absolutely unacceptable and a total deal breaker. I used this app for over a year and previously left a 5 star rating, but this has happened one time too often and I'm done with it. Shame on whoever made that call.

I am terrible at getting up, but the puzzles you have to solve force me to get up. I can stack enough puzzles on my alarm to keep my busy for 5 min. It also lowers the volume while you are solving the puzzles, but blast it again after a second of not touching the screen. Overall, it is a well thought out app that is perfect for people who can't get up.

I've been historically bad at waking up in the morning. From turning off alarms while half asleep to outright ignoring them, I've been late to plenty of classes and other morning engagements because of that habit. This app really helps wake me up in the morning. If you have trouble waking up, this is the app for you!

Love the engaging tasks, as well as the Quit Block function. I still can cheat by either turning off my phone or messing with the alarm before it goes off (in addition to other drastic measures), but these methods are not really preventable. Wish the barcode scanner worked better.

I sleep through every alarm I've ever set. I've downloaded specific ring tones and songs that are supposed to be a no fail wake up. I have no recollection of being awake or shutting my alarms off. Yes, plural. I would set upwards of 5 alarms and still manage to shut them off before waking up. This app is amazing. I have to use my brain before it can be disarmed! I wake up when I want to now! Thank you!

Is there any particular barcode scanner that this app wants to install? I have installed a barcode scanner as instructed but the app can't seem to recognize it. I have tried power cycling, clearing the app's data but nothing works. I would be very delighted if this concern can be addressed. Thank you very much.

I usually struggle every morning to get out of bed. Normally I would just hit the snooze button or dismiss the alarm, turn around and sleep again. With the bar code scanner I HAVE to get up to scan the barcode and this absolutely works. ( I chose my body lotion in the bathroom) I haven't been late for work in ages! Love this app.

Was 5 star, uninstalled now, maybe I'll check back in 6 months. I want the ability to decide how to display notifications, I always kept the notification active, I like to see when the next alarm is set to go off with a swipe. I hate the persistent icon, and it's complete and utter pointlessness, all it tells me is I will have an alarm go off...sometime...in the future... I no longer have access to a great feature, and the rest of the app is not so unique that I can't replace the functionality elsewhere.

I take quite a lot to get up and the loud noises setting on this helps a lot. Loud noise 3 on volume 10 and turn off the snooze option. The option for puzzles really helps too because it kind or bullies me awake with loads of horrible tasks. Love it

EDIT: No longer works on my Galaxy s5. I overslept an exam because it stopped working with the latest Android update. Please fix. am terrible at waking up and this is the only thing that has ever helped. And I've tried everything, even that robot alarm that rolls away when it goes off. I cannot recommend this app enough.

STILL awesome and no major gripes, but there might be a major problem developing. I just shut off my alarm this morning and the solution to the math problem to one of the equations it accepted was incorrect. Kept selecting the right solution, but it would not accept it. Even had a seperate calculator open to verify. So might wanna take a gander at that.

This was the biggest PAIN IN THE ASS to uninstall. So thanks for that. It helped for a while, but I got too used to it, even with switching puzzles around. I felt like the hardest puzzle settings were way too hard even if you were fully awake, but I could do the second hardest level half asleep and fall right back into it. Also, does not play FLAC files as alarms, which was disappointing.

It will just keep ringing until you do the task you previously selected (math problems, memory games, etc.) I enjoy also using the simple alarm feature of it when I need reminders when I'm awake. I like that you can select to do tasks or not, as well as which types of tasks to do and the difficulty. It makes you wake up!

This app is awesome. I've struggled with waking up my whole life. Falling back into that sleepy dream state is always overpoweringly seductive, causing me to hit snooze repeatedly each morning. This app gives me the option to get my brain engaged in order to turn it off. I can choose just one cognitive activity or a few, whatever I need to get the brain juice flowing. Three to four seems to be my sweet spot. Does a nice job of dissipating that addictive urge to drift back into dream land.
