Pick your mission the night before. In the morning, the alarm doesn't go quiet until it's done — and every check happens on your phone. Nothing is recorded, uploaded, or sent anywhere. If a camera mission's verification ever fails repeatedly, it falls back to math: the alarm is ringing, the AI is optional.
One to five problems, three difficulty levels — from two-digit sums to three-operand expressions with mixed precedence. Getting one wrong keeps the same problem in front of you, so there's no re-rolling until an easy one appears. Math is also the universal fallback: if a camera mission's verification ever fails repeatedly, the alarm swaps to math rather than trapping you.
Retype a phrase character-for-character — case-sensitive, with autocorrect and autocomplete disabled. Pick from the built-in motivational phrases or write your own. Reading comprehension plus fine motor precision is a surprisingly effective wakefulness check.
Shake the phone a set number of times (default 20), counted by the accelerometer. Each shake has to be a distinct, vigorous motion — one long wobble doesn't count as twenty. Physical, fast, and needs no setup.
Prop the phone up and do your reps. On-device pose detection watches your elbow angle — a rep only counts when you go all the way down and all the way back up at a realistic speed, so half-reps and camera-waving don't fool it. The camera feed is processed on the phone and never stored or sent anywhere.
Register a spot that forces you out of bed — the bathroom sink, the coffee machine, the front door. The morning photo is matched against it entirely on your phone. Matching is deliberately forgiving about lighting and angle: it's checking you walked to the right place, not punishing you for a lamp being off.
Register any QR code or barcode — a sticker in the bathroom, the cereal box, your shampoo bottle — and the alarm only stops when you scan that exact code. Scanning the wrong one doesn't work. If the sticker ever goes missing, the mission falls back to math instead of ringing forever.
At bedtime, record a short movement — a stretch, five jumping jacks, an interpretive dance, your call. In the morning, repeat it for the camera. The comparison runs on your phone and is tolerant of speed and body position, so you don't need to be a choreographer — just awake.
A pattern flashes on a 3×3 grid; repeat it from memory. Three rounds, each one longer. A wrong tap restarts the round with a fresh pattern — so you have to actually remember, not brute-force. Cognitive rather than physical, for people who wake up in apartments with thin walls.
Walk a set number of steps (default 30), counted by the phone's own step sensor. Thirty steps is roughly a lap of the apartment — enough to be irreversibly out of bed. Zero setup, works in the dark, no camera involved.
The free tier includes math, shake, and photo match with one alarm; the $19.99 Lifetime Unlock adds every mission and unlimited alarms. Full pricing.
