  • If your on Android;

    Amdroid is the best alarm app I’m aware of. (Called “Alarm clock for heavy sleepers” on play store)

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amdroidalarmclock.amdroid

    (Best few bucks Ive spent on an app, ad version just has ads in ui, nothing crazy) It has a feature where 5 min after you dismiss the alarm, it’ll send a notification asking if your awake. If you don’t respond after a while, the alarm goes again. (Times adjustable)

    Sorry I’ve typed more than intended too, I’ll put most under a spoiler so its not a wall of text…

    It also manages alarms setting as profiles, set up a few types of alarms once and when setting new alarms you only have to set a time and pick a profile.

    Tons of different options; You can make them location or calendar dependent, make dismissing them require a certain light level or WiFi signal strength (go turn on a light or stand next to router in other room). You can make your self do some math or captcha to dismiss alarm (I have mine set to require a simple captcha when deleting,). You can make snooze duration get incrementally less, so maybe 10min, then 8, then 6 and so on…

    Got a day off or need to wake up early one day, well you can skip or change the time for just the next time the alarm is supposed to go off, then it goes back to normal.












  • Thank you for your suggestion.

    Having just tried it, it is not for me. The categories is there, but having the search/app drawrr on the top won’t work me, especially with these stupid large phone everyone makes. (I’m guessing theres a way to change it, but I didnt get that far)

    The ultimate reason its not for me is how widgets are a scrolling thing. It’s a different idea, but I like the widgets on my home screen where I can passively see them.

    If there’s a way to change that, I didnt see it. I didn’t even find a way to get rid of the big clock at the bottom.
