An alarm
you have to earn.

Chalarmy is an iPhone alarm that won't shut up until you finish a small task. Solve a few sums. Walk twenty steps. Scan the QR code you stuck on the fridge last night. The snooze button stops being an option, because it isn't there.

[01] The point

I built it because I kept turning my own alarm off in my sleep, then waking up at ten. The other apps that promised to fix this were full of ads, paywalls, and onboarding screens trying to sell me a sleep coach. So, this one.

[02] The challenges

Pick what gets you out of bed.

№ 01

Math

Pick a difficulty and how many equations in a row. Five Extra Hard at six in the morning is a personality test.

№ 02

Walk

Counts your steps. The phone has to come with you, which means it leaves the pillow, which is most of the battle.

№ 03

Barcode / QR code

Register a code on something annoying to reach. The cereal box on the counter. The shampoo. A QR sticker on the fridge. Scan it to make the alarm stop.

№ 04

Chess

Mate in one, two, or three. You'll wake up faster than you wanted to, looking for a knight fork.

№ 05

Shake

Shake the phone thirty, sixty, or a hundred times. Surprisingly tiring. Surprisingly hard to do without committing to it.

Free includes the alarm and easy or medium math. A premium unlock adds the harder math, the rest of the challenges, and saved profiles. No ads in either.
