Better than expected

Best alarm app

This is the most you could ask for an alarm app, with the BEST features. If you add more and more features like points and daily activities, then you would greatly get attentions from many morning people. W DoodlewakeπŸ”₯

This means a lot, thank you! Love the points and daily activities ideas, and that direction is very much on the roadmap. Big update in the works too with a refreshed UI and native iPhone alarm support. More to come πŸ‘€
