If you often travel by train, bus, or any other means of transportation, you've surely found yourself in a situation where you're not sure if your stop is coming up soon — so you reach for your phone, open Google Maps, and nervously check when to get off. With Glarm, you don't have to worry about that anymore. Easily schedule an alarm that will ring as you approach your chosen location, and take a nap or keep watching the next episode of your favourite series in peace. Glarm lets you create an alarm that activates at a set distance from your destination. You can attach a note to the alarm, assign it to a category, and configure it to trigger every time you cross the boundary of a defined region. ## Key features - Location-based alarms - Customizable alarm notes - Favorite alarms - Minimal battery consumption - Privacy-focused location tracking ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Healthy Tip | $2.99 | one-time | | Generous Tip | $0.99 | one-time | | Awesome Tip | $4.99 | one-time | | Unlimited Alarms | $6.99 | one-time | | Unlimited Alarms | $4.99 | one-time | ## Recent user reviews (10 of 15) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/glarm-location-based-alarms/id1523237367/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Worthless *2025-08-09* I bought this to try to avoid getting caught in a well-known speed trap on my commute to work. It never alerted me when I was within the preset radius. I tried it with the volume on and the volume off. I checked my notification settings and it was set correctly. I emailed tech-support and never heard back. ### 5/5 — Simple and intuitive *2025-07-22* Never sleep through your bus stop, or zone out past your subway station. Don’t forget to stop at the store on the way home. So many uses! Thanks for a great app! ### 2/5 — Nice, but pay wall is crazy *2025-07-09* Great app, but not at all a fan of apps that stop working after a number of uses ### 1/5 — No Repeat *2025-03-26* Does not allow me to repeat my alarm and I have to set it every time! ### 4/5 — Vibration *2024-10-11* The vibration of the alarm in silent mode needs to be a lot stronger. It’s an easy fix. ### 5/5 — Wake me up! *2024-03-28* Thank you. I really needed this app!!! ### 4/5 — Wake me up! *2023-11-16* Thank you. My next stop is miles away!!! ### 4/5 — App Store Listing Alert for Adam Wienconek! *2023-07-13* I can't write a review yet because I just downloaded the app and haven’t tested it yet. My temporary four star rating is based on it being just what I was looking for to use on train trips. So this Non-Review is here to just let the developer know that after seeing the app recommended on iReviews on YouTube, I came here to find it by searching for “Glarm” and it didn’t show up. Only when I searched for “G larm” did it appear. I suggest the dev check with the App Store to ensure his app is correctly listed in their data base. ### 2/5 — Flawed *2023-02-09, version 3.1* Fantastic app but the alarms I set up continue to go off forever, and disappear from the app leaving me no way to stop them ### 5/5 — Great concept *2023-01-30* Hi, I really liked the app. Is it possible to for the alarm to activate automatically based on day and time of the day? ## Frequently asked questions about Glarm ### What is Glarm?

A quick rating or review makes a bigger difference than you might think. Thank you! ### 3.1 — 2023-01-26 • Support for Live Activities on iOS 16.2 and newer After scheduling an alarm you can keep track of it on your lock screen in real time. Live Activities only work when Glarm is granted access to your location in "Always" mode. This is necessary because the activities have to be updated in background by app and the only way to keep it alive in the background is to constantly monitor your location. If you don't want to use Live Activities you can choose to only allow "While in use" location tracking mode. • Search for alarms In "Alarms" screen you can now use a search bar to quickly find any previously scheduled alarm. You can search by name of the location or by contents of notes. If you enjoy using Glarm please consider writing a short review in the App Store.
