## What is Novu Alarm?

Never Snooze Again.

Novu Alarm is built for people who are tired of turning off their alarm and falling right back asleep.

Instead of dismissing your alarm from bed, Novu Alarm requires you to get up and physically tap your phone to your Novu Pod. Place your Pod across the room, in the bathroom, by your coffee maker, or anywhere that helps get you moving.

Once you’re up, optional App Blocking can help you stay up by temporarily blocking the distracting apps you choose.

GET OUT OF BED
Create your alarm, place your Novu Pod away from your bed, and tap it with your phone when your alarm goes off.

BLOCK DISTRACTIONS AFTER WAKING
Enable App Blocking on any alarm and choose which apps or categories you want blocked after dismissal. Create reusable Focus Mode profiles and choose how long they stay active.
