### 5/5 — Fixed My Morning Routine

*2026-03-03*

So sick of tapping the snooze button and staying in bed. And for whatever reason, Apple’s alarms sometimes don’t work. This app has completely fixed my morning routine and I’m no longer late to anything. Highly recommend!

You have to get up and walk to the kitchen to turn your alarm off and you don’t notice how much of a difference this makes until you do it.
