### 1/5 — Costs money

*2026-08-03*

Why does an alarm app cost money I rather have some adds then have to pay

**Developer response:** hey! i’m running this completely solo and i’m still in school, so making it free just isn’t viable. i actually tried having a free tier for the first month of launch, but it got costly pretty fast. it’s also worth noting that this isn’t just a simple alarm app… there’s a lot more going on behind the scenes, like the games, social features, and the LLMs powering some of the challenges.

### 1/5 — Free bruh

*2026-07-08*

Make sound freeeee
Plssss

### 3/5 — I love the idea

*2026-08-23*

Honestly it seems great and sh but I'm broke asl so if I ever find out there's a free way I'd definitely get it fosho

### 3/5 — Great but needs work

*2026-07-06*

This is actually a great app, it sends encouragement reminders, and when you don’t do the challenge it pesters you with alarms, it’s effective but it doesn’t recognize me. I chose the pushups and squats challenge and it can’t recognize me completing them, i tried many camera angles to capture my full body but it just doesn’t register anything so now i can’t turn the alarm off🫠 i was a bit over eager and probably should’ve did the trial first because now i won’t get a refund but i have to delete the app to turn off this alarm permanently.

### 3/5 — Man man

*2026-07-05*

It’s a good idea but the push-up tracker sucks trash also every time I try to scan something it says ai unreachable.

**Developer response:** hey! when “ai unreachable” pops up, it’s usually due to an outage that’s out of my control. also, the push-up challenge is constantly being tweaked and is actually pretty accurate now. i lowkey underestimated how many different setups and scenarios people are doing them in, so it’s just something i’m always adjusting lol

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2026-08-24*

I love how the app made me wake up by completing challenges like it was in a game, this made it so much easier for me to start getting up instead of constantly hitting snooze and losing so much time in my day.

### 5/5 — Is good!

*2026-08-15*

I love it add it to your ipad or phone or whatever! Not a bot btw..

### 5/5 — Actually works

*2026-08-11*

Simple concept that works. You have to complete a challenge to turn off the alarm so it actually gets you out of bed instead of hitting snooze. I love it!!

### 5/5 — life saver

*2026-08-10*

I have such a hard time waking up in the morning and this has been a life saver to force me out of bed. super loud and persistent but that’s the whole point cuz it makes me annoyed enough to where it works and i’m up! I actually do enjoy the mini games and picture hunting even if it sucks to wake up. in my opinion the subscription is worth it since i’m finally getting to work and class on time! apple alarms just weren’t cutting it lowk.

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2026-05-20*

As someone who always struggles to wake up to a regular alarm, this app works every morning for me.
