Don’t stop typing. If you do, all your work will disappear and be gone forever. Danger Notes is the ultimate writing tool to help fight writer’s block. Whether you are writing a term paper, an essay, a book, your best-man speech, promising rap lyrics or just free writing, Danger Notes will help you fight writer’s block by forcing you to keep writing in order to save your progress from being deleted. The theory behind this wonderful writing tool, is that by pressuring you to keep writing, you will be forced to formulate an actual flow of written work instead of just staring at a blank document for 2 hours with no progress to show for. The more words you type the easier it will be to break past your writer's block and keep typing. Break writer's block with Danger Notes.
Tapp Alarm
This alarm app requires you to physically get out of bed and tap your phone to a remote dock to turn it off. It ensures alarms ring at full volume, even in silent mode, to prevent oversleeping.
- Remote dock pairing
- Scan dock to dismiss alarm
- Rings at full volume
- Bypasses silent mode and DND
- Simple setup

Tapp Alarm is built for people who sleep through everything. Ordinary alarms fail because turning them off is too easy — you silence them half-asleep and drift right back off. Tapp fixes that by putting the off switch across the room. Stick a Tapp Dock wherever you actually need to be standing to wake up — the bathroom, the kitchen, your gym bag — and the ringing only stops when you physically get up and tap your phone to it. How it works: - Pair your Tapp Dock in seconds by using our app. Tapp remembers it as your personal off switch. - Set an alarm and choose your dismiss mission: Scan the Dock. - When the alarm fires, it keeps ringing until the mission is complete. No snooze trap, no half-asleep dismissal. Alarms you can rely on: - Rings at full volume even in silent mode and Do Not Disturb. - Keeps sounding until you're genuinely up and moving. - Clean, simple setup — pair once and forget it. If you've tried every alarm app and still oversleep, Tapp is the one that finally gets you out of bed.
