Totem is an alarm clock you cannot switch off from bed. Stick an NFC tag somewhere you have to physically walk to — the bathroom mirror, the kettle, the front door. When your alarm goes off, the only way to stop it is to get up and hold your phone against that tag. By the time you've walked across the room, you're awake. That's the whole idea. NO SNOOZE, NO SHORTCUTS There is no snooze button. There is no "dismiss" button. Closing the app doesn't help either — Totem keeps reminding you until the tag is scanned. ONE TAG, EVERY ALARM Register a single tag once and it works for every alarm you create. Change it whenever you like from Settings. BUILT FOR REAL MORNINGS • 12-hour time picker with AM/PM • Repeat on any combination of days, with weekday and weekend shortcuts • Optional labels so you know which alarm is which • Alarms sound even when the app is closed • Breaks through Focus and Do Not Disturb, including Sleep Focus LOST YOUR TAG? Emergencies happen. You get two overrides every 30 days, each confirmed with Face ID or your passcode, and you'll be asked to register a replacement tag straight afterwards. Deliberately limited, so it stays an emergency exit rather than a second snooze button. NO TAG YET? NO PROBLEM You can start using Totem before your tags arrive. Alarms stop with a normal button until you register one, and you can add a tag at any time. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-up. No ads, no tracking, no analytics. Your alarms, your labels and your tag stay on your phone and are never uploaded. REQUIREMENTS Totem needs an iPhone with NFC reading (iPhone 7 or later) and an NFC tag or sticker. Blank NDEF-formatted NFC stickers are inexpensive and widely available online. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Totem Pro — auto-renewable monthly subscription.
