Unsnooze is the alarm you can't snooze. Tired of hitting snooze and oversleeping? Unsnooze rings until you actually wake up. The only way to stop it: solve a quick math problem. No snooze button. No "five more minutes." HOW IT WORKS 1. Set your alarm time and repeat days. 2. When it rings, a math problem appears. 3. Solve it to stop the alarm — your brain switches on, you're awake. WHY UNSNOOZE • Solve to silence — no mindless snoozing, ever. • Rings through Silent mode and Focus. • Button-proof — the volume and power buttons can't quiet it; only solving does. • Relentless — it keeps ringing even if you try to close it. • Beautifully simple — one screen, one task. No clutter. • Pick your challenge — easy, medium, or hard math. • Custom sounds, vibration, light/dark, and 10 languages. FREE, FOREVER No ads. No subscriptions. Unsnooze is built by a solo developer (RS Labs Dev) — if it gets you out of bed, you can leave an optional tip to support development. Wake up for real. Requires iOS 26 or later. Alarm and notification permissions are needed so Unsnooze can ring on schedule, even in Silent or Focus mode.
