About

The Super Alarm

Features
Read full description

You don't need a louder alarm. You need one you can't dismiss from under the covers. Super Alarm only stops when you get out of bed and scan a real object in your home — your fridge, your mirror, your coffee machine — or a QR spot placed across the room. By the time you've dismissed it, you're already up. Made for heavy sleepers and chronic snoozers: - Enroll any household object with a guided object scan that captures useful views automatically. No printer, no stickers. - Or create a QR spot for the bathroom or kitchen. - Walking across the room breaks the half-asleep snooze loop for good. Built to be trusted: - Scheduled notification wake flow with an in-app dismissal challenge. - A reliability checklist so your phone settings can't silence you. - Local diagnostics export when you want to verify reliability yourself. Private by design: - Object recognition and QR scanning run on your iPhone. - No account, no ads, no cloud sync. Alarm and scan features work offline. - Camera frames, QR payloads, and object fingerprints are never sent to analytics or diagnostics providers. - Optional anonymous product analytics can be turned off in Settings. Essential crash diagnostics help us find alarm reliability failures. Wake up on time. Get out of bed. Start the morning on your feet.
