Upreps

Read full description

The snooze stays locked until you move. Upreps is an alarm clock with one rule: to turn it off, you do a short physical mission. Ten push-ups. Twenty squats. A thirty-second plank. You record it on your own phone, and the app checks that you actually did it. Ignore it and it comes back. Every two minutes, up to ten times, then it stops. Relentless enough to get you up, bounded so it cannot follow you through your day. HOW A MORNING WORKS The alarm rings through silent mode and Focus. You pick up the phone, prop it against something, and the mission starts. Thirty seconds of recording. The AI looks at what you did and decides. Then the alarm is done, and so are you โ€” awake, upright, and already moving. NO JUDGEMENT Verification errs towards accepting a real effort rather than rejecting one. When it cannot decide, you confirm the morning yourself. There is a Recovery Day for when your body needs one, and taking it does not break anything. WHAT IS FREE The alarm. Every mission. The recording. Your streak. All of it, permanently. You are not paying a subscription for an alarm clock. WHAT PRO ADDS โ€ข Unlimited alarms โ€ข Automatic AI verification of every recording โ€ข Your full history and trends โ€ข Your own targets and affirmations YOUR RECORDINGS STAY ON YOUR PHONE There is no Upreps account and no server holding your mornings. Clips are deleted after 30 days, or immediately if you turn storage off. With AI verification on, a handful of still frames are sent to be judged and nothing is kept. โ€” Upreps is not a medical device and gives no medical advice. Exercise carries risk, and doing it moments after waking carries more. Talk to a doctor before you start if you have any injury, heart or blood-pressure condition, are pregnant, or are unsure. Set a target you can complete safely half asleep. Do not rely on Upreps as your only alarm where missing a wake-up has real consequences. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled. Manage or cancel in Settings or the App Store. Privacy policy: https://upreps.pages.dev/privacy Terms of use: https://upreps.pages.dev/terms
