Alarmah

Get up to make it stop.

Alarmah rings with a full-screen video and its own sound, even on silent. To turn it off, you finish a mission: math, typing, squats, or a photo of your kitchen sink.

Free for iPhone. No subscriptions, no ads, no account.

Ringing until you finish

Eight missions. Chain a few.

To turn the alarm off you have to finish a mission first. Heavy sleeper? Stack several; they run in order.

Missions run in order. The alarm stops only after all of them are done.

Loud, even on silent.

Alarmah rings at full volume with the video's own sound, even with the ringer switch off.

  • Extra loud mode boosts the sound above normal full volume.
  • Spoken reminders read out the time, today's weather and your alarm's name.
  • Gentle wake-up can raise the volume slowly, if you'd rather.

Wake up to a video, not a beep.

Each wallpaper is a full-screen video with its own sound. New ones are added online, so the library keeps growing.

Or use your own photos and videos.

Pick anything from your library as the alarm screen. Photos and silent clips get a sound from the built-in tones. They stay on your phone and are never uploaded.

Wake-up check

Five minutes after you turn the alarm off, Alarmah asks if you're awake. Don't answer in 90 seconds and it rings again.

Chains for deep sleepers

Add math, then a photo of the sink, then fifty steps. The alarm stops only when the last one is done.

It talks to you

Spoken reminders a few seconds into the alarm: the time, today's weather and your alarm's name, using the iPhone's own voices.

Good morning. It's 6:30.
Right now it's 24 degrees Celsius and clear. Today's high is 29, and the low is 18.

A backup if the app is closed

Alarmah also schedules iPhone system alarms and time-sensitive notifications, so a swiped-away app still rings.

Questions

Something else? Read the support page or email us.

Is Alarmah free?

Yes. There are no subscriptions, no in-app purchases and no ads.

Will it ring if my phone is on silent?

Yes, as long as Alarmah stays in the background. Don't swipe it away in the app switcher: that's how it rings at full volume with the video's sound, even with the ringer switch off.

What happens if I close the app?

The alarm still goes off as an iPhone system alarm or a time-sensitive notification, but without the video. Open Alarmah once after restarting your phone.

What if I can't finish a mission?

If a mission needs a permission you turned off, such as the camera or motion, Alarmah swaps it for another one, usually math problems. You can always turn the alarm off.

Does the photo mission work with any object?

It works with everyday things like a sink, a bathtub, a fridge or a coffee machine. When you set up the alarm, test the item first so you know it's recognized in your light.

Can I use my own video?

Yes. Pick any photo or video from your library. Photos and silent clips get a sound from the built-in tones. They stay on your iPhone.

Does Alarmah collect my data?

No. There's no account and no tracking. The camera and motion sensors are read live on your phone and nothing is saved or sent. Details are in the privacy policy.

Which iPhones does it run on?

Any iPhone with iOS 17 or later.

See you at 6:30.
