There are two other methods for waking up which are slap and flip (a large snooze button before turning it around) and a basic swipe for those wanting to keep it simple. If you don’t, the alarm will continue playing. If the standard methods don’t work, then how about adding a physical action to things? In the case of Wake, you must shake your phone until the metre is filled up if you want to turn off the alarm. It’s quite similar to Gentle Alarm but has other features like increasing your alarm’s volume the longer you leave it on. Which one you opt for will depend on the type of smartphone you have but while Alarmify has one main feature (it wakes you up with music from Spotify), Alarm Clock Xtreme has that and many other features worth considering. The alarm wakes you up within a 30-minute window before your alarm time so you won’t have to worry about oversleeping.Īlarmify (iOS) or Alarm Clock Xtreme and Timer (Android)Ĭost: Free (Alarmify), €1.50 (Alarm Clock Xtreme) Set your time, allow it to track your sleeping patterns, and it will pick the best time to wake you. It’s been around a while but Sleep Cycle continues to be one of the best out there.
The level of customisation for alarms, the ability to play music playlists (your own, a radio stream or Spotify music) and solving challenges or simple maths problems to deactivate your alarm makes it one of the best apps of its kind out there. It can look a bit dated in comparison to other apps but the core of Gentle Alarm and the many features included is worth the price. While a different phone alarm isn’t going to solve all your sleeping problems – doing that would require more fundamental changes - their approach to getting you out of bed may help. GETTING UP EARLY is always a difficult task, especially if you are returning to work after a long break (if you were already back this week, you have our sympathy).
