Whether you are a snoozer or just want a better sleep pattern, there is always an app that suits you. Try them out and who knows, maybe you’ll suddenly become a morning person.
Alarmy: actively waking up with your iPhone
If you have trouble getting up, Alarmy is for you. This app is nicknamed “the hardest alarm clock in the world,” and for good reason.
That’s because you actually have to get out of bed and perform a task, such as doing some math or taking a picture of a certain spot in your house, before you can turn off the alarm tone. After turning off the alarm on your iPhone, at least you know you’re properly awake.
