An alarm clock that wakes you with a message you recorded for yourself, instead of a tone you've learned to sleep through.
Everything you can measure is impaired for the first fifteen to thirty minutes after waking.
Midnight-you knows what the day needs. Seven-a.m.-you can barely find the phone. This is a way for the first one to hand something to the second — which is the whole reason the name is plural.
The wake-up message
Keep it to one thing. You are not going to retain a list at 7am, and the message that works is usually the reason you set the alarm in the first place.
The day's plan
A second message, delivered a set number of minutes after you shut the alarm off — not at a clock time, so sleeping in carries it with you. This one can be the whole list, because by the time it lands you can act on it. Built for anyone who kills the alarm in two seconds because someone else is asleep next to them.
Wind down
Arrives as a notification instead. For the message meant to catch you rather than wake you — take the pills, pack the bag, stop working.
Hold your phone up and record whatever is happening in the room. A comedian on stage, a friend at 2am, a kid singing. Pick a day. It plays once and stops.
Record something now and choose when you hear it: in three hours, at a time you pick, or never — parked on a shelf until you go looking for it.
A nap. A Pomodoro that chimes at twenty and rings at forty. A thirty-minute timeout. A parking meter that goes off ten minutes early, while you can still move the car.
A set of recordings that take over when you hit snooze, escalating each time. Make your own, or install one somebody sent you.
Recordings live in the app's private storage on your phone and are gone when you delete them. Transcription runs on the device. There is nothing to sign up for, because there is nothing to sign up to.
The box below is the only exception, and it exists solely because Google will not let you install the thing otherwise.
Google requires twelve testers for fourteen days before a new app can go public. Get in now and it installs from the Play Store like anything else, updates included.
