Morning Arrows

One tap kills a normal alarm, and half-asleep you is an expert at that tap. Morning Arrows is an alarm clock for people who sleep through alarms, over-snooze, or switch them off without ever really waking: it adds an optional arrow-based task that must be completed before the alarm will stop.

The task is deliberately small — a quick moment of attention, following the arrows, simple to understand and easy to follow even at 6 a.m. — but it forces the brain online in a way a snooze button never does. Task levels are adjustable, and the requirement is per-alarm: stop an alarm normally, or make it demand the arrows first.

The clock underneath is complete and ordinary in the good way: multiple alarms for work, school, appointments, medication or daily routines; one-time alarms or repeats by weekday; your choice of ringtone and vibration settings; and a clear, simple layout for managing all of it. The app is built for daily use, with control over how strong or active each wake-up feels.

Catalog quirks, plainly: it's filed under Casual and ticked as a Game, but it's a utility — and this catalog now holds three alarm philosophies, since Sunshine Solitaire makes you clear cards to dismiss one and WakeBox proudly asks nothing at all. Users rate it 4.9 stars, albeit at a small 10K+ downloads. If arrows sound more beatable than cards at dawn, this is your version.
