The anti-snooze alarm clock for iPhone
Wake up.
Stay up.

Coming soon to the App Store. Weekly with a 3-day free trial, or Annual. The price, the renewal date and the real total are in plain text before you ever subscribe.
How it works
One alarm. One task. A morning in four steps.
Most alarm apps solve “make a noise at 6:30”. Albori solves “still be awake at 6:45”. The sun on your screen changes as you get there.
Set the alarm, pick one task
Choose the challenge that fits your morning: Math Sprint, Squats, Push-ups, or an Object Photo taken outside the bedroom. Decided while you're awake and reasonable.
22:30Prove you're awake
Wake Mode strips everything away: near-black screen, huge type, one task. No snooze, no back button, no negotiation. Complete the task to silence the alarm.
06:30Still up?
An optional wake check asks you to confirm you didn't crawl back under the covers. If returning to bed is your real problem, this is the part that fixes it.
06:41The morning is yours
You get the sunrise screen, your streak, and the day. Progress tracks whether waking up is getting easier, morning by morning.
Day 12Wake-up missions
Four missions. Each one your iPhone can actually check.
No “walk 20 steps” counters that a phone in a pocket can fool. Every mission verifies something real, on the device, and none of them can trap you: if a camera task fails twice, Albori offers the backup with full credit.
Object Photo
Albori names an everyday object that lives outside your bedroom. Find it, photograph it, and you're up. Literally.
Verified by on-device image recognition, live camera only.
Squats
Ten reps counted by on-device pose detection. Real movement over time; a photo of you squatting counts nothing.
Verified by body pose tracked across frames, down then up.
Push-ups
Eight push-ups, counted by the camera on your device. Blood moving, brain on, alarm off. The strongest anti-snooze effect in the catalog.
Verified by body pose tracked across frames, down then up.
Math Sprint
Three quick arithmetic questions on a huge keypad. No camera needed, and the universal backup when one fails.
Verified by correct answers. After three misses, difficulty quietly drops a step.
Wake Mode
Designed for a brain that is barely online.
At 6:30 you are negotiating with the version of yourself that always chooses the bed. Wake Mode gives that version nothing to work with.
- ✓One task on screen. Nothing else.No tab bar, no back button, no settings. The only way forward is through.
- ✓Every word at 24pt or larger.Near-black ground, high-contrast type, 68pt keys. Readable with one eye open.
- ✓No snooze. Not hidden, not disabled. Absent.For a genuine emergency there is a 10-second press-and-hold that ends the alarm, and the streak with it.
- ✓Failing never traps you.Two failed verifications recommend the backup task, with equal credit. Wrong answers shake and clear.
The second half of the problem
Dismissing the alarm is easy. Staying up is the job.
Two things most alarm apps skip: checking that you are still awake, and checking that tomorrow's alarm can actually ring.
The wake check
About ten minutes after your task, Albori asks one question: still up? Quick is a tap; Strong asks for another camera task done outside the bedroom. Leaving the room is the single strongest predictor of staying awake, so the check pushes you there.
The reliability check
Eight settings decide whether an alarm on iPhone can do its job. Albori checks all of them, in words, before you go to bed.
- Alarm access and notifications
- Alarm volume, sound and haptics
- Headphones or a speaker still connected
- Camera access, if a task needs it
