Waking up for class just got easier! Have you ever had one of those mornings where you just didn't want to get out of bed, or where you woke up late, even though you set like, 5 alarms? Alarmy (also nicknamed the World's Most Annoying Alarm) is a Wake-Up Alarm Clock app (available for free on IOS and Android devices) that is programmed with 3 tasks you can do to stop the alarm from ringing. You set up the app by taking a photo of an area in your room - once the alarm is set, the first way to make it stop ringing is to get out of bed and go take a photo of the same area! The second way to stop the alarm from ringing is to shake off all your sleep with 'Shake Mode' where you physically shake your phone until you reach your preset goal. Lastly, you can also solve a math problem to stop the alarm from ringing! These tasks are sure to wake you up in the morning, just in time for your classes!
