Oh, so instead of snoozing, the only option becomes "turn off"? That won't end well.
Don't mean to jump on you, and I'm sure that would work for some. But for those who are past that point... Less so.
most devices have the turn off right next to snooze anyway, but yea I can see where that might be counterproductive if they are sleeping through it. They do make puzzle alarms as well for that that require you to do something in order to turn it off, that might be a better solution
yeah, i've got one where it puts some colored circles in a grid and tells you to tap all the green ones or whatever. i tried the answer-a-math-problem ones, but i'm really dumb before coffee.
My friend uses three separate alarms because the smartphones let you do this. For her they are not just wake up alarms but also the key points of the morning- first one: you have 10 minutes to get out of bed. Second one: make the cuppa and get to the shower. Third one: now the work related messages and calls may start.
