    Sleep as Android!

    You can make it device administrator and additionally add a max snooze count and a dismissal CAPTCHA. When I REALLY have to get up no matter what, I need to go physically touch my phone to an NFC tag in the living room. Can’t even turn the phone off because it blocks that when ringing when given admin access.

        It’s location based. It gives you an option to turn off if you are not in you home location. Unless you explicitly disable that clause.

            Yup! There are levels of fucked up. At the basic level, if it’s accidentally set to override location check, there are easy solutions like force closing the app, uninstalling the app, turning off the phone.

            Mind you, the app knows you force closed it. So it will let you know next time if you want to go to next level of strictness.

            At the highest level of fuck up, you can provide admin access so that switching apps and physical buttons are all disabled. So you best bet would be to let the battery drain out and somehow muffle the speakers.

            There is also another “fun” captcha. You pledge a small amount of money. If you don’t wake up, the money gets donated to fund sleep-related research.

        I accidentally set it to extreme hard difficulty once (250 sheeps). It was a horrible morning that day

      AMdroid is similar, bunch of different task and puzzle options you can set for your future self to solve before you can turn the alarm off. I usually do math problems, just difficult enough that I need to be at least 90% conscious to actually solve them.

      come morning time I hate the app with a passion, but it’s just the kick in the ass I need sometimes
