The heavy sleeper problem
Normal alarm clocks are too easy to silence.
When you're half-asleep, dismissing an alarm takes one tap of muscle memory - and you're back under the covers before your brain catches up.
- One-tap snooze turns off the alarm before you're actually awake.
- Autopilot wins. You won't even remember turning it off.
- The fix isn't louder. It's getting your body moving.

FAQ
A few answers here, the rest on the FAQ page.
Does Hard Wake replace my phone alarm?
Yes - you set your wake-up alarms inside Hard Wake instead of your default clock app.
Is Jump Mode required?
No. Jump Mode is off by default and requires a one-time opt-in. Shake and Soldier Walk are available as calmer choices.
What does a companion see?
Only selected missed confirmations or routine follow-up alerts when Companion is enabled and accepted. You choose whether titles are visible, and Companion does not show your full alarm list.
