Awake: Turning off the alarm won't be easy anymore

The new alarm app "Awake" requires users to complete tasks to disable the alarm, TechCrunch reported.

The app aims to force heavy sleepers into real activity. To stop the alarm, users must solve math problems, shake the phone, or perform physical tasks.

The developers say this helps people fully wake up. The app also offers personalization — users can choose what types of tasks they want.

Currently, "Awake" is available for free on iOS. An Android version is expected in the coming months.
