Alarmy

Alarmy somewhat shares Timely's lighthearted tone, although this time the goal is not so much a relaxing interface, but quite the opposite. It is an alarm clock application specialized in sleepers, with alarm tones at full volume. It is an alarm app, without a clock or stopwatch.
Not only that, but it is possible to establish modes of turn off the alarm like go for a walk, take a picture or solve a math problem, to make sure you don't fall asleep. If this is not enough, you can even activate a post-check after a few minutes, to confirm that you have not fallen asleep.

Timy alarm clock

Another great alarm app for those who have trouble getting out of bed is Timy Alarm Clock. It is quite colorful, with animated characters that star in mini-games that you must complete to turn off the alarm.
The idea is as follows: when the alarm sounds, you must successfully complete a minigame, being able to choose the difficulty when setting the alarm. Until you complete the minigame, the alarm does not stop ringing.
