Risly is an iOS alarm clock with no snooze button. It rings through silent mode, Focus / Do Not Disturb and a locked screen, and it doesn't stop until you complete a wake-up mission.
Seven missions, one per alarm:
- Scan: find and photograph a real object across the room
- Push-ups: the front camera counts your reps
- QR code: print it once, stick it on the bathroom mirror; scanning it is the only way out
- Barcode: no printer needed, register any code you already own
- Memory: reproduce a pattern that grows over three rounds
- Math: solve problems at the difficulty you choose
- Shake: shake until your body is awake
Built on AlarmKit (iOS 26), so it's a real system alarm rather than a notification that dies when the app is killed. Object recognition and push-up counting run on-device with Vision.
I built it because every "no snooze" alarm I tried could still be killed by a half-asleep tap. This one can't: there's no snooze button and no escape hatch.
3-day free trial, then monthly or yearly. iOS 26+, 18 languages.
