Fajrlock

The Fajr alarm you have to get up to turn off.

Fajrlock only stops ringing when you scan a barcode or NFC tag that you’ve placed away from your bed. By the time you reach it, you’re awake.

What it does

An alarm you can’t snooze away
It keeps ringing until you scan the barcode or NFC tag you registered, and it shows full-screen over the lock screen.
Any barcode will do
Use the barcode on a product in your kitchen or bathroom, or an NFC tag. Put it far enough away that you have to stand up.
