You don't have a snooze problem.
You have a "five more minutes" problem.
Captain Wake is the alarm that refuses to shut up until you're actually out of bed. Pick a mission — photograph the sky, scan a barcode, solve math, shake your phone — and the alarm won't stop until it's done.



How It Works
Set your alarm
Pick a wake-up time, choose a challenge, see your sleep forecast. Go to sleep.
Complete the mission
Alarm rings. You must finish the task to silence it. No dismiss button. No workaround.
You're awake
Mission done, streak updated, morning earned. The hard part is over in under 60 seconds.
Pick Your Wake-Up Mission
Each mission forces real engagement. Apple Vision verifies photos on-device — no faking it.
Photo Verification
Photograph a real object — toothbrush, sink, kettle, mirror, shoes, your dog. AI confirms it on-device.
Math Problems
Solve equations calibrated to your wake-up state. Easy, medium, hard, or insane.
Shake Phone
Shake vigorously until the gauge fills. Forces real physical movement.
Barcode Scan
Stick a barcode on your bathroom mirror or fridge. No code, no silence.



Built to Be Unkillable
Can't close, can't escape
The alarm re-arms itself across app kills, reboots, and dismissals. Only the mission stops it.
Escalating volume
Ignore it and it gets louder with stronger vibrations. It will outlast your willpower.
5-minute snooze cap
One snooze. Five minutes. That's all you get.
Silent capture mode
Take photos without shutter sound. Your roommates will thank you.
