AlarmahMath alarm
Solve math problems to turn off the alarm. Your brain has to switch on before the ringing stops.
In short
- The alarm keeps ringing until you solve every problem.
- Choose 1 to 10 problems and easy, normal or hard.
- A wrong answer doesn't count. You get a new try straight away.
How it works
When the alarm rings, a problem appears over the video. Type the answer on the keypad and tap Check. Get it right and the next problem appears; get it wrong and you try again. When the last problem is solved, the alarm stops (or moves on to your next mission).
Math is also the backup mission: if a camera or motion mission can't run, for example because a permission is off, Alarmah gives you math problems instead, so you can always turn the alarm off.
You can add up to five missions to one alarm. They run in order, and the alarm stops only after the last one.
Settings
| Setting | Options |
|---|---|
| Problems | 1 to 10 (default 3) |
| Easy | Add two numbers, like 23 + 41 |
| Normal | Multiply by one digit, like 64 × 7, or add three numbers, like 38 + 51 + 77 |
| Hard | Multiply two-digit numbers and add, like 17 × 23 + 45, or add and subtract three-digit numbers |
Tips for heavy sleepers
- Start on normal with 3 problems. Hard is tough when you've just woken up.
- Chain math with a movement mission, like steps, so you think and move.
- If you solve easy problems half-asleep, raise the count before the difficulty.
Questions
What happens if I get an answer wrong?
The answer box clears and the same problem stays until you get it right. Only correct answers count toward your total.
Does it work in Arabic?
Yes. The whole app, including the math mission, works in Arabic.
