QR code alarm
Scan a code you left in another room to turn off the alarm. You have to walk there to do it.
In short
- Register any QR code or barcode when you set up the alarm.
- When it rings, find that code and scan it.
- Scanning a different code doesn't work.
How it works
While setting up the mission, scan any code you own, like the barcode on a box of tea or toothpaste, or create a new QR code in the app and share or print it. Stick it somewhere far from your bed. When the alarm rings, walk to the code and point the camera at it. The alarm stops only for the code you registered.
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 |
|---|---|
| Code | Any QR code or barcode you scan in setup, or a new printable code from the app |
| Permission | Camera, asked the first time |
Tips for heavy sleepers
- Put the code in the bathroom or kitchen, as far from your bed as you can.
- Don't leave a second copy by your bed.
Questions
What if I move or lose the code?
The alarm needs the exact code you registered, so keep it somewhere fixed. If you move or lose it, register a new code in the alarm's settings before you go to sleep. If the camera can't be used when the alarm rings, Alarmah gives you math problems instead.
