Anybody have good mp3 files to use as alarm sounds?
If the sound is too annoying I will turn it off right away and go back to sleep.
I usually take a while to wake up so very short ones dont work too well for me.
Sometimes I want gentle and other times more aggressive so all moods are welcome.
To directly share files, you can upload them to a temporary file hosting service like https://upload.disroot.org/ and post/pm a link.
If you have one that came with your phone but can’t access the file to share (or dont want to), just post the name and if possible what kind of phone it is, maybe I can find it. (On my android phone you must have Rooted the device to access the alarm files.)
Don’t use your favorite song. I did that once now I can’t listen to it without getting dread
The solution for waking up is math.
Get an app that does not allow you to snooze or turn it off without solving math problems. Just 32 + 47 - 13 is enough to get you up. It is very frustrating though, standing there with mots of noise wanting to solve it fast.
I’m bad enough at math wide awake
You can control the difficulty 😉
Geez… Do you hate yourself?
I have mine set to the same sound as an incoming phone call, that way psychologically it’s harder to ignore or dismiss.
Always a good choice from Marc Rebillet!
I’ve been using The Cursed Clock from Nine Inch Nails Ghosts: Locust album.
It starts out soft and low, but slowly builds.
I’ve been using this for years and it’s about as perfect of an alarm as I’ve ever found.
Sound of glass breaking. Wakes me up in a hurry every time.
the one song that NASA banned where the only intelligible words are “big black cadillac” in the middle, i’d look it up but i’m on the toilet at work
The Legendary Stardust Cowboy - paralyzed
The HEEEYYYEEEYYEEEYYEEAAA song with He Man has been a favorite of mine for a long time.
And when I was struggling the most with getting up, I made my alarm sound a screaming goat. It gets you up, but don’t use it if you have heart problems or anything.
I used to use an air raid siren, but my partner grew up around tornados so now I use The Roost music from Animal Crossing. I ripped that from a mk8 youtube video years ago
I set my alarm to a soma.fm station so it’s not the same everyday
I use “Air Hockey Saloon” by Chris Zabriskie. Certainly more on the gentle side.

Wake up, get up, get out there from Persona 5
I wake up to molchat doma - volny every day
Just ripped it from newpipe and set the song to my alarm tone.
Up before the drums come in almost always, but if im dog tired and dont hear it, the drums coming in will do it.
radio alarm app!
I’m awful at waking up, absolute dog shit.
I recently got a watch that monitors my heart rate and can also do alarms, it just vibrate, but the buttons are small and the screen is finicky so I have to really focus to press snooze or end. Then I have an alarm on my phone that starts vibrating a minute later and its been working great to wake me up.
Unfortunately I can’t do any sort of sound because it’ll wake up the whole house, then we’re all having a bad morning.
