WakeProof: Barcode Alarm Clock

Keep turning off your alarm and falling back asleep? WakeProof is a barcode alarm clock for heavy sleepers who need a reason to get out of bed. Save a QR code or barcode in the bathroom or kitchen, then walk over and scan it to dismiss your morning alarm.

A wake-up mission with a purpose

Your task is simple: leave the bed and scan the code you registered. Use a barcode on an everyday item or a QR code placed away from your pillow. This scan-to-dismiss routine helps you break the snooze habit and start your morning on your feet.

Still awake? Check again

An optional wake-up check follows the alarm dismissal, asking you to confirm that you are still awake. It adds another step to your morning routine if you tend to crawl back into bed.

Set up your mornings

• Schedule one-time or repeating alarms for your routine

• Choose QR code and barcode scan missions

• Use controlled snooze and emergency dismissal when needed

• Run a 10-second alarm test before relying on your setup

• Follow your wake-up history, completion rate and streaks

• Choose a light, dark or system theme

Start with three steps

1. Set your alarm time and register a code away from bed.

2. Check the required Android permissions and run the alarm test.

3. When the alarm rings, get up and scan your saved code.

WakeProof Pro

Some features require Pro. Upgrade for unlimited active alarms, more scan missions, enhanced wake-up checks and full progress history. Purchases are handled by Google Play and can be restored in Settings.

Your codes stay private

WakeProof stores a cryptographic hash of the registered code, not its original value or camera images. Alarm and wake-up history are stored on your device. No WakeProof account is required.

Before your first morning

Alarm delivery depends on device settings. Allow the required notifications, exact alarms and full-screen access; check alarm volume, battery restrictions and Do Not Disturb. Force-stopping the app or system restrictions can affect alerts. No alarm app can guarantee delivery in every device state: keep a backup alarm for critical situations.
