I can’t be the only one who needs to set alarms like this. Not pictured: 9:00, 9:10
I only have three alarms I can set on my cheap phone, but the one continues to go off every five minutes.  I do it in 15 minute intervals though!

I set mine in 7-minute intervals, so when i hit snooze for 8:55, I’ll get a repeat at 9:00 and then a new one to deal with at 9:02, (then 9:05), (then 9:07), new one at 9:09, (9:10) (9:12) (9:14) (9:15), new one at 9:16, etc.

My thing is that somehow, in my half-asleep state of mind, I’ve figured out how to cancel the alarm, and cancel the snooze… on a frakking touchscreen… without putting on my glasses… while being mostly unconscious. This is why I need to set half-a-dozen alarms.
My unconscious mind is so much smarter than me.

This is exactly what I do. It’s the only way.



Same here! AND»»I even put my phone on the other side of the room so that I have to PHYSICALLY get up to make it turn off but….
1)I either get up, hit snooze and bring it into bed with me and from there…
     a)turn it all the way off 
     b)bury it under the pillows 
     c)keep hitting snooze 
     d)successfully wake up 30 minutes later than my intentions
2)My kitty gets to my buzzing phone before I even notice it and she turns it off!! (really she learned to paw it and hit the buttons to get it to shut up, she’s so sweet!)
