MapAlarm is a location-based alarm that wakes you up when you reach your destination
MapAlarm is a location-based alarm that wakes you up when you reach your destination. Set a pin on the map, take a nap, and let MapAlarm handle the rest.
Perfect for:
- Bus and train commuters who doze off
- Long road trips as a passenger
- Uber/Lyft rides when you're tired
- Exploring a new city and need a reminder at a specific place
How it works:
1. Tap + to pick a destination on the map or search for an address
2. Set a radius (how close you want to be before the alarm fires)
3. Name your alarm and arm it
4. Relax — MapAlarm alerts you with sound, vibration, and a notification when you arrive
Key features:
- Works in the background — even when your phone is locked
- Plays alarm sound through silent mode so you actually wake up
- Haptic vibration for an extra nudge
- Notification backup so the alarm reaches you even if iOS closes the app
- Simple, clean interface with no ads or subscriptions
MapAlarm uses iOS geofencing, which is power-efficient and handled by the operating system itself. Your battery will thank you.
