Wake missions for iPhone alarms
Last updated: June 15, 2026
Wake missions are optional dismissal steps for mornings when a normal Stop button is too easy.
Mission Types
- Mental missions: Math, Memory, Typing, Tap, Symbol, and 2048.
- Movement missions: Walk, Shake, and Squat when motion-based proof fits the morning.
- Place-based missions: Scan, QR Code, or Photo Match when getting out of bed is the point.
Permission Restraint
Camera, motion, photo, and scan permissions should be tied to selected missions, not requested for every alarm by default.
Best Fit
Use wake missions when you want dismissal to require intention while keeping the core alarm setup clear.
