All the vibrating alarm clocks I could find do not sync with your phone, and have to be set manually. I thought about getting an Arduino, but then I will have to build the whole thing by myself. The only logical conclusion I could come up with is to get a programable vibrator. But most of them are either very expensive of look too much like a vibrator (sus).

Get yourself a Garmin watch.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

My Garmin watch alarm vibrates. It syncs with my phone but I don't know if alarms can be set from phone.

that is one way to wake up

Or a hammer drill with no bit on it...duct taped to the bed frame. Bam instant earthquake style alarm.

Well my samsung galaxy phone and my samsumg galaxy watch are in sync

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

I came to say that! It's brilliant.

Maybe OP can strap it to their dick or shove it inside to achieve a desirable effect. I can only vouch for wrist mounted experience.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

personally I use a tablet as an alarm clock and the vibrate works well enough.

I haven't used a Fitbit in years but it does this too, as an armband.

This says it's bluetooth with android and apple but I don't know what the bluetooth connection syncs...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Why does it need to sync with your phone?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago
  • have to only set it on one device
  • auto daylight saving adjustment
  • wake up on calendar events
[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

so you can set alarms on you phone. And have the vibrator vibrate on time. duh!

[–] [email protected] -4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I mean you can also do that on any alarm clock ever made pretty easily.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

I've never seen an alarm clock that didn't have a function to change the time of the alarm. That would defeat the purpose of the alarm clock.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

yes, but you don't set it from your phone.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Yes but you cant have the alarm's time synced from the phone, no alarm clock i know of lets a phone set the alarm.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

This is a shitpost, but people are taking it seriously?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Do you have the option to go to bed early enough that you can just wake up at the desired time without an alarm? May not work effectively till you’ve recovered sleep debt. You may need to sleep in late a few weekends to recover sleep debt, but don’t get carried away such that you can’t sleep that night. It also helps to tire yourself out with exercise so you can sleep when you want and then wake up without an alarm.

For other options, try a programmable butt plug maybe

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

This one plugs into an audio port, and does calls/messages as well as alarms amazon.com/dp/B009CIYRMS

There are Bluetooth ones too, but the cheapest I could find was $50

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Try a Mi Band. I usually don't recommend Xiaomi products because of their heavy tracking and intrusiveness, but if you only use the band during sleep, you should be fine. If you already have the know-how (which I suspect you do), you can control it yourself through Bluetooth, and the band will erase all data it holds once transmitted.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Or an Amazfit band (Mi band but the more western-sold version). The Band 5 is pretty cheap and has a decent buzzer.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Some of the Mi Bands work pretty well with GadgetBridge, which would block their ability to phone home. There's a list is compatible devices somewhere on the GadgetBridge wiki.

Throw in a leg strap, and this becomes the best bang-for-the-buck solution.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Why does it need to sync with your phone?

What's the goal of connecting it?

As others have mentioned, I'd look for alarm clocks for deaf people. Many are in the $20 range but don't do Bluetooth.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago

probably because the times vary

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

This is a stupid answer, but you could buy a cheap android phone. The carrier-locked phones are very inexpensive.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I used to use this, you can turn the audible alarm all the way off and just use the shaker!

I had one of these until I got married. You will wake up, many times in a panic. Good times.
