You know that feeling when you get a new piece of tech and it starts out with "oh my god, this is a merical, I need to protect it" and gradually you drift to "oh my god, I cant believe I have to deal with this piece of crap"?
Anyways my Christmas tech high only lasted 14 days

Things I have learned today after hours of research, testing, installing, and uninstalling:

Concept: an app that runs on a smartwatch that activates when you disable an alarm (temporarily, not through the settings) and uses the on board sleep sensors to re-enable the alarm so you dont over sleep. But if you do actually wake up the first time, you dont need to disable a second alarm.

I would love to know if this app already exists or if someone is going to make it
