The alarm you
have to earn.
Roosta does not stop for a tap. It stops when you have solved something, moved something, or found something — by which point you are already awake. Then it hands you your streak and gets out of the way.

How it works
Three steps, one good morning.
Step 1
Set the alarm
Pick a time, pick the days, pick what it takes to switch it off. It takes about fifteen seconds.
Step 2
Wake up and earn it
When it rings, the mission appears. The alarm keeps going until you finish it — snoozing is a choice you have to make awake.
Step 3
Keep the streak
Every morning you beat adds a day. Miss one and Roosta shrugs, not sulks. Tomorrow is another sunrise.
Missions
Pick your poison.
Every alarm gets its own mission and its own difficulty. Mix them, or let Roosta surprise you.

Privacy
Your mornings are nobody else's business.
No account, no email
Nothing to sign up for. Your alarms, stats and streak stay on your phone.
Camera never leaves the device
Scan missions analyse frames on-device in real time. No frame is saved, uploaded, or seen by us.
Offline by design
The whole wake-up path runs without a connection. No signal, no problem — you still wake up.
Questions people actually ask.
Can I still turn the alarm off if something goes wrong?
Yes. Always. Every mission has a timeout and an escape hatch that opens after a short delay, whatever the mission is doing. Friction is the point; being trapped is not — you should never miss a flight because of an app.
Does it work without internet?
Completely. Nothing on the wake-up path needs a connection: the schedule, the sound, and every mission run entirely on your device. Airplane mode changes nothing.
What happens to camera photos from the scan missions?
Nothing leaves your phone. Camera frames are analysed on-device to check whether the mission is complete, and they are never saved, uploaded, or shown to anyone. See the Privacy Policy for detail.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-up, no email, no password. Your alarms and your streak live on your device.
Will it shame me for snoozing?
Never. Roosta is disappointed for you, never in you. It cheers when you win and shrugs when you do not — the alarm is already adversarial enough.
Tomorrow morning could go differently.
