I'd like the alarm app on my phone to have a checkbox to mark an alarm "important". Choosing it would force me to confirm the date/time, always be visible on-screen to reassure me, forbid it to be silent even if my volume is off, and forbid it be canceled without confirming.

There are just too many things right now that might mean an alarm doesn't happen when you want it to. I don't think it would be difficult for an alarm app designer to fix. In other news, I have to be awake at 4.30am tomorrow for a flight.

I had to board a train at 5AM. The clock bell was so loud it gave me a jump scare off the bed. I did catch the train.

To tell the full story, it was a long time ago, when smartphones hadn't been invented yet.

Our expectations were low but met, back then...
