The moment
The first reach of the day can set its direction.
The alarm rings, the phone is already in hand, and a few minutes of news or social media can arrive before your feet touch the floor. The intention to get up has to compete while you are still barely awake.
Feet First schedules follow-up rings until scanning Anchor completes the routine. Where you place Anchor determines where the morning asks you to go.
How Anchor fits
Build the get-up action into the alarm itself.
- 01
Schedule Feet First
Choose a one-time or repeating wake-up schedule and confirm the permissions used by your iOS version.
- 02
Place Anchor before bed
Use a dresser, bathroom counter, or another accessible place that requires you to leave the pillow.
- 03
Scan to complete the routine
Follow-up rings remain scheduled until the scan completes the routine, subject to your phone state and permissions.
A practical setup
Try a gentler first morning.
Make the walk short enough to be realistic and long enough to change your physical state.
- 1
Choose tomorrow, not forever
Start with a one-time schedule, then make it repeating once the placement feels right.
- 2
Keep the path safe
Place Anchor somewhere unobstructed, reachable, and appropriate for a dark or early-morning room.
- 3
Optionally quiet the night before
Bedtime Lock can keep selected distractions out of reach overnight as part of the same evening routine.
