alarm app (lemmy.ml)

I need an alarm app that lets me scan QR codes. I find that it helps me get out of bed and take my meds in a timely manner. I have QRalarm but it's a onetime use alarm and I can't schedule times for certain days which I find to be really important. I normally use alarmy but it requires the Google Play store and I'd prefer to not have that yk.

Anyone know a foss option?

This would probably work great most of the time. One worry I had when exploring NFC tags was if the tag gets lost, or you are out of home and forget to skip the alarm

With barcodes/QR you can generate one on the spot if you know what the original one was. Some people just have a thing for the word "barcode"

Example

I guess you could always uninstall the app or force shut down the phone

Is that a QR code that says “barcode”?

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It is, for legacy reasons

(I quickly threw it together)

I’m just making sure I decoded it correctly. :)
