I had set my phone alarm to go off at 04:00am, with a very irritating tone, to ring nonstop. Having slept late and with a project deadline fast approaching. The alarm went off OK as programmed, I got up and switched it off, and went back to sleep! Reminds me of Mr bean!

I got rid of that habit by using "Sleep as Android", an app that allows you to dismiss your alarm by scanning an NFC tag or a QR code (among many others). I scan my NFC tag that I placed in the bathroom to stop it. You can also set a maximum number of snoozes for it and it can't be stopped, except (I believe, never tried it) using a task manager style of app. Works for me just fine.

@julianmd very nice! Have to try it. Thanks!

I use alarm clock extreme for Android. It requires you to solve a man problem to stop it (configurable). I've gotten really good at math in my head, so I had to crank the difficulty up a bit to make it to work on time!

@javajavajava Sleep as Android also has that, too :P
