Botano Shift Alarm

If you work shifts, you know the feeling: lying in bed, checking one more time whether tomorrow is an early or a late, whether the alarm is set right. Or worse — being woken up by your own alarm on a day off.

Mark your schedule once. Your alarms follow it from then on.


▍How it works

1. Mark your shifts on the calendar
2. Create an alarm set to "follow calendar"
3. Leave it alone

Early shift days ring at the early time. Late shift days ring at the late time. Days off stay silent. The only thing you do is mark the calendar when the new roster comes out.

The home screen shows the next seven days, so this week's shifts are there the moment you open the app — no need to go into the calendar.


▍Two ways to work

Shift work
Four marks — morning, afternoon, night, off — each with its own alarm time. Built for nurses, factory rotations, security, hospitality, call centres, aircrew.

Fixed days off
Just working days and days off. For people with a regular week who still take the occasional day off or get called in.


▍It takes "it must ring" seriously

The worst way an alarm app can fail is silently. So:

・After a restart, alarms are rescheduled before you even unlock the screen
・Custom sounds are copied and kept, so they still play if you delete or move the original file
・Battery saver and deep sleep are tested on real devices, not emulators
・If a required permission is missing, the home screen keeps telling you — it will not let you believe everything is fine


▍More

・Skip once: not working this Wednesday? Skip that day only
・Skip whole day: one shift often needs several alarms — once you're up, skip the rest of that day in a single tap
・Adjust once: leaving half an hour early tomorrow? Change just that one
・Snooze, gradual volume, custom sounds, vibration toggle
・Home screen widget showing the next alarm
・Notes on any day — a meeting, something to bring
・Backup and restore, so a new phone doesn't mean re-marking everything
・Dark mode
