# Wakepoint > A loud alarm that wakes you when you reach your stop. Free, no ads, no tracking.

Tell it where you're going, then close the app and take a nap — Wakepoint will ring a loud alarm the moment you get near your destination.

Perfect for:
• Long bus, train, or metro rides where you'd love to sleep but might miss your stop.
• Road-trip passengers who want to wake up before an interesting turn-off.
• Anyone who has ever slept past their station.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Add a destination — paste a Google Maps share link, or search a place by name.
2. Choose a trigger radius: 200 m, 500 m, 1 km, 2 km, or 5 km.
3. Flip the switch to arm the alarm. Put your phone away.
4. When you get within the radius, the alarm rings loudly — even if your phone is locked and Wakepoint is closed.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
• Works even when you kill the app or the phone is asleep. No missed stops.
• No account, no login, no email address needed.
• No ads.
• No tracking. Your location never leaves your device — it's only used to compute distance to the destination you set.
• 100% free.

PERMISSIONS
• Location (background): needed so the alarm can fire while the app is backgrounded or the phone is locked. Without this, you'd have to keep the app open the whole trip.
• Notifications: required on Android 13+ to show the ongoing "Wakepoint armed" notification and to ring the alarm.
• Exact alarm: makes the alarm fire on time instead of within a battery-saving window.

Wakepoint is open, honest, and does exactly one thing: wakes you up at your stop. ## Rankings - #3,070,595 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS` - `android.permission.SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM` - `android.permission.USE_EXACT_ALARM` - `android.permission.USE_FULL_SCREEN_INTENT` - `android.permission.VIBRATE` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `dev.techwhizz.wakepoint.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [WakePoint](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.wakepoint.wakepoint) — 13 users - [WakeMe](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.wakeme.wakeme) — 15 users - [WakePoint GPS Arrival Alarm](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.unleash.wakepoint) — 39 users - [WakePoint - GPS Location Alarm](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.wakepoint.app) — 110 users - [Wake up commuters!](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.sagitariusemigrante.wakeupcommuters) — 16 users - [Wake Me Up: GPS Location Alarm](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.acefina.locatalert) — 377 users - [WakePoint: Konum Bazlı Alarm](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.s1studio.wakepoint) — 52 users - [WakeMeThere: GPS Alarm](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.wakemethere.app) - [Wakemap: GPS Travel Alarm](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fabrizioandrade.alarmaUbi) — 124 users - [WakeMapp](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.maputility) — 12 users - [RouteWake: Destination Alarm](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.lasanda.routewake) — 100 users - [WakeMe GPS](https://chrome-stats.com/d/uy.com.ingesys.alarma_gps) — 12 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/dev.techwhizz.wakepoint)
