Never miss your stop again

Features & Capabilities

If you often travel by train, bus, or any other means of transportation, you've surely found yourself in a situation where you're not sure if your stop is coming up soon — so you reach for your phone, open Google Maps, and nervously check when to get off. With Glarm, you don't have to worry about that anymore. Easily schedule an alarm that will ring as you approach your chosen location, and take a nap or keep watching the next episode of your favourite series in peace. Glarm lets you create an alarm that activates at a set distance from your destination. You can attach a note to the alarm, assign it to a category, and configure it to trigger every time you cross the boundary of a defined region.

User Reviews

Pros: useful for location-based reminders and has a strong concept with positive reception. Cons: proximity alerts are unreliable, repeating alarms are missing, occasional instability, and perimeter setup is cumbersome. Overall, promising but reliability and UX need improvements.

Pros

Useful for location-based reminders during commutes and errands (bus stops, train stations, stores).
Positive reception of the app's concept and potential; reviewers describe it as a great idea with many uses.
Overall appreciation and perceived usefulness from multiple users.

Cons

Alerts do not reliably trigger when near the set location (inconsistent proximity notifications).
No option to schedule or repeat alarms; users want repeating alarms or automation (e.g., Shortcuts).
Occasional instability or crashes after multiple uses reported by some users.
Perimeter/controls are cumbersome and hard to set accurately (complicated zoom/slider, desire for a quick drop-pin with a fixed radius).

Recent reviews

I bought this to try to avoid getting caught in a well-known speed trap on my commute to work. It never alerted me when I was within the preset radius. I tried it with the volume on and the volume off. I checked my notification settings and it was set correctly. I emailed tech-support and never heard back.

Never sleep through your bus stop, or zone out past your subway station. Don’t forget to stop at the store on the way home. So many uses! Thanks for a great app!
