UpWatch: Group Alarms

Create group alarms and share status updates to keep your family, friends, or team in sync. Get notified on time and know what is happening.

UpWatch Group Alarms lets you create group alarms where people share their status with each other. You set up an alarm, add people to it, and everyone stays in the loop.

Here's how it works: You create an alarm and pick a schedule. You add people as "senders" (who share updates) or "recipients" (who receive them). When the alarm time comes, senders share their status with a tap. Recipients get notified instantly. No more forgetting to text or chasing people for updates.

REAL EXAMPLES

Remote Team Daily A distributed team uses UpWatch for async daily standups. Every day at 5pm, each team member shares what they worked on. "Finished the report, sent for review!" or "Client presentation ready!" The team lead sees all updates in one place.

Sales Team Sync Field sales reps share updates throughout the day. "08:00 - Starting at Acme Corp" then "12:00 - Presentation went great!" and "17:00 - Day done, 2 meetings completed." Manager sees everyone's progress without asking.

School Bus Tracker Kids report when they get on the bus and arrive at school. Parents get notified at each step. "On the bus!" then "At school!" and later "Home!" If a kid misses the bus, parents know right away.

Grandma Wellness Grandma lives alone and shares morning and evening updates with the family. "Good morning! Making oatmeal." and "Evening! Watched my show, heading to bed." Family stays connected without constant calls.

Night Shift Someone working night shifts checks in at the start, middle, and end of their shift. "22:00 - Shift started" then "02:00 - All quiet" and "06:00 - Heading home." Family knows they finished work.

Daily Routine Someone tracking their daily habits shares updates three times a day. Morning: "Yoga done, healthy breakfast!" Midday: "Took a real lunch break." Evening: "Screen time off, journaling done." Friends or family can follow along.

Pet Care - Max You're traveling and a friend is watching your dog Max. They send morning and evening updates. "Morning walk done! Max made a friend at the dog park." You get updates without asking.

30-Day Challenge A group doing a no-sugar challenge for 30 days. Every evening, everyone shares their progress. "Day 14 complete! Resisted the office donuts." Friends cheer each other on and stay accountable together.

Gym Buddy Two friends hold each other accountable for working out. Both are senders and recipients. Every morning at 7am, they share if they hit the gym. "Leg day done! New PR on squats!" or "Rest day, stretching instead." When one misses, the other knows.
