Have you ever been traveling on public transport, especially at night, and felt afraid to fall asleep because you might miss your stop? 😴🚍 You keep checking the map, tracking the distance, maybe even setting a rough time-based alarm, but that’s unreliable. And worse, you don’t want to wake up everyone on the bus or train just to get off at your stop. That’s exactly why I built DestMate. DestMate is a smart, location-based travel alarm designed for commuters, travelers, and anyone who naps on the go. You simply set your destination, and DestMate wakes you up as you approach it—using a private alarm through your headphones or earbuds, so only you hear it. 🚏 What makes DestMate different? - Location-based wake-up alarm – alerts you using GPS as you near your stop - Time failsafe alarm – backup alarm if location is unavailable - Headphone / earbud-only alerts – perfect for night buses, trains, and flights (with vibration fallback) - Live ETA & distance tracking - Missed stop alerts – so you know if you pass your destination - QR alarm sharing – share routes with friends instantly - Offline-friendly maps powered by OpenStreetMap ✨ Why DestMate? - Built specifically for public transport & travel - Let's you sleep peacefully without anxiety - Battery-efficient background tracking - No sharing of precise location data If you’ve ever stayed awake longer than needed just because you were scared of missing your stop, DestMate is for you.

Love this — turning commute anxiety into a simple, location-smart alarm UX 🙌

@zeiki_yu Thanks. When I was solo traveling in Europe, changing destinations every couple of days, mostly by bus and train, I really needed an app like this to help me sleep better during the journeys. That’s why I made it. I hope this helps more people.

When I’m travelling, I constantly check my phone to avoid getting off at the wrong stop. Defo think this app will help me enjoy my audiobooks in peace on the train.

@nicc666 Glad you liked it

How accurate is the location-based wake-up on long rides or underground routes? And does the offline mode still work well in areas with spotty GPS? Congrats on the launch! love the idea of arriving awake, not anxious

@paul_shaburov2 The app uses your GPS data in the background (only when you have an active alarm), so the accuracy depends on your phone’s GPS accuracy. The offline mode is actually a fallback time that you can set yourself, based on the ETA shown in the app or in your phone’s default map apps. If the location is not available, the alarm will still play when the fallback time is reached. This fallback mode is like a normal time-based alarm, but the sound plays only through your earphones and not out loud.

@noob_dev this is a big coincidence. I was thinking about this solution when I almost miss my train stop at Belmont yesterday. when is iOS coming?

Tasnim Ur Rahaman Anas

@ayobamiu I wanted to ship Android and iOS together, but iOS has much tighter background restrictions than Android. While iOS does allow background location and notifications, it doesn’t allow third-party apps to reliably play a persistent “alarm-style” sound when the phone is locked, especially with custom audio routing like earphone-only alerts. So iOS is unfortunately not possible

This is a clever solution for commuters and travelers. From a systems perspective, I’m curious—how do you handle the location-trigger accuracy in low-signal areas like subways? Love the focus on 'earphone-only' audio for privacy. Great launch!

I had some kind of features to add in your app and to upgrade this app to next level 1. If you are going in a wrong direction in the bus or caps, then alarm will be rang. 2. If while driving the cars, he got heavy sleep, you couldn’t control ,then if you turn on emergency alarm ranks every five minutes till you stop If you couldn’t respond then after call reach your family 3. In racing field. Who reach first ,in their phone alarm will be rang and give the details. How much time would you finish and all the things? 4. For safety purpose, Swiggy Zomato delivery boy, reach your home, then alarm will be rang Due to this features, your app will get more value than ,you can go ahead into paid version
