You wake up, grab your phone, and lose 40 minutes to TikTok before you've even sat up. Wakn Up ends that. There's no snooze — to silence the alarm you complete a mission (push-ups counted by the camera, maths, or scan a barcode in another room), and it keeps your doomscroll apps locked until you're actually up and out of bed, until you do steps or something productive. best of all you cant even delete wakn up to give in when apps are blocked. Streaks, friends and weekly leagues keep you honest.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Logan, the maker of Wakn Up.
This started with the worst 40 minutes of my day — the ones right after my alarm. I'd turn it off, "just check my phone," and lose the better part of an hour to TikTok in bed before I'd even sat up. Every morning started already behind, and already fried.
The core problem: your alarm hands you your phone at your weakest moment — half-asleep, zero willpower — and then walks away. So I built one that doesn't.
Wakn Up has no snooze. To silence it you have to actually do something — 10 push-ups counted by the camera, solve maths, scan a barcode in another room, or walk out of your bedroom. And here's the part that fixed my mornings: it keeps your doomscroll apps (TikTok, Instagram) locked until you've properly earned them back — not just until the alarm stops. No "quick check" that eats an hour.
Then it makes the habit stick: a wake-up streak, friends on a leaderboard, and weekly leagues. "Don't break the group streak" beats willpower every time.
It's on iOS with a 3-day free trial, so you can throw it at a brutal Monday first.
I'd love your feedback: what's the first thing you reach for your phone to check in the morning — and would locking it actually help, or just make you rage? I'm here all day.
