Rise + Find

Rise + Find is an interactive alarm clock app designed to wake the heaviest of sleepers.

Many people have the problem of falling back asleep once they turn their alarm off. Based off this insight, Rise + Find forces the user to find the alarm's off button that's hidden within the app.

Alarm settings - the "Cube Amount" slider determines how many cubes appear.

The more cubes there are, the harder it is to find the alarm's off button.

When the app's alarm rings, users are taken to a room of randomly generated cubes.

Using the phone's gyroscopic sensor, the user must look around the cube room to locate the alarm's off button.

To find the off button, users must tap the cubes and search each face by rotating it with the touch screen.
