I’ve realized over the years that on all these fancy and expensive mobile devices, the “alarm” tones are more of an annoying melody rather than just plain annoying. Easily incorporated into my dreams, I often find myself snoozing without hitting the “Snooze” button and sleeping straight through an army of repeat sessions with the common phone alarm.

I started to search around looking for an end-all loud and annoying tone to replace my handful of default alarms which sound more like an old Nokia ringtone than something that’ll wake the dead. I ended up creating my own 10-second tune. Feel free to download it as a large WAV or a small MP3.
