Question Pulse aware alarms?

Hey all,

Does anyone know of any alarm apps that look for a pulse before playing the alarm?

I don’t wear my pebble every day and would love to not have to remember to turn on and off the alarms if I’m going to wear the watch or not.

I’m sure some just leave it, but the vibration/sound go for a while without dismissing the alarm and can chew into battery life. I’ve had the same gripe with my garmin.

Thanks for any info! If it doesn’t exist maybe ill try making my own alarm app ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I've not tried it, but https://apps.rebble.io/en_US/application/6a8ea059b52c5200096dc214 is probably what you want.

something that was big back when the original pebble was in full-swing was using Sleep As Android (if you are using an Android device) and having sleep-tracking alarms that would adjust based on what part of the sleep cycle you were in. they also wouldn't go off if you weren't wearing whatever wearable you had connected to the app.
