Run Late, the alarm that refuses to negotiate

A GPS-based alarm designed to get chronically late people out the door, not merely awake.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-31 issue.

Field notes

The workflow starts with an arrival time and commute estimate, then calculates a personal departure line; the page’s example leaves at 8:10 AM for a 9:00 AM arrival with a 40-minute trip. The alarm is described as remaining active until a 150-foot GPS movement gate is completed, with a 50-step camera alternative. A lock-screen countdown and GPS-based departure log extend the intervention beyond a single alert.
