Set dual alarms for any meeting in seconds—one to get prepared, another to join. Give your brain time to switch contexts and join calls refreshed. Punches through iOS Silent & Focus modes.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Eiji, the solo developer behind BE READY.
Like many of you, my day is packed with Zoom calls. I rarely missed a start time, but I was constantly joining calls completely unprepared—with half my mind still stuck on the work I was just doing. I needed a way to force myself to pause, switch contexts, and actually get focused before the call started.
I wanted a radically simple 'kitchen timer' that just works. BE READY sets two alarms: one to warn you to wrap up your current task and refresh your mind, and another right before the meeting starts. The best part? The alarms punch right through iOS Silent Mode so you can safely stay in 'flow state' until that first alarm hits.
Better yet, BE READY alarms clean themselves up automatically so you don't have to deal with alarm clutter.
I've used many alarm apps with a lot of features but I fell back to Apple's standard Clock app every time because I was tired of wondering whether alarms were set properly based on my schedule and if my phone is not in silent or focus modes. I wanted something like kitchen timer, radically simple and just works every time, without making any effort on my side.
I do want to keep this app as simple as possible because the goal is to become a kitchen timer for meetings. So I want to keep the app as minimum as possible but I am wondering if it makes sense to add a widget feature. What do you think? Would love to hear your feedback!
I was setting 2 different alarms for every meeting using shortcut but after having 5 meetings a day, I end up with 10 alarms. The Clock app was a mess. I built BE READY to fix that for myself.
Hyper-focused on whatever you are working on and lose track of time? I am always like that. And I need a loud alarm to get me off the flow state. The meeting alerts go unnoticed, especially when in silent/focus modes.
BE READY alarms punch through Silent Mode and Focus Mode. It became possible because of Apple's new AlarmKit API that bypasses Silent and Focus mode.
When I found the API, I immediately started building BE READY because I really needed this.
So if you are like me, get into flow state and lose track of time, please try this app and let me know what you think.
