The Email Alarm alarm screen: an email from Shift Scheduler, with a large Stop button

A normal notification is easy to miss.

An alarm isn't.

Rings on silent
Takes over the lock screen
Cuts through Do Not Disturb

Same email. Two different mornings.

The shift sign-up email lands at 9:02. What happens next is up to your phone.

With a normal notification

9:02

The email arrives. A small notification, phone in your pocket.

10:15

Still unseen, buried under other notifications.

11:40

You open it. The good shifts are gone.

With Email Alarm

9:02

The email arrives.

9:02

Your phone rings like an alarm, full screen.

9:03

You're signed up. First pick.

For the emails where minutes matter

Some emails can wait. These can't.

First-come shift sign-ups

The sign-up link arrives by email, and the best shifts are gone in minutes.

The email you're waiting on

Immigration, a visa, a job offer. You don't know when it lands or which address it comes from.

The customer who decides

When the deal is on the table, the first reply wins.

See it in action

Set it once. Forget about your inbox.

The main screen with three alarms: restaurant shifts, an immigration appointment and a client — Your alarms, front and centerTurn each one on or off with a tap, like your alarm clock.

Editing an alarm with the keyword USCIS, with a tip on keeping the email out of spam — It only rings for the things that matter to youType “uscis” and it also rings for “USCIS Online Account”.

The test buttons and recent activity, showing which emails rang the alarm — Test it before you need itAnd see every email it caught, right on your phone.

Set it up in a minute

No account, no sign-in, no setup wizard.

STEP 1

Create an alarm

A sender, a keyword, or both. If either one matches, it rings.

STEP 2

It watches your email apps

Gmail, Outlook and more — every account you already have on your phone.

STEP 3

It rings until you stop it

Full screen, over the lock screen, through Do Not Disturb.

Your email never leaves your phone.

Email Alarm reads the notifications your email app already shows and checks them right there, on your phone. It never logs into your email account and never sends your email anywhere. Its only connection is to Google Play, to check your subscription. No accounts, no ads, no tracking.

Good to know

What it needs to work, stated plainly.

Your email app has to be on the phone, with notifications on. If an account stops syncing, there's no notification to hear.
Emails that land in spam don't create a notification, so they can't ring either. For senders you don't know yet — an immigration office, a government agency — create a filter on the Gmail website with a word that will be in the email, and check “Never send it to Spam”. It works even if you don't know the address.
Outlook and some other apps only show the sender's name, not the address. For those, use the name or a keyword — the app tells you when an alarm can't match.
Android only. The iPhone version connects directly to your email account instead. Explore Email Alarm for iPhone.

The email you can't afford to miss.

Relax. Email Alarm will let you know the moment it arrives.
