What is PingPal?

PingPal is a groundbreaking alarm app built for direct friend-to-friend interaction. Instead of relying on a standard alarm device or your own repetitive clock, this app lets you send wake up alarm to friend directly. If you want to set an alarm that actually gets someone out of bed, PingPal is designed for those who need a more effective way to stay on track, allowing you to control exactly how your friends are alerted. By combining custom media with interactive tasks, PingPal ensures that a morning wake-up call is a shared moment rather than a solitary routine.

The Missions: Wake Up Proof

Standard alarms are too easy to ignore. PingPal Missions provide a way for friends to verify that the recipient is actually out of bed and active. After the alarm goes off, the recipient provides proof by completing one of the following tasks:

📸 Morning Selfie

The user must take a photo to prove they are up and ready.

🧍 The Pose

The app displays a specific layout that the user must mimic to prove they are alert.

💃 Dance Video

The user must record a short video of themselves dancing to get their energy moving.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work?

When you create and send an alarm, your friend receives it and it rings at the scheduled time. You can see if your friend has received or reacted to the alarm.

Can I send an alarm from iOS to Android, and vice versa?

Yes! PingPal is completely cross-platform, so it works seamlessly between iOS and Android devices.

Does it work if the phone is in silent mode?

Yes! Since PingPal acts as a system alarm, it will still ring even if the phone is in silent or do-not-disturb mode.

How can I customize the alarms?

You can customize the background (with images, videos, or GIFs), the sound (using music or a voice recording), and set interactive missions. Missions don't stop the alarm—they serve as wake-up proof!

What are the missions?

Missions include "Mimic Pose" (imitating a specific pose), "Morning Selfie" (snapping a random selfie), and "Dance Video" (recording a 10-second dance). These act as proof that your friend is actually awake.

How do I share alarms with friends?

There are two easy options: you can add them as a friend directly in the app, or send them a custom link via your favorite messaging app.

Can I send an alarm to another phone?

Yes. While native iOS and Android alarm apps do not allow this, you can use the PingPal app to send an alarm directly to another person's phone.
