Red Bull Alert 1.1.0

Motivate your wake-up with the Red Bull Alert app for Android devices
Mornings can be a drag for even the most upbeat person, especially if it's a week day and we're really tired. Some of us would trade anything for a couple of more minutes in bed.

Fortunately, there are many applications that could help with your morning reluctance to get up. One of such applications is Red Bull Alert. It's quite useful especially if you're a sports fan and need some motivation to get out of bed.

Intuitive UI with lots of features at hand

The app launches with a presentation on all the neat things that you can find inside. It's not quite a tutorial, as it doesn't show you how to access tools but it does have animation and adds up to the app's nice style.

The first thing that you need to do after launching the app is to login with your social account. Pick between Google, Twitter or Facebook to get instant registration without having to type in your information.

However, it takes quite some time to register so you'll have to patient for a couple of minutes. In addition, the app seems to crash after you register with whichever social account and you'll have to reinstall it and skip registration to make it work.

Get motivated to wake up

The motto behind this app is Beat the snooze!, and you'll be seeing it quite a lot when using the app. You can use one of the predefined alarms inside the app or create one of your own.

Add a label, time, snooze frequency and pick a theme. You can pick from multiple themes inside the app, like aerial sports, formula 1, rally, skateboarding, snowboarding, surfing and more. Each theme comes with its very own music and nice pictures in a slideshow.

Get stats

The app calculates how many times you've dismissed the alarm clock, total duration in seconds and displays your average wake up. Registration with a social account would get you access to your friends stats, but don't try it since the app crashes.

You can have the app provide you with reminders for setting up alarms, push notifications of all sorts or the option to share the app on social networks. The app doesn't come with a widget for the home screen although it would have been really useful and make it easier for users to set up alarms for the next day.
