Apps Alarm App

Hi everyone, I hope someone can help. This concerns an alarm that Im trying to get on my watch. I have spend over 1 year searching for an app that can perform the function that Im looking for. I have trawled every apple watch app and spend an enormous amount of research and time trying to resolve my issue

The crazy thing is that its such a seemingly simple issue ...

This is what I need: I want a way to set a vibrating alarm on my Apple watch (yes I know there are many alarm apps available including the built in one) BUT (a big but) I want the alarm to automatically turn off by itself after a set amount of time (say 5 or 10 seconds).

I dont want to have to move or do anything, I simply want the alarm to go off and then auto-stop (auto-shutoff) after a few seconds.

Sounds simple but I now believe it to be an impossible task - unless someone here can help

So I set an alarm for say 5am - at 5am the watch buzzes, and then 10 seconds later it stops vibrating - simple

Please dont reply asking why or telling me it wont wake me up as those comment are really unhelpful.

If someone can recommend how I can do this or even show me an app that can do this then I will PayPal you £50 - sounds iffy? Its not, I really need this and would honour that deal

Thank you all for your time

The closest I can think of off the top of my head wouldn't be a new app, but using Reminders to do what you need.

BUT, I don't think an event in Reminders will trigger an alarm-type reaction. More like a "ba-ding" and a popup.

I figure you've tried it already, too, so my next suggestion would be to download Xcode and try making an app of your own. If you can manage to make it work, and put it up in the App Store, you might be filling a gap and make way more than the £50 reward you're offering.

And, you can put in feedback to Apple. Who knows, maybe they'll add it to the stock app...
