I just use the clock app with no dock next to my bed. After a few months I manage to learn how to turn my alarm off in my sleep. So I have to move my phone across the room so I don't oversleep haha.
 
I never used to until we had a power cut a few months ago which made me late for work as my plug in radio failed, now I use the default alarm as my main wake up call.
 
I use it as a back-up alarm to my alarm clock in case I hit the snooze to many times. To many issues over the years for me to rely on it solely.
