Feature description
I think it would be helpful if math problems were added as a barrier to dimissing alarms. Users could specify the number of problems and the difficulty of them
Why do you want this feature?
This feature would greatly increase the effectiveness of waking someone up I believe

Or maybe just get more sleep ;-) Don't get me wrong, it's an interesting idea, but I'm not sure how many people would really use it. Personally, I would prefer that Fossify apps stay simple and avoid feature creep.
I agree with @chesio. I have tried those alarms for a couple of months and it wasn't a great couple of months. Sleep deprivation is not good. EDIT: Read "Why we sleep".
For me it is also a good function, I don't find it hard to get up but others do and this is useful for them.
I would love to see similar features implemented as well. I'd prefer scanning a bar code over a math problem, (it insures I can't dismiss the alarm without taking my medication) but anything to prevent me from shutting the alarm off and going back to sleep would be helpful.
