SnoozeWar is a sleep-wake enforcement app for Android, live on <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="break-all link-break text-gray-500 hover:underline" href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.snoozewar.app">Google Play</a> in 176 countries. It fixes your whole sleep-wake cycle rather than just waking you up.<h3>What it does</h3>- Mornings — escape-resistant wake-up missions and a watchdog that won't let you drift back to sleep- Nights — a bedtime app blocker and screen-time limits that cut off whatever is keeping you up- In between — passive sleep tracking and a running sleep-debt figure, so a bad week is visible instead of vague<h3>Why it exists</h3>Most sleep and screen-time tools are one tap from being ignored. SnoozeWar closes the easy escape routes, so the habit has a chance to hold.<h3>How it's built</h3>React Native on top, with a native Kotlin enforcement layer underneath — exact alarms, a foreground service that owns playback and volume, accessibility-based app blocking, and passive sleep detection through Android's Sleep API. Raw sleep data never leaves the device.Built solo, end to end: product design, the app, the native layer, the backend, privacy and Play compliance, the store listing and the marketing.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="break-all link-break text-gray-500 hover:underline" href="https://snoozewar.com">snoozewar.com</a> · <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="break-all link-break text-gray-500 hover:underline" href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.snoozewar.app">Google Play</a>
