Football doesn't fit neatly into your week
The NFL schedule is spread all over the calendar. There are Thursday night games after work, Sunday games in several windows from early afternoon into the night, and Monday night games when you're already thinking about Tuesday. Keeping track of which game is on when, and remembering to turn it on, is harder than it sounds.
Then life gets in the way. You're cooking dinner, running errands or putting the kids to bed, and by the time you check, your team is already down two scores. Or you only wanted to catch the 4th quarter of a close game, and you looked up just in time for the final whistle.
International games come early. When a game is played in London or somewhere else abroad, it can kick off early in the morning in the US. Set a Pre-Start alarm the night before and Sports Alarm will get you up in time, using your phone's local time.
How it works in 3 steps

Built for football fans
Sports Alarm does one job: making sure you don't miss the moments you care about.
Kickoff, halftime, final
Pre-Start, Half Time and Game Final alarms for any NFL game, plus quarter alerts for Q1 to Q4 and overtime.
Loud enough to notice
A loud, persistent alarm, not a quiet notification that gets lost on your lock screen. It will wake you for an early international game.
Works in the background
Our servers monitor the game and push alerts to your phone, so the app doesn't need to stay open.
Favorites
Save your teams so their games are easy to find every week of the season.
Live scores
Check live scores in the app, and on your Apple Watch if you wear one.
12 languages
Use the app in the language you're most comfortable with.
Sundays with more than one game
On a busy Sunday you might care about an early game, a late-afternoon game and the night game. Set alarms for each one and Sports Alarm will tell you when every kickoff is close, so you can step away between windows without losing track.
Not just football Sundays
The same alarms work across the rest of your sports calendar. Sports Alarm also covers:

NFL FAQ
What NFL alarms can I set?
Three types: Pre-Start, about 15 minutes before kickoff; Half Time; and Game Final, when the game ends. Turn on any combination for any game.
