Frequently asked questions

How do I turn off my alarm?

When your alarm goes off, the only way to silence it is to tap your phone to your Tapp Dock. The trick is that your dock lives in a different room — the kitchen, the bathroom, wherever you set it — so you have to physically get up and walk there to turn it off. No snoozing from bed, no rolling over. You're up and moving before you can talk yourself out of it.

Is this a subscription?

Nope. Tapp is a one-time purchase of $34.99. You get the NFC dock and the free companion app with no monthly fees and no hidden charges, ever.

Is Tapp only for waking up?

Not at all. Tapp works anywhere you need a push to actually go do something. Put your dock in your home gym and the alarm won't stop until you walk in and tap it — so you're already there, no excuses. Drop it in your gym bag before you leave the house. Set it in your study, the laundry room, wherever the task lives. Because the only way to silence it is to physically go to the dock, Tapp turns "I'll do it later" into "I'm already here."

Do I need to charge my Tapp Dock?

Never. Your Tapp Dock requires no batteries, no charging, and no cables. It works the moment you unbox it and keeps working forever — just place it and go.

What's included?

Your Tapp Dock arrives in premium packaging, ready to use right out of the box. Pair it with the free Tapp Alarm app and you're set — no batteries, no charging, nothing else to buy.

Is my phone compatible?

Almost certainly, yes. Tapp works with virtually all iPhone and Android phones from the last several years — both iOS and Android are fully supported. A quick rule of thumb: if your phone can make contactless payments like Apple Pay or Google Pay, it works with Tapp. Just download the free app, set your alarm, and tap the dock.

How is this different from my phone's built-in alarm?

Your built-in alarm lets you snooze or swipe it off without ever leaving bed. Tapp makes that impossible. The alarm keeps going until you walk over and tap the dock, so you're up and moving before you can talk yourself back to sleep.

Where should I put the dock?

In a different room from where you sleep — that's the whole point. The kitchen or bathroom works great, since you can't reach them without getting out of bed. The magnetic base locks it onto any metal surface so it stays exactly where you set it. And it's not just for mornings — put it in your home gym, your study, or your gym bag, and the only way to shut off the alarm is to go where you're supposed to be.
