9. Available alarms do not serve the purpose of waking us up :
Existing Approach
-- Default feature of shutting off the alarm after 1 minute. .
-- Snooze feature fuels our sleep!
-- The button to shut the alarm tone is easily accessible, due to
which the person switches off the alarm with ease and keeps on
sleeping.
-- The current lifestyle is such that people have started working
late till night and have to wake up early in the morning. The
current alarms don’t satisfy their needs. Hence, Walk ‘n Wake!

10. Working and Feasibility
-- Using Motion Sensor Tracking and GPS (Global Positional
System) , user can also keep track at the speed at which he
is walking.
-- Can know the distance he has walked as well the distance
left to be covered.
-- The app also covers the extra feature that the user can
always start the timer/accelerometer during his workout
sessions, can keep track of all his workout routine without
actually using the alarm feature.
-- The reminder can be stopped without the need of walking
up to the distance set.

11. IRRITATING!
Possible Problems..?
The first thing that most of the people complain about is that
this app can be irritating, but we believe that this is not the
case. The sole purpose of this app is to wake up the people.
We know, in some situations how important it is to wake up
at time, and when we are not able to do so, we have the
feeling of guilt and agony of missing the valuable time.
The following case studies will reflect the importance of this
app. This app has a immense potential to be a huge hit, if
properly launched.
CAUTION! : This app is not for the people who set up
alarm (of early morning) just for the sake of it, without really
the need of it.

12. There was a boy named Amrit Gupta, who hailed from a small town but
came to New Delhi to study for IIT-JEE. He lived in a small hostel all alone,
and is worked very hard to qualify in the entrance examination for JEE. One
day before the exam, he woke up late till night to revise his subjects. Now,
he slept early in the morning at 5-6am. His exam was scheduled to be at
9am. Now, since he lived alone and he was a deep sleeper, no one was
Case Study 1
there to wake him up. His alarm clock ranged, but unconsciously he
switched it off and continued sleeping. His missed the exam which could
have changed his life forever. That particular day, it was very important for
him to wake up. If he would have been using ‘Walk ‘n Wake’, his life might
have taken a turn in a right direction.

13. Name : Aditya Malhotra
Case Study 2
Employee : Manager of a big MNC (like Samsung)
He’s a workaholic person who usually works late till night. His boss told him
one day that he’ll be having a meeting (video-conference) with a client in
Australia, that too early in the morning. He came home around 1am, and his
meeting was supposed to be at 10am Australian Standard Time, which
means 5.30am IST. Now, either he could have remained awake for 4.30
hours or could have slept. Second being the wise option which most of the
people will take, and will try to be fresh by the time of the meeting. He also
chose to sleep, but couldn’t manage to wake up at the time of the meeting.
His alarm in the phone kept beeping, and he just kept putting it on snooze
unconsciously. Again, this shows that how important it becomes to wake up
at proper time in some situations. Our app caters this need of the people. It
actually wakes them up when they want to.
