sup! welcome to Mascot (formerly mastco/matco) — it's basically this evil open-source alarm app I made that literally forces you out of bed. if you're the type to snooze 50 times and end up late to everything, you kinda need this.
Mascot makes you do annoying stuff like solving math problems, scanning random QR codes, or even walking to your bathroom to take a picture of your sink just to turn off the alarm. the AI object detection is all on-device so it's super fast and doesn't steal your data.
- Invincible Mode: it uses Device Administrator privileges so you literally can't uninstall the app while the alarm is blasting. nice try though.
- Anti Power-Off: leverages Accessibility Services to block you from turning off or restarting your phone when the alarm goes off. you are trapped.
- 4 Wake-up Challenges:
- Math: solve basic to hardcore math equations.
- Puzzles: a lot of fun puzzles which actually forces your brain to get out of that unconcious state
- QR Code: print a QR code, stick it in your bathroom, and go scan it to shut the alarm up.
- Flashbang: literally blinds you with a bright flashing screen (you can double-tap to dismiss if you're weak).
- AI Object Detection: forces you to get out of bed and take a picture of a random object (like a chair, toothbrush, grass, or even your cat).
- Predictive Back Gestures & Minimalist UI: built with Jetpack Compose Material 3, squishy cards, custom mascot icons, and a super clean dark mode.
- Strict Mode: locks down your alarm settings so you can't cheat and change the time 5 minutes before it rings.
oh, and if you hate oversleeping and actually find this app useful, dropping a star on the repo would be sick.

I built this thing using some pretty cool stuff:
- Kotlin & Jetpack Compose: all the UI is modern and smooth (the cards even get squishy when you press them).
- Google ML Kit: handles all the on-device AI for object detection (like recognizing your toothbrush) and QR scanning offline!
- Room Database: saves your alarms locally.
- Coroutines & Services: keeps the alarm and timers running perfectly in the background so you can't escape it.
if you wanna mess with the code or build it yourself, it's super easy.
- clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/Hotaro26/Mascot.git cd Mascot - open the project in Android Studio (or whatever you use).
- let Gradle sync all the dependencies.
- hit the run button or build an APK from the command line:
./gradlew assembleDebug
- install the APK on your phone and try not to throw it at a wall when the alarm goes off.
wanna add a new feature or fix a bug? bet. i'm totally down for pull requests.
- fork the repo.
- create a new branch (
git checkout -b feature/your-cool-idea). - make your changes and commit them.
- push to your fork and open a PR.
just make sure your code isn't super messy and you're good to go.
