    I use my cell phone because I fall asleep to VERY quiet classical music on my clock/radio/alarm clock and when the alarm goes off in the morning, it is at the same volume as what I drifted off to.

    Both. I use cell phone for special events and alarm clock to wake up in the morning.

    Both.

    My routine to make sure I get up for work (I am a sleep deprived teenager,yes) is to set all 5 alarms on my phone for various times from the earliest i want to wake up to the latest. If I need to be at work by 11am, I set an alarms for 8,8:30, 9, 9:30, and 10. I put an annoying ringer on. Then, I set like 5 or 6 events with alarms in the calender of my phone, for various times. This one has a voice telling me to check my schedule. My phone is always loud and annoying and right next to my pillow.

    Then, I set my actual alarm clock for an ideal time like 9am. usually, I set it for like 2 minutes after my cell phone alarm, so I can't fall back asleep. And I put it across the room.

    And sometimes, if I know I will be extra tired and i have to wake up really early, I tell a friend or two to call me repeatedly until I wake up.

    And I leave a note for whoever wakes up first in my house to drag me out of bed if I don't wake up.

    And occasionally, I put on my stereo alarm clock at the loudest it will go and blare "We will rock you" which shakes the house to the point where I can't possibly fall back asleep and I have to wake up to turn it off.

    It's complicated, but it works.

    Cell phone! I wouldn't waste my money on an alarm clock. I can wake up to my favorite songs instead of an annoying alarm sound. I love my phone...

    Yes. I have an alarm clock but the alarm isn't loud enough so I use my cell phone instead.

    Yes, I use my phone for an alarm clock.

    For school, I also use a regular alarm clock just in case.

    Yes I do actually. I have a real alarm clock somewhere in my room but I much rather would use my phone.
