Straight answers about iPhone alarms, camera counting, privacy, frequency, and safety.
What is a push-up alarm app?
A push-up alarm app connects a scheduled alert to an exercise session. Grow Arms opens the matching challenge, uses the iPhone camera to count accepted reps on device, and records whether the planned set was completed.

Grow Arms is built for that commitment flow: answer the alarm, open the linked set, and complete the target. You can always use iOS system controls when you need to stop.
Learn how the alarm-to-workout flow worksHow can I stop snoozing my iPhone alarm?
Protect enough sleep first, keep a consistent schedule, move the phone out of easy reach, and make the first action specific. A movement-based commitment alarm can add friction, but it cannot replace adequate sleep or address a medical cause of persistent difficulty waking.
Learn more about reducing snooze habitsCan I schedule push-up reminders throughout the day?
Yes. Choose active weekdays and several workout times, then review the scheduled sessions. Start with a frequency and rep target you can recover from before adding more alarms.
Learn how to build a push-up reminder scheduleHow does Grow Arms count push-ups with the iPhone camera?
The app analyzes live frames on the iPhone and accepts a rep after the expected top-down-top movement cycle. Phone placement, lighting, clothing, framing, and pace can affect recognition; it is not a medical form assessment.
Learn about camera-assisted push-up countingDoes Grow Arms record or upload camera video?
No workout video is uploaded or stored by default. Camera frames are processed on the device for rep counting.
Learn more about on-device camera privacyHow many push-ups should a beginner do per day?
There is no universal number. Start below your current maximum, preserve controlled technique, allow recovery, and adjust from repeated sessions rather than chasing a headline total.
Learn how to choose a personal daily targetShould I do push-ups every day or every other day?
Either can fit, depending on effort, total volume, recovery, and experience. Every other day is a clear beginner rhythm; daily practice should stay lower effort and should never override recovery needs.
Compare daily and alternate-day schedulesWhat should I do if exercising is painful or unsafe?
Stop. Use the safety exit when pain, dizziness, injury, illness, driving, or the environment makes a push-up set unsafe. A streak or alarm is never more important than safety.
Learn how to start with a conservative planDoes a Grow Arms alarm work in Silent Mode or Focus?
Grow Arms uses Apple’s AlarmKit and asks for alarm permission during setup. Alarms are designed to stay prominent through Silent Mode and Focus, though iPhone settings and system conditions can affect their behavior.
