I want an alarm clock that can play my music from spotify to wake me up (playlist/specific song per day/one song)

I want good audio naturally and an always on clock display so I dont have to fumble around at night to see the time.

Is it a thing? I can't use my phone as I am not allowed to keep my phone in my room.

phone out of service?

give us a call.

That's too bad. Is an iPod touch still a thing? 

Or you could get an arduino with an audio sd card shield and a display. But you would need buttons to program the alarm time and the current time once. Or you hard code it in the setup routine. 

 

And depending on why you are not allowed to have your phone in your room, an "annoying" alarm clock might be forbidden too. So you should talk to your parents? first.

I just found one! The "beddi" smart alarm clock. Thoughts?

The reason I can't keep my phone in my room is just so I don't start my day with my phone and use it before bed. Just a general healthy habit 😄

It should for now. Basically as long as the app and services stay online it will be able to do so according to what it can do.

huh... seems like less of a product that would be reliable and good than a random gimmicky smart device.
