Threshold

About, not at. Threshold is a minimalist alarm clock for Android and Desktop that replaces rigid, to-the-minute alarms with flexible time windows. Its core feature, Random Window mode, lets you define a range (for example, 07:00-07:30) and rings at a random moment within it.

Release Versioning

Use the interactive release TUI to update phone and Wear versions in one flow:

pnpm version:release

What it updates:

• apps/threshold/src-tauri/tauri.conf.json (version)
• apps/threshold-wear/build.gradle.kts (versionName + versionCode)
• Optional: apps/threshold/package.json (version)

TUI shortcuts:

• h or ? for help
• q to quit
• Version step: 1/p patch, 2/m minor, 3/M major, 4/c custom
• Version step: ←/→ (or mouse wheel) to cycle bump options, Enter/left click/middle click to confirm
• Review step: a apply, b back/restart
• Review step: right click (or mouse back button) maps to back when available

TUI behaviour:

• Uses an alternate screen buffer and restores the terminal on exit
• Handles terminal resize events and redraws to the new dimensions
• Ignores non-action escape sequences (for example, unsupported mouse events)
