I have two different devices which I set about 5 alarms on each device to go off at various times and using different alarm tones for each.
One of them, or at least a combination of both gets me up usually.

The rest of the time, either my internal clock wakes me up, or my dog wakes me up to go outside.

I use an alarm set to 06:00, but the Marshmallow update to my Android phone killed all alarm apps and they never fire 
But even when they do, I just hit Dismiss and go back to sleep... until my poor wife wakes me up at 07:00 and then I rush, rush, rush.
Maybe I should install I Can't Wake Up[^] again.

Yes, but there is another reason that you must do to the bed early and you dont need to have alarms in life, you wake up early in the morning but for developers there is exceptional case and all of you aware about it. agreed ?

I picked the option that I always use an alarm and that's true but I also don't sleep.
I got a lovely little one year old to keep me awake.

I find generally that I am waking up around a consistent time each day. Also when there is a special event my internal clock seems to kick before the alarm does.
frustrating because I could probably sleep longer if I woke up to the alarm clock.

Same with me, when ever I have some special event, I always wake up before the alarm and will stop it

ha ha. same..

- My wife's internal body clock works like a charm, and she gets me up.
- Our cats get us up on schedule, early, every elephanting day, weekdays and weekends.

I like to take a nap most days after work, because I love feeling refreshed when I wake up. Unfortunately, if I do not set my alarm to wake up at 8 or 9 PM, I sometimes sleep through until 2 AM or even later.
I hope I'm not getting old!

I normally set my alarm, but am up somewhat in advance of it.
However, there are nights (last night happened to be one) where I'm puzzling over a problem/pissed off at co-workers/whatever that I wake up in the middle of the night and spend significant time mulling over something.
At some point during the night, I'll shut off the alarm, hoping to sleep in and get some decent rest when I finally do fall back asleep.
Slept four minutes later than the alarm would've went off today. Sigh.

I'll use a clock if I have an early flight and perhaps in the hotel before business meetings. I debated about answering occasionally,but I felt it's not often enough for that option (subjective feel).
Anyway, with a wife, two children and two cats, along with my internal alarm, I don't need an alarm on a typical day. When I do use an alarm, I prefer the 'wake to music' type.

I don't wake up, with alarm, with people shouting around me, with people calling me on my phone 3-5 times, with TV being watched at full volume or anything that may cause disturbance to you.
Simply, I wake up when I have to. I'm a king of my life, alarms can't rule me.

is that a welcome call for The Alarms to come over to your kingdom and rule you?

That was a limited time offer.

Waking up when you have to isn't being king of your life.
Waking up when you want to is...

I don't wake up to go to my job, I wake up to go and have a cup of tea. That is what I have to wake up for.

Since my kids started school my body clock has kicked in to awaken me before a set time 0730hrs! Do any other parents have the same enforced body clock regiment?
|
|
|
|
|
Indeed. And in a case of exhaustive periods, kids themselves act like a backup alarm, as they come to my bed 5 mins later

I have no problem to wake at 7:30, the problem is that the school bus leaves at 7:00 
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.
