Do you still use an alarm clock? As in a separate device? Or do you use your phone now?

I personally use an alarm clock which is pretty old but I absolutely love it! It projects the time on the ceiling, even though I never use it! :p
 
I have an alarm clock so I can see time easily if I wake up middle of night/too early etc. But my alarm to get up is on my phone
 
Phone, but I'm thinkin of getting one of those alarm clocks that has a funky flying/driving thing so I can't actually use the snooze button and am forced to get up.
 
I use both, mainly because I could sleep through a riot inside my bedroom and not realise it had happened. I have literally slept through smoke alarms going off outside my room with my door open !
 
A separate device as I've had mine for years. Plus Ive had times I've come in from a night out and my phone has died or I forgot to charge it.
 
Phone. Leave it on charge overnight which also helps if there's a power cut. Haven't used a proper alarm clock for ages. Although If I was going to get an alarm clock it would be something like:

Bedside alarm clock plus my mobile alarm clock for waking in the mornings.
I'll always have a bedside alarm clock, just for quickly checking the time.
 
I use an Alarm Clock at my dads and my phone at my mums. Phone is easier to snooze as it's right next to me... alarm clock is on top of my tv so I HAVE to get out of bed to turn it off.
 
Both, with a 5 minute gap. My radio alarm clock gently wakes me up before my blaring phone alarm clock gets me out of bed!
 
I've had situations where my mobile phone didn't go off for one reason or another. They're too complicated to be 100% reliable... which is why I have four alarms of one kind or another set to go off five minutes after each other.

The first usually does the job, but if there's one thing I hate more than getting up, it's getting up late and having to rush. It's a pain when the clock's change though. :-)
 
Atomic alarm clock on my bedside table. Has two alarms settings and I prefer it to the smartphone. There is another on the other bedside table just to make sure if it is important.
