About this app

🌄 Wake up gently – with a real sunrise light alarm instead of a harsh sound
Over 1 million people already start their mornings rested and calm — the way it should be. This alarm clock replaces the classic loud alarm with slowly increasing light and relax sounds — exactly what your body needs to wake up easily.

⭐ Help fall asleep – wake up gently
In the evening, the app dims the light like a sunset and plays gradually fading sounds such as rain sounds for sleep or wave sounds. You can use calm music for sleep or calm meditation. In the morning, gentle light lifts you out of sleep — before any sound starts.

☀️ Your morning routine at a glance
Right when you wake up, you see the local weather forecast with clothing suggestions, your personal birthday countdown — and if you like, you can start your day with a quick home workout.

🌅 Better sleep. Better wake-up. Every day.

Ratings and reviews

it's fine, but to get rid of ads or even have an alarm, you have to pay, lots EDIT: apparently you can have an alarm. I didn't see an option to actually have it sound off, but maybe I missed that. also, like $8 (I think) just to get rid of ads and not to get any other features is not cheap

Works wonderfully. We needed a solution for waking up in a basement bedroom. This app slowly brightens the room as if day was dawning, naturally. Then birds start signaling the morning. It's great when we are traveling in motel rooms as well. No jarring obnoxious alarm clock noise. There are several options if you prefer a loud wakeup sound. We have used the free version for over 5 yrs. There are many options we have yet to explore. This app is a must!

I've been using this app for about 8+ years now and I like how it wakes me up with gentle natural sounds, like waves or birds (among other options). its a much nicer way to wake up than being startled awake and getting an unnecessary large surge of cortisol with typical alarms. I also like that you can choose specific days of the week, week days, weekends, etc. the alarms are very customizable. I would definitely recommend this app to others, and I have many times to friends and family.
