About this app

Wake up to the sound of nature with the Woodland Alarm Clock. Rise gently to a Northern Cardinal's cheerful song, the sound of gently falling rain, or a Canadian Loon's otherworldly wail. Or, become wide awake to the punctuated territorial calls of the Pileated Woodpecker.

A woodland scene of your choice slowly brightens, simulating a transition from night to day. Meanwhile the bird song gradually intensifies, bringing you reliably to wakefulness without a startling jolt.

- 25 alarm tones of birdsongs and other nature sounds, some loud, some soft
- 45 pictures of beautiful forest scenery
- Check your next alarm at-a-glance with optional Widgets and Notifications
- Wake-up light alarm simulates the morning sunrise

Dozens of bird songs and backgrounds are included, but if you want, you can choose music and pictures from your own media library.

- Learn to identify common birds by song
- Experience the sights and sounds of nature when you're stuck indoors
- Cats and dogs love it!

All photographs were taken by the author, and most are taken in Minnesota parks.

Ratings and reviews

It is really great if you don't mind annoying, ugly ads popping up non-stop while you're trying to look at a beautiful photo of mother nature. And be careful not to accidentally tap on the ad -- it'll be much worse. With any app, but particularly one like this, you would think there would be a paid version so you don't have to deal with the non-stop horrible ads, but I haven't been able to find one, so I'll uninstall. An app that would get an A+, goes to an F-.

Update. Keeps turning off my day alarm after hitting wake. Mon 4am now not active. I was wondering why days were unsetting themselves. Each day does it. Send email message but it doesnt give destination on auto feedback. Orginal. Great alarm. But no way to pause alarm for the day without having to turn that day off completely for upcoming alarms. Has fade in volume so starts soft and wont scare you. You set volume start and final volume level. Loon is my pick. No days off scheduled either.

I was really excited about this idea because I love birds & nature & I have problems with waking up, but the bird sound hardly fades-in at all even though it's set to 30 seconds, & it becomes too loud very quickly even though I turned down the Default Maximum Volume (that made no difference). I tried to contact the creator but both ways for contacting him didn't work. I just got a pop-up that said "Copy" with nothing to copy & no way to write or send a message. Would love to have it fixed! 🙂
