Wake up clear. Not groggy.
PowNap helps you wake up at the right moment by tracking your recovery.
Instead of forcing you awake with a random timer, PowNap watches your heart rate and wakes you when your body feels ready.
Less grogginess.
Less guessing.
Better naps.

No fixed timer.
PowNap monitors your recovery and wakes you when your body appears ready.
