Akaru: Alarm Clock & Calendar
Wake Up for Shifts & Workdays
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
No more setting alarms every night.
Set your rules for days of the week and holidays once. Akaru wakes you at the right time each morning.
For important mornings, use Serious Alarm. You have to walk to stop it: the alarm rings at intervals until you reach your step goal.
--- Does this sound familiar? ---
Checking tomorrow's shift before bed and resetting your alarm.
Changing the time depending on whether you work at the office or at home.
Occasionally forgetting, and oversleeping.
If you wake at different times each day, ordinary alarm apps only offer weekly repeats.
You still have to check every night or keep lots of alarms and switch them on and off.
It's a hassle. Forget, and you're late.
--- Set your rules once. Akaru takes care of the rest ---
“Monday–Friday at 6:30, weekends at 8:00, holidays off.”
Set that once, and each day's alarm is chosen automatically.
Then just open the calendar.
See exactly which days have alarms this month and at what time, displayed as numbers.
Instead of colored dots or badges, you see the actual time: “6:30,” “8:00,” or “OFF.”
Check at a glance, and rest easy.
--- Key features ---

[ Walk to wake up with Serious Alarm ]

• Parents whose drop-off and pick-up times for their children vary by weekday
• Anyone tired of resetting alarms every night
