Inner Light is an alarm that opens into a morning. At the hour you choose, your phone plays a melody you have not heard before — through Silent mode and Sleep Focus, because it is a real alarm. What it opens into is not a snooze button. THE FIRST MINUTE ASKS FOR NOTHING The screen comes up from near-black to dawn while a calm voice says four things, none of them an instruction. Good morning. There's no hurry. Let your eyes open when they want to. Nothing is measured, nothing is timed, and nothing can be failed. Waking takes fifteen to thirty minutes and no app shortens it, so this one keeps you company instead. THEN IT ASKS FOR ONE SMILE That is the whole of it. The bell draws away when you smile, and the morning is done. You can go and have your day. AND THE PRACTICE WAITS Your breath and your waking pulse are offered afterwards, with a Later beside them. Six minutes, whenever you want them — or not at all. The thing that insists asks for the least; what asks for more cannot insist. TEN TRADITIONS, 250 PRACTICES Reiki, the hands-on Japanese practice. Pranayama, the breath. Qigong, slow movement. Bhavana, cultivating the mind. Hatha, postures and long holds. Nada Yoga, sound and listening. Löyly, heat and cold. Nidra, sleep and deep rest. Shinrin-yoku, light and slow attention. Notes to Self, the Stoic journal brought up to date. A MONTH OF YOUR OWN MORNINGS Each morning is one line: your waking pulse, and that you were there. A month of them reads as a shape — one you begin to recognise. A waking pulse moves with sleep, a late meal, a cold coming on; this is for noticing your own shape over weeks, and it is not a medical measurement. HONEST BY DESIGN Traditional practices are named as traditional. Evidence-based ones cite their sources inside the app. Practices involving cold, heat, breath retention or movement carry plain safety notes. Nothing here treats or cures anything, and none of it replaces care from a health professional. PRIVATE BY DESIGN The smile is read on your device and the frame discarded. The pulse reads light through a fingertip and keeps only the number. One practice listens for your out-breath and measures loudness alone — no audio is recorded or sent anywhere. Your history stays on your phone. No account, no sign-up, no tracking. FREE AND PAID Every tradition keeps one practice free, forever — ten in all, and the morning offers you a different one each day. The alarm, the morning and your calendar of mornings are free and stay free. Unlock a single tier for its traditions, or All-Access for all 250 practices, every soundscape and your full history.

The alarm is the app now, and the morning it opens into is much gentler. A melody instead of a bell — five notes you could hum. A first minute that asks for nothing at all: the screen comes up from near-black to dawn while a voice keeps you company. Then one smile, and the alarm is done. Already up? "I'm up" is there from the first second. Your breath and your pulse are offered afterwards, with a Later beside them. Stopped it from the lock screen? It comes back a few times over eight minutes, then lets go. Your mornings now count. Today shows how many you have had, and tapping it opens the month. The morning can be switched off — a toggle on the schedule screen, for a day off or a weekend away. A different free practice each day, drawn from all ten traditions. Also: the pulse reader always has a way out now, and the app says plainly when the camera is off.
