A new way up, and an alarm that's harder than ever to beat. SHAKE TO WAKE A new mission: shake the phone hard for a few seconds to earn the silence. Nothing to squint at, nothing to solve from under the covers — just move until you're up. Set it easy, medium, or hard. YOUR CALL ON THE VOLUME New in Settings: choose how loud the alarm is while you work the mission – full, turned down, or silent. Leave the app and it snaps back to full, so it's never a way out. STUBBORN AS EVER A big reliability pass: alarms ring through a force-quit, a volume-button press, and a lock mid-mission – and an edited alarm re-arms the second you hit Save. If it's set, it goes off. Important improvements to prevent you bypassing solving the mission ;) Earn the silence.

• A warmer, more personal setup that builds your first alarm for you • Calmer nights with Drift bedtime soundscapes • Sharper, more reliable mornings • Polish and fixes throughout

This update makes Rizen smoother to set up. • Smarter photo mission. Snap your reference shot and Rizen recognizes it — the made bed, a coffee mug, the window — and names it for you. Change the name anytime. • You can't out-wait it. Open the alarm and just sit there? It lifts back to full volume and keeps the pressure on until you're actually up. • Calmer where it counts. Re-rings no longer come back at full blast while you're mid-mission, and your lock screen stays clean overnight. • Bug fixes Earn the silence.

Drift is here – the calm side of Rizen. DRIFT – a sleep soundscape Layer rain, tides, a stream, and warm noise into a mix that's yours. Set a fade-out timer, lock your phone, and Drift plays you down, then goes quiet on its own. 17 NEW ALARM SOUNDS From gentle first-light tones to no-mercy klaxons for the heaviest sleepers – preview any of them while you set an alarm. LITTLE THINGS The time wheels loop now (59 -> 00 in one nudge), and the mission you pick during setup carries into your first alarm. Earn the silence.
