Peal: Alarm for Appointments

Rings through Silent and Focus

Free · In‑App Purchases

New in Peal: a widget shows what rings next, and an hour before an alarm a countdown appears on the Lock Screen. Peal turns appointments you cannot miss into alarms. The alarm rings through Silent mode and Focus, and it does not stop until you confirm it. What rings and what stays quiet is free to set: per calendar, per keyword, per participant, per appointment, plus lead time and quiet hours. WHY A NOTIFICATION IS NOT ENOUGH Calendar notifications are quiet by design. They arrive while the device is face down, during a Focus session, or in a stack of twenty others. For most appointments that is fine. For the call with your customer, the doctor, the interview, it is not. THE CALENDARS YOU ALREADY HAVE iCloud, Google, Outlook, Exchange, work accounts: whatever your iPhone already syncs. No new login, no account with us, no server, none of your appointments on someone else's machine. Your calendar is read on the device. YOU DECIDE WHAT RINGS Per calendar: let work ring, leave the family calendar quiet. Per keyword: anything with "interview" or a particular name. Per participant: by name or email address. One appointment at a time, with a switch on the row. Switch one on by hand, and the next one with that title rings too. Repeating appointments: this date, or the whole series. All of that is free. LEAD TIME AND QUIET HOURS Set how long before the start it should ring. Quiet hours keep the night silent. THE NEXT ALARM ON THE LOCK SCREEN A widget shows what rings next, on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen. An hour before an alarm, a countdown appears on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. "Don't ring" switches an alarm off right there. ON YOUR WRIST AND ON IPAD The alarm rings on a paired Apple Watch too, with no second app to install. Peal runs on iPhone and iPad. BUILT TO KEEP UP Peal notices appointments added while it was closed and re-checks itself overnight on the charger. A Shortcut keeps it current even if you never open the app. WHAT PEAL DID Once an appointment has passed, the log says whether the alarm rang, whether you confirmed it, or which rule kept it quiet. If none was ever set, it says that too. PRIVACY No analytics. No crash SDK. No network requests of Peal's own. Nothing is collected. PEAL PLUS Smart alarms. Apple Intelligence, on your device, works out what kind of appointment it is. Blocks of time, visits and information stay quiet, and an appointment your keywords missed can still ring. With smart alarms, travel rings 2 hours ahead and appointments on site 45 minutes ahead. A title, a person or a kind of appointment you keep switching off stays quiet. A different alarm tone, and its own tone per calendar, so you know what it is without looking. Pause every alarm until a date you choose, or pause a single calendar. A lead time per calendar: 5 minutes for work, 30 for private. Weekdays per calendar, so the work calendar rings Monday to Friday only. Ring for repeating appointments only, or for one-off ones only. Ring again, a second button on the alarm that pushes it back a few minutes. A lead time for one appointment, for this date or the whole series. Only vibrate when an alarm falls inside another appointment. Requires iOS 26. Runs on iPhone and iPad.

NEXT ALARMS ON THE LOCK SCREEN A widget shows what rings next, and an hour before an alarm a countdown appears on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. "Don't ring" switches an alarm off right there. FEWER SWITCHES TO SET Switch an appointment on or off by hand, and Peal treats the next one with that title the same way. Over time, the same goes for a person or a kind of appointment. ONE ALARM FOR THE SAME TIME Appointments whose alarms fall on the same minute ring as one alarm that names them all. TRAVEL RINGS EARLIER With smart alarms, travel rings 2 hours ahead and appointments on site 45 minutes ahead. The alarm then says when they start. ONLY VIBRATE DURING APPOINTMENTS An alarm that falls inside another appointment you are in only vibrates. Switch it on in Settings under Tone. MORE Tap the card at the top of Today to open its appointment. Many other improvements.
