Wake up to something worth listening to.
Podcast Alarm replaces your boring alarm tone with the podcast you love. Set an alarm, pick a podcast or build a queue of episodes, and wake up to real content instead of a blaring buzzer.
How it works
Set your alarm time and choose what plays — a specific podcast (always the latest episode) or the next episode in your queue. When the alarm fires, your podcast starts playing. If you're offline, episodes are pre-downloaded so playback is instant.
Features
• Podcast alarm — wake up to your favourite podcast, any day, any time
• Skip intro — automatically skip the first 15–120 seconds of every episode
• Autoplay queue — line up episodes and they play back-to-back across alarm days
• Search thousands of podcasts by name, topic, or host
• Discover new shows through curated collections
• Variable playback speed from 0.5x to 2.0x
• Pre-download episodes so your alarm works offline
• Nightstand mode — a minimal bedside clock display
• Set multiple alarms for different times of day
• Reliable delivery via AlarmKit, even when the app is closed
Whether it's your morning alarm, your gym reminder, or your wind-down routine — start it with a podcast.

Sleek and Intuitive Alternative to Everyday Alarms

It’s quick to setup an alarm and easy to search for your favourite podcasts. I like how it can also act as a podcast player if you want to use it that way.

Thanks for the review, I appreciate it!
Limited functionality

I was hoping this would be able to tee up multiple daily playlists in a particular order for my alarm and play them consecutively. I have a few daily podcasts I like and want to wake up to them in the same order every day. Instead it only plays one and sometimes it plays the previous day for some reason…for a paid app, I was expecting more functionality.
Fab!

Less annoying to wake up to than my regular alarm

Glad to hear it ;)
Reliability fixes for alarms not playing audio, plus a fix for queue items being removed when an alarm fails to start.
