Wake up peacefully with a gradual alarm, designed to wake you gently and naturally using science-backed soothing melodies and nature sounds. Perfect for light sleepers, heavy snoozers, or anyone craving a calm morning routine.
● Why it works ●
Standard alarms blast your body awake with cortisol spikes, adrenaline rushes, and that awful groggy zombie mode. Over time, this “alarm shock” can leave you anxious, foggy, restless and even craving more snacks and sugar. Wonderwake is a gentle alarm clock that uses fade-in nature sounds for a calm, gradual wake without jolts.
● What you’ll love ●
• Fade-in options: choose how slowly volume rises.
• Nature & ambient sounds: birdsongs, ocean, rain, soft chimes, etc.
• Smart Nudge backup: a safety melody at your set time to keep you on schedule.
• 1-Tap Smart Alarm: set a sleep goal; Wonderwake suggests an ideal wake-up time.
And also:
• Alarm Shuffle: gentle variety that prevents alarm fatigue.
• Sleep Schedule Coach: guidance toward consistent, better mornings.
• Health sync: works with Apple Health and popular wearables—great without them, too.
• iOS friendly: Lock Screen & Dynamic Island Live Activity for at-a-glance status.
• Privacy-first: NO account required.
• Try it for free 7 days, NO paid-trials: 7 days of alarms to feel the difference.

I would like to share my thoughts on the Wonderwake app. The feature that allows for a custom sleep duration is excellent, as it provides satisfying vibration feedback at the set time. The gentle wake-up mechanism is particularly impressive, ensuring a pleasant start to the day. Additionally, the "nudge" feature is helpful for those mornings when the alarm may not suffice. I primarily use the "surroundings" alarm sound, which is quite effective, but I appreciate the extensive library of melodies available for variety. Overall, Wonderwake has significantly changed my perception of alarms for the better.
Gentle and simple start to day!

I need to wake up in the middle of the night for a medical reason and got this app so I don’t wake up my partner and I’m not startled awake. I am so pleased! Best features are the fade-in options. Other apps let you fade in but on this one you can set the start and end volume so it doesn’t work its way up to top volume. It also has a setting where it’ll play a louder melody after a certain period of time if you don’t wake up. Nice selection of gentle music or nature sounds to wake up to.
The Alarm App You Never Knew You Needed!

The app features a clean design that delivers an exceptional user experience. I love falling asleep to nature sounds and waking up to their soothing melodies. The developer is highly responsive, consistently offering great support and valuable updates. I truly appreciate apps that make the most of all the operating system's features, and Live Activities is definitely my favorite among them. I highly recommend giving it a try!
Mornings much better

I've had a lifetime of difficulty waking up regardless of how much sleep I get. I'm finding this is helping me ease into wakefulness which is helping me wake up overall. I'd like some more variety of nature sounds, and I wish the birds sounded more like the birds I'm used to hearing in the US. And I wish the melody that plays after the alarm was less repetitive and a little more cheerful. Also wish there were more melody options, since my brain is quickly gettting used to it an allowing me to fall asleep again. But it's a good concept that hopefully they'll keep improving.

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Feedback like yours is exactly what helps the app grow in the right direction, and it truly means a lot to hear how the birds and other details feel on your side. I will definitely take this into account and work on adding more flexible options so you can tailor the wake up experience exactly the way you want it.I’m also very eager to fix everything you mentioned, because even one 3-star review can seriously affect the app’s visibility and overall success. I’d love to bring the app to a place where it feels like a five star experience for you one day. Your message already brought me closer to that.Thank you again for taking the time to write. If you ever want to reach out by email in order to talk more about choosing the right sounds for us birds, that would be great. dev@somnify.orgNick, Wonderwake developer
