Wake gradually with calming sounds, sleep mode audio, Live Activities, snooze, repeat schedules, and an optional loud failsafe.
Gentle Alarm helps you wake up more calmly by fading your alarm sound in gradually instead of jolting you awake.
Create one-time or repeating alarms, choose from calming sounds, and set how long the volume should take to rise. Sleep Mode can play quiet bundled brown noise before the alarm time, then transition into a gradual wake-up with your selected alarm sound. Live Activities keep your next alarm visible on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island when Sleep Mode is active.
Features:
Gradual volume rise from silent to full
- Adjustable fade-in duration from 1 to 60 minutes
- Sleep Mode with adjustable low-volume audio
- Live Activities for Lock Screen and Dynamic Island
- One-time, daily, weekday, weekend, or custom repeat schedules
- Snooze options for 1, 5, 10, or 15 minutes
- Optional loud failsafe alarm if you do not dismiss the alarm
- Calming bundled sounds including birds, ocean waves, rain, piano, chimes, and more
- Local-only alarm storage with no tracking, analytics, or account required
Gentle Alarm is designed for people who want a softer start to the day while still keeping practical alarm controls close at hand.
