VacationAlarm
Travel
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: 17 alarm sounds, regional holidays, Siri & Shortcuts to pause alarms, and a one-time Lifetime Unlock. Sleep in on every holiday – automatically.
Never wake up to an alarm on a day off again.
VacationAlarm is the smart alarm clock that automatically skips your alarm on public holidays — so you can sleep in without lifting a finger.
Set it once, sleep in whenever.
Connect your alarm to your country's public holiday calendar. When a holiday rolls around, your alarm stays silent. When you're back to work, it rings as usual.
Going on vacation? Pause any alarm for the exact days you're away. Your schedule picks up exactly where it left off the moment you return.
Your country, your holidays.
Supports public holidays for over 90 countries. Choose the holiday type that matches your schedule — public, bank, or regional.

New features
• Lifetime unlock: a one-time $4.99 purchase that unlocks everything the subscription does (unlimited pauses and holiday skipping), forever. It's shown in Settings once bought.
• Alarm sounds: a new sound picker in the alarm editor with 17 sounds in three groups: Gentle, Energetic and Heavy Sleeper.
• Siri & Shortcuts: pause and resume alarms by voice or from the Shortcuts app.
• Keep an alarm on for a single holiday: in the alarm editor, tap an upcoming holiday so the alarm still rings that day.
• Regional holidays: pick your state, province or canton in Settings. Regional holidays now only skip alarms if you live in that region; before, they counted as days off for the whole country.
Improvements & fixes
• More accurate holidays: the holiday data for all countries was refreshed and now records which region each holiday applies to.
• Alarms follow settings changes: if you change your country, region or holiday type, existing alarms are rescheduled automatically, so they don't skip days that are now workdays.
• Fewer stray alarms: a fix for alarms occasionally ringing at random times. Scheduling can no longer overlap and leave stray entries behind.
