Check in from your Home Screen. • New: the Tonight widget. Add it to your Home Screen or to StandBy (your iPhone on its side while it charges). It shows the time you're staying awake until and this week's hours. • During a Check-In it counts down to the next check-in, with an I'm awake button that resets it without opening the app. When a check-in is due it turns red, and if you use the wake-up check it tells you to open the app. • After a session ends by itself, it says You made it and how long you were awake. • The widget also comes in a wider size, with a big I'm awake button during a check-in and your week day by day the rest of the time, and on the Lock Screen: a short card, a round countdown, or one line above the clock. • On iOS 18 and later, add Start Check-In to Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button: one tap opens the app and starts a Check-In until your end time. Or ask Siri: "Start a check-in in Keep Me Awake". • The widget is free. • New for Pro: Start soft, get louder. A check-in alarm starts at a quarter of the volume and reaches full volume in 30 seconds, kinder to anyone asleep nearby. Settings › Volume and vibration. • Your own alarm sound now rings when the app is closed too, not just the default alert. • The wake-up check now works in Dead Button too: let go and you solve the sum to stop the alarm, then put your finger back within 10 seconds. • Free Dead Button sessions still last 15 minutes, but at the end you can keep going with Check-In instead of an alarm that wouldn't stop. • New for Pro: Random check-ins. Each one comes 3 to 8 minutes after the last, so you can't doze off to the rhythm. • Settings is shorter: one screen with Check-In, Alarm and About, and a page for each thing. Tap Sound on the start screen to go straight to the sounds. • Your nights: tap a night to see every check-in on a line through the night, when the alarm rang and how long it took you to answer. Delete a single night from its page, or press and hold it in the list. • Nights in a row: see how many nights running you made it, on Your nights, under You made it and on the widget. • New for Pro: export your nights as a CSV file to open in a spreadsheet. • The app opens a little faster.

Check in from your Lock Screen, and a friendlier first night. • Your check-in countdown now sits on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Tap "I'm awake" right there and the countdown starts over, no unlocking needed. (With a wake-up check on, the sum still has to be solved once the alarm rings.) • If iOS closes the app in the night, your session keeps going: open it and you're right where you were. • New here? A short intro shows the two ways to stay awake: Check-In and Dead Button. • Before iOS asks for anything, Keep Me Awake says why: Alarms let a missed check-in ring even on Silent or in a Focus, and notifications are the backup. Say "Not now" and nothing pops up over your first countdown. • Changed your mind later? Settings has a calm "Allow" button instead of a red warning, and "Show intro again" at the bottom.

A new start screen, a real alarm, night mode and a wake-up check. • Plan the night: set "stay awake until" (say 6:00 AM), press Start, and the session ends by itself at that time. • On iOS 26, a missed check-in now rings like a real alarm even when your phone is on Silent, locked or in a Focus. Tap "I'm awake" right on the alarm. • Keep Me Awake now follows your phone's Dark Mode: warm charcoal at night instead of a bright screen. • New wake-up check: when a check-in alarm rings, solve a quick sum to stop it. A half-asleep thumb can hit a big button; it can't do maths. It's off unless you turn it on ("To stop the alarm" on the start screen, or Settings). Pro adds three tougher sums in a row. • Easier to read in both light and dark, and the alarm flash respects Reduce Motion.

Bug fix: the app no longer pauses your music when you open it from a cold start. Audio only ducks now when an alarm is actually playing.

Bug fixes: • The app no longer pauses your music when you open it. Audio only ducks now when an alarm is actually playing. • Added an in-app rating prompt after long Stay-Awake sessions.

Bug fixes: • Dead Button switch no longer breaks when a second finger touches it. • First finger-release now triggers the alarm instantly (no warm-up lag).
