Choose math, shake, repeat-a-phrase, or QR challenges.
Twenty-five original tones
Five Extra Loud options start firmly, grow louder and faster, reach maximum intensity around 20 seconds, and hold—alongside gentle, bright, classic, and heavy-sleeper choices.
Make it personal
Record privately, compare Original and Enhanced, diagnose weak audio, use Alarm Boost or Build Up, and safely manage saved tones.
Test before relying
Run Bedroom Sound Check, review before-bed readiness, keep an independent backup alarm, and report whether the exact alarm actually schedules and rings on your device.
Plan sleep, too
Lifetime Access adds unlimited alarms, nap timers, and bedtime planning.
A closer look
See how it works.
One useful beta mission
Try one real task. Tell us one useful thing.
What to try
Keep an independent backup alarm. Run Bedroom Sound Check, then test a one-time alarm with the screen locked. Confirm it schedules and rings, use the native Snooze button, confirm the countdown re-alerts, then Stop. Include the exact app build, iPhone model, iOS version, lead time, Snooze interval, and outcome in any report.
What to tell us
Did anything in setup, testing, or dismissal make you doubt that the alarm was ready?
If something fails, include your iPhone model, iOS version, exact steps, expected result, and what happened instead.
Privacy & support
Your information belongs to you.
The app is designed to be useful without a developer-operated account or advertising profile.
No account, advertising, analytics, tracking, or developer-operated server.
Alarms, preferences, imported tones, recordings, diagnostics, and enhanced tones remain local.
Microphone, camera, and motion are requested only when you choose a matching feature.
Earlier beta builds received confirmed AlarmKit Error 0 and non-ringing reports. The current candidate adds fail-closed scheduling, cancellation, persistence, rollback, and recovery controls, but representative physical-device ringing and native-Snooze evidence remains limited. Keep an independent backup alarm and do not treat Wake Well as a guaranteed wake-up service.
Before you install
Clear requirements. No surprises.
Designed for iPhone with iOS 26 or later because system alarms use AlarmKit.
Alarm permission is required for system alarms.
Microphone, camera, and motion permissions are needed only for the matching optional feature.
Good to know
Frequently asked questions.
Can it use Apple Music as an alarm?
No. Wake Well includes twenty-five original tones and lets you record a personal tone or import compatible audio you own; it does not promise Apple Music playback.
Can Wake Well force the iPhone louder?
No app can override the iPhone's final alarm-volume setting. Wake Well's Extra Loud tones escalate inside the sound itself, and Alarm Check helps you verify the result before relying on it.
Will it work in Silent Mode or Focus?
Wake Well uses Apple's system alarm framework. Test your chosen alarm and tone on your own iPhone with Alarm Check before relying on it.
Does Tone Studio upload my voice?
No. Recording, diagnostics, cleanup, Alarm Boost, and Build Up happen on your iPhone. Temporary working audio is removed after you save or discard.
How does Snooze work?
Wake Well uses AlarmKit's documented native Snooze countdown at the interval you choose. Test initial ringing, Snooze, re-alert, and Stop on your own iPhone before relying on it; Wake Well does not claim those physical behaviors are proven on every device or iOS version.
What stays free?
Three alarms, every wake challenge, all twenty-five tones, Tone Studio, audio import, backup alarms, Bedroom Sound Check, Alarm Check, and adjustable native Snooze.
