Rise
A wake-up alarm for heavy sleepers and snooze addicts. Rise keeps ringing until you complete a mission, and checks again a few minutes later that you are really awake.
An alarm that makes sure you are actually awake.
Rise is built for people who sleep through normal alarms or hit snooze on autopilot.
Mission Alarms
Stop the alarm only after finishing a challenge: Math, Shake, Typing, Squat, Memory pattern, Steps, Barcode scan, Photo match or NFC tag. With Pro you can chain two missions.
Wake-Up Check
Optional Pro follow-up a few minutes after you dismiss the alarm. If you fall back asleep, it rings again.
Reliable by Design
Uses Android exact alarms, a foreground service and boot rescheduling, and walks you through your phone brand's battery settings so the alarm keeps ringing after a restart or with battery saver on.
Bedtime, Naps & Sleep Sounds
Plan your bedtime on a sleep dial, start a power nap from the + button, or play wind-down sounds such as rain and brown noise.
On-Device Data
Alarms, streaks and your reference photo stay on your phone. No account is needed.

Math, Shake, Typing and Barcode missions, unlimited alarms and streaks are free. Rise Pro adds Squat, Memory, Photo, NFC and Steps missions, mission chains, the Wake-Up Check, all sleep sounds, weather in the morning briefing and wake-up stats. No ads.
