"Once the alarm sounds, users must complete a series of interactive missions to turn it off. These tasks include a variety of challenges, such as rotating the iPhone, completing a set of push-ups, or tackling math problems, puzzles, or even language lessons. By incorporating physical and mental activities, Awake aims to help break the cycle of hitting snooze and encourage a more active start to the day."
"While other similar apps exist, such as Alarmy, Challenges, and Mathe Alarm, among others, Awake sets itself apart by offering additional features. One of these is a "Morning Briefing," which offers a customized summary of information the user chooses the night before, including the weather forecast and events from a calendar. There's also a Block integration, which prevents users from accessing social media immediately upon waking. A future feature will allow people to listen to new podcast episodes as soon as they open their eyes."
Awake is an iOS 26-only alarm app that requires users to complete interactive missions to silence alarms, intending to prevent snoozing and ensure full wakefulness. Missions include rotating the iPhone, performing push-ups, solving math problems, puzzles, or language lessons, combining physical and mental activity to break the snooze habit. Extra features include a Morning Briefing customizable the night before with weather and calendar events, a Block integration to restrict social media after waking, and a sleep planner that calculates optimal bedtimes from desired sleep duration and wake time. The developer built Awake after demand from Structured users and access to Apple’s Alarm Kit framework.
