Alarm clock for iPhone

The alarm you
can't snooze through.

Rise keeps ringing until you get up and do something: scan a barcode in the kitchen, solve a sum, shake your phone awake. Then it checks you didn't crawl back into bed.

Scanning a barcode to switch off a Rise alarm Rise alarm list with a barcode scanner alarm Rise wake-up check asking you to confirm you're awake

Snooze stops working.
You start working.

Most alarms can be silenced half-asleep. Rise makes the off switch something your brain and legs have to do. Setting one up takes three steps.

  1. 1

    Set the time

    Pick a time and a repeat: once, weekdays, weekends, every day, or the exact days you choose. Pick a built-in sound or your own audio file.

  2. 2

    Choose how it turns off

    Pick a wake-up task for that alarm: a math problem, a phrase to type, or (with Pro) a barcode on the coffee jar that you can't scan from bed.

  3. 3

    Get up, then prove it

    The alarm rings until the task is done. Turn on the wake-up check and you have 100 seconds to confirm you're up, or it rings again.

Seven ways to
wake up.

Every alarm gets its own task. Easy on Saturdays, merciless on Mondays. Math and Typing are free; the rest come with Rise Pro.

Math Problem Free

Solve sums to switch it off. Choose easy, medium or hard.

Typing Challenge Free

Type a phrase exactly to stop the alarm. Pro lets you write your own phrases.

Barcode Scan Pro

Register any barcode in your home. To stop the alarm, walk to it and scan it.

Shake Test Pro

Shake your phone until the count runs out. Hard to do while still lying down.

Tap Test Pro

Tap the screen until the count runs out.

CAPTCHA Pro

Read a distorted code and type it in. Prove you're a human, and an awake one.

Target Track Pro

Follow the moving target with your phone. Needs steady hands and open eyes.
