What's New in AlarmK

1.8.1

November 9, 2026

● New in Settings › Wake behavior: Ring again after Stop. If you stop a mission alarm before the mission is done, choose how soon it rings again: 5 seconds (the default), 15 seconds, 30 seconds or 1 minute. ● A mission alarm can now show Snooze where Start mission was. Turn on Show Snooze instead of Start mission under Snooze in the alarm editor. The button changes on both the Lock Screen and Apple Watch, and you open the app to do the mission. It's off by default. ● After a snooze, a mission alarm now rings again for your full Re-ring duration, as it does after the first ring. Before, a long snooze could use up the re-rings. ● After you slide to stop on the Lock Screen, unlocking takes you to the ring screen again. ● Fixed: after a snooze from the Lock Screen or Apple Watch, opening the app could show a ring screen with nothing ringing. ● The Erase data alert now names NFC tags, background photos and the Find an object list. ● The feedback email includes more of the alarm log, so missed or overlapping alarms are easier to look into.

Incredible app and support team

I do not often leave reviews on apps, but I feel I must do so here given how fantastic both the features and support team have been for me.

1.) Support Team - I was having some trouble with making my Apple Watch vibrate when my AlarmK alarm went off, and so I sent an email to support from their in-app feedback button. EVERY time I have sent an email to them, they have responded in less than 8 hours. 8 hours. How that is even possible, I’m not too sure, and I imagine it’ll be inevitable that they’re response time will slow down as this app gets more popular. But consider me beyond impressed by how the team behind this app is doing right now.

2.) This app is constantly being updated and has so many thoughtful features with high utility. I’ve always struggled to get out of bed (I unironically set alarms on both my watch and my phone at 1 minute intervals for an hour before I need to wake up), but this app solves my morning problem with just 1 single alarm! I love the QR code mission because it really forces me to get out of bed.

It is also crazy to me that this app is completely free with no locked paid features. Even if it wouldn’t stay this way forever, I’d be happy to pay a one-time fee to support the team behind this app (but if they switched to a subscription-based model I would probably leave and find a different app).

TLDR: amazing and thoughtful features, super responsive support team, and completely free!

Not trustworthy

My second day using this app and it already failed to ring. I expected this to work better than apples official alarm app but it didn't go off at all today.

Only way I can wake up.

Only way I can wake up. With my regular alarms it doesn’t wake me up and when it does I just turn them off but with this one it doesn’t turn off until you do missions. They have lost of different mission options and it wakes your brain up and for me it makes me stay up.

Response from developer

Thank you for the review. That is exactly what the missions are for. Version 1.7.1 adds a ninth one, Number order, if you want to mix things up.

Great app

Caveat: I just tried for one night so far, but I liked it so much to the point of coming here to write a review unprompted because this has been SUCH a breeze in comparison to all other QR code scanner alarm apps I’ve tried for iOS. I have no idea why this has been such an empty area in iOS but boy am I glad this app is here now. Smooth setup, and everything worked well. Keep up the great work!

Response from developer

Thanks for the review. I'm glad the QR setup went smoothly. You can also test a registered code without an alarm: open the alarm editor and tap Try this mission.

helping

I am a really deep sleeper, but this app is helping a lot. I really like that. It has different missions and it's free throughout with no app fees. One thing that I think that they should add is probably add more options on missions maybe one like to track down each thing but other than that great app I recommend getting it's probably the best

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words, and for the suggestion. A mission like the one you describe arrived in version 1.4.0: Find an object. You register a few things around your home with a test photo, such as the washing machine, the fridge or the bathroom faucet, and when the alarm rings it asks you to photograph some of them, picked at random (up to three, depending on difficulty). To try it, open an alarm, choose Find an object as the mission, and tap Register objects. Version 1.7.1, released on October 31, adds another mission, Number order, where you tap the numbers on a grid in order. If there's another kind of mission that would help you get up, I'd like to hear it at support@alarmk.com.

FAQ

Does AlarmK have ads?

No, AlarmK is ad-free. The app's subtitle explicitly states 'No ads', and the provided data confirms it does not have advertisements.

How does AlarmK ensure alarms ring through Silent mode?

AlarmK is built on iOS's AlarmKit, which uses system-level alarms. This grants it the same permission model as Apple's Clock app, allowing it to ring through Silent and Focus modes.

What are the different missions available in AlarmK?

AlarmK offers 12 missions including QR/barcode scanning, math problems, memory games, typing, number order, shaking the phone, squats, walking, object hunts, sliding puzzles, NFC tags, and exercises. Users can chain up to 5 missions.

What is Critical Mode in AlarmK?

Critical Mode is an eight-item checklist for the night before important mornings. It helps ensure the alarm will function correctly by checking AlarmKit permission, iPhone charging, Silent mode, Focus mode, saved QR/barcode, Apple Watch pairing, a backup alarm, and notification permission.

Can AlarmK sync my alarms across devices?

Yes, AlarmK uses iCloud sync for alarm definitions. This means your saved alarms can be transferred to a new iPhone without your alarm data being sent to their servers.

What happens if I deny AlarmK alarm permissions?

If the system alarm permission is denied, AlarmK will refuse to save or activate a new alarm. It will inform you why and direct you to Settings to grant the necessary permissions, rather than letting an alarm fail silently.

How often is AlarmK updated?

The latest version of AlarmK is 1.8.1, which was last updated on November 9, 2026. This indicates a relatively frequent update schedule.

What devices does AlarmK support?

AlarmK is currently supported on iPhone devices. It also features integration with Apple Watch for countdowns.
