A Classic iPhone App
So glad the developers have revived this classic iPhone clock / alarm app. It is very customizable and offers some unique looks. They were doing "Standby Mode" before Apple ever did!
It was decent
Used this app daily and worked great for the last few years. It just updated and now it’s terrible. It doesn’t work trying to play music now. Only the backup app alarm sounds work. Before the update I could dim the clock to barely on note it auto dims and barely comes off of bright even when the phone screen is dimmed all the way down. I want the old version back.

App Stopped Working
Yesterday my app stopped working, I can no longer access the alarm or any settings listed at the bottom, what happened?
Does not work on iOS 12
Don’t buy this app! It seems, that the developer is no longer working on it. On my iPhone 7 Plus under iOS 12 the clock does not work. Neither smooth awaking with fade in nor any other function will work. Only a standard bell is ringing at the time, you will wake up. The last post in his blog is from 2018 and announced an update to iOS 11

We updated the app just a few weeks ago and at the moment there haven’t been any outstanding tickets in our support system or known problems. Please contact us at support@embraceware.com so we can help resolve this issue - thanks!
Наконец-то обновили
Приложение не обновлялось 5 лет. Пять долгих лет, Карл! Всё это время я не удалял приложение и пользовался им на старом 4s айфоне с 6 iOS. И вот, наконец, обновили — теперь можно пользоваться на новых айфонах. Молодцы, красавчики!
P. S. Но вот иконку зря поменяли. Надеюсь, вернут прежнюю.

今も重宝してます
一時期音量調整ができなくなった不具合がありましたが現在は調整済みのようで特に問題なく動いてます。（iOS 10.3.3）

À quand la nouvelle version 11 pour Apple
Sad day
It's a sad day. I have to delete this now.
I've been using it for years; I sleep so soundly I need additional alarms to wake up. Awaken was my go-to for several years, but now, on iOS 10, it doesn't even function anymore. You can't enable alarms, and half the UI is broken. It used to be great, but it's time to move on. No updates in almost 4 years.

Unreliable
At first it worked great. But now...it's pretty unreliable. I push the button to on and then save only to go back and check and it's back to off (when setting my alarm). I've had it go off while my phone was on vibrate. I've had it not do anything while I've purposely waited for it to go off. I've deleted and reinstalled it and same thing.

IOS 10
Mit IOS 10 ist die App unbrauchbar geworden 😔
Response from developer
Awaken now works with iOS 10, 11 and has been tested on the upcoming iOS 12 release.
Deleted app from my iPad
When I first downloaded this app several years ago I loved it, but with each OS upgrade the app became less and less reliable until, ultimately, I had to delete the alarm I'd set that morning and create a new one that night for the following morning ... EVERY single day. Finally I got sick enough to delete the app altogether and purchase Nightstand Central, which is MUCH better.

Not working iOS 10
Used this for years and never had an issue.Now won't enable alarms since iOS 10
Great as a Home screen digital clock for night time
I’ve never had a problem with the alarm function, but I rarely use this app for that feature anyway.
For me, this app is perfect to give me a nighttime digital clock on my Home Screen, for when I wake up and night - I don’t want a bright light in my face, but I often have to get up, and then find my way back to bed - I only need a small amount of light, and the Lock Screen clock won’t suffice because it doesn’t stay on……it shuts off after a few seconds if you don’t swipe to unlock (or use touch ID).
So I just launch this app before going to bed, and if I wake up and need the little bit of light it produces whilst seeing the time, it’s perfect.

The volume adjustment issue has been fixed. Thank-you for reporting the problem.
Has great potential, but unreliable
When I first downloaded this app back in 2012 it worked great. I really liked being able to wake up to my own music and to have the music fade in over time. At that time, the app was very reliable. As time progressed and new updates were released, the app has become unreliable. I have arrived late to work and missed several other events because of this app. I would change the alarm time and save it. I would check the alarm several times to make sure the change was saved, which appeared to be. I would then fall asleep thinking the app would wake me up at the new time. Much to my dismay, I would wake up late. After checking the alarm, I would see that the change to the alarm wasn't saved. I have been unable to find any rhyme or reason as to why changes are saved sometimes and not others. At this point, I have reached my limit on frustration and will be looking for a new app.

Best in class alarm ...but broken in iOS 8
This has been my go-to alarm app until iOS 8 came out. Now it won't even open. Please fix!
