## What is Calendar Alarms?

The alarm clock that checks your calendar.

Calendar Alarms links your alarm to Apple Calendar. It rings on the days you need to be up – office days, early shifts, gym mornings – and stays silent on the days you don’t.

Set an alarm time once and pick the calendar event it should follow, such as “Office” or “Early shift”. Every morning Calendar Alarms checks today’s schedule. If the event is there, it rings. If it isn’t, silence.

No more switching alarms off on Friday and back on every Sunday night. No more sleeping through a work day because you forgot.

HOW IT WORKS

Set your alarm time once
Pick a calendar event for it to follow
Calendar Alarms checks your calendar every day
It rings on matching days and stays silent on the rest
See the upcoming ring dates before you save

PERFECT FOR

Hybrid workers with changing office days
Shift workers on a rota
Commuters whose week changes from week to week
Anyone tired of turning alarms on and off by hand

REAL SYSTEM ALARMS
Built on Apple’s AlarmKit, so your alarms ring through Silent mode and Focus.

HANDS-FREE WITH SIRI

Say “Hey Siri, skip my next alarm in Calendar Alarms”, ask what’s set, or switch an alarm on or off – without opening the app. The same actions are in Shortcuts.
Skip a day: sit out one morning without switching the alarm off. It rings as normal on the next matching day.
Just describe it: type “wake me at half seven on gym days” and the alarm fills itself in, on your iPhone. Needs Apple Intelligence.

### 5/5 — Update on last review!

*2026-10-07*

Have been using this for a little while now and it’s great not having to worry about setting an alarm every night. Got a bit bored of the standard noises so just upgraded to premium and have to say it’s worth the money to wake up to music I’m not used to!

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the feedback, I’m pleased you’re finding it helpful and enjoy the extra sounds and functionality from premium

### 5/5 — Varied alarm schedules simplified

*2026-06-20*

I downloaded this app as I needed a way of setting alarms based on my work schedule. Given I work in different locations on a weekly basis, the app simplifies my alarms and wakes me up at different times depending on where I need to be on that day. The big bonus here is not having to think about setting an alarm when I go to bed, as the app already knows my schedule. 
Highly recommend.

**Developer response:** Glad you’re getting good use out of it, thank you for the great feedback!

### 5/5 — Nothing like it!

*2026-06-15*

I was looking for a solution that would allow me to wake up at different times depending on which office I was attending or whether I was working from home.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback and to hear you’re making use of the app!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-06-13*

Works great with a lovely clean interface. Ideal for shift workers who wake up at different times on different days. Means I can’t forget to set my alarm, as it finds my shifts in my calendar and wakes me up at a preset time before.

### 5/5 — Really useful!

*2026-06-12*

Linked directly into my calendar so no need to constantly change alarms

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.7.1 — 2026-11-04

Calendar Alarms, the alarm clock for shift work and office days, now works better for everyone, on iPhone and Apple Watch.

• Larger Text: alarm times now grow with your text size setting
• Easier to read: the orange is higher-contrast in light mode
• Apple Watch: VoiceOver reads each alarm in one go and says which alarm each button switches on or off. Text is clearer, and wraps instead of being cut off
• Siri: every phrase now works in all six languages, not just the first one
• The app version now shows at the bottom of How It Works, handy if you ever contact support

If Calendar Alarms keeps your mornings on track, a rating on the App Store helps other people find it.

### 2.7 — 2026-10-28

Calendar Alarms now works with Siri. Say "Hey Siri, skip my next alarm in Calendar Alarms", or ask what's set, turn an alarm on or off, or add a new one — all without opening the app. The same actions are in the Shortcuts app.

Just describe it — when you add an alarm, tap Describe it instead and type something like "wake me at half seven on gym days". The alarm fills itself in, ready for you to check and save. It runs entirely on your iPhone and needs Apple Intelligence.

Skip a day — swipe an alarm and tap Skip next to sit out one morning without switching it off. It rings as normal on the next matching day.

Try before you buy — tap play beside any alarm sound to hear it, including the ones Premium unlocks.

Also in this update:
• Fixed: after travelling to a different time zone, alarms could ring at the old time. They now switch to local time — opening the app once when you arrive makes sure
• Changes to your calendar are picked up more reliably when the app hasn't been opened for a while
• The app now appears as Calendar Alarms on your Home Screen
• Alarm times now follow your region and your 24-Hour Time setting
