## What is Dawnling?

Set your alarm. Wake up to a creature you have never seen before.

Dawnling is an alarm clock with a reason to get up. Every morning, when your alarm rings and you turn it off, a new Dawnling hatches: a small glowing creature generated just for that day. The same one for everyone who wakes to it, and never the same one twice.

Keep your streak going and your collection grows, one morning at a time.

FEATURES
- A real alarm, built on the latest iOS alarm technology, so it sounds even when your iPhone is silenced or in a Focus mode
- A new procedurally generated creature every day, drawn right on your device
- Wake-up streaks that reward you for actually getting up
- Rarities to discover, from Common to Luminous
- A home screen widget that shows the day's Dawnling
- Softly animated sunrise skies
- No account and no sign-up. Everything stays on your device

Dawnling is free, supported by ads.

Wake up to something new tomorrow.


## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-09-03

Fixes a bug that could cause the ad for peeking at tomorrow, and the ad after collecting your creature, to open to a blank black screen instead of playing. Ads now load and play reliably, and if one ever fails to start, the peek is granted anyway.

### 1.1 — 2026-08-04

NEW: Raise a Companion

Hatch a companion and raise it day to day: feed it, play with it, clean up after it. Put it to sleep against your real alarm each night, and watch what it becomes — your actual sleep schedule shapes how it evolves, night after night. After a full life together, it grows old, and a new one is ready to hatch.

Also new: a Remove Ads option, plus small art and animation polish throughout. Both Companion and Remove Ads are one-time purchases.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-23

No release notes.
