## What is FanWake?

FanWake is an alarm clock you can see. Open it when it rings, or leave it on its bedside clock, and your whole screen flashes between two colors you pick, the flashlight can blink with it, and the phone buzzes on every change.
Free: 3 alarms, 5 saved themes, 24 color pairs and 26 ready-made themes, Slow and Medium flash, the Math and Shake challenges, the bedside clock and sleep sounds. No ads, no account.
FanWake Pro (monthly or yearly, 7 days free for new subscribers) adds unlimited alarms and saved themes, Fast and Accelerating flash, the Typing and Memory challenges, and any two colors you like.

HOW IT RINGS
• iOS 26 and later: allow alarms when asked and FanWake rings like the Clock app, on the lock screen, even on silent and in Focus. Open it while it rings and the color flash starts, with your challenge if you set one.
• iOS 17 to 25: a time-sensitive notification that repeats every 30 seconds for about five minutes, even in Focus. On silent, your iPhone only vibrates. Tap it and the flash starts.
• For the full light without touching your phone, leave FanWake open on its bedside clock, on the charger. At alarm time the flash takes the screen, with sound even on silent.
• Snooze rings again even when FanWake is closed. Alarms keep their time when you travel.

WHEN THE FLASH STARTS
• Your two colors fill the screen: Slow, Medium, Fast or Accelerating (the last two with Pro)
• The flashlight blinks with every change (iPhone; on or off for each alarm)
• A buzz on every change
• Sound that builds over 30 seconds: Classic, Digital, Gentle or Random

PROVE YOU'RE AWAKE
• Math: solve a sum
• Shake: shake the phone 15 times
• Typing: type a short phrase (Pro)
• Memory: match 6 pairs of colors (Pro)
• Or no challenge: Stop ends it
On iOS 26 the lock screen always shows Stop. On an alarm with a challenge, Stop brings it back two minutes later, up to 10 times, until you finish the challenge in FanWake.

YOUR COLORS
• 24 color pairs, 26 ready-made themes, or any two colors you like (Pro)
• Make and edit your own themes: 5 saved free, unlimited with Pro
• Your next alarm, in its own colors, is the home screen. Tap Preview to see its flash.

BEDSIDE CLOCK AND SLEEP SOUNDS
• A large, dim clock with your next alarm under it. Open it from Settings, or say "Start bedside in FanWake".
• 5 sleep sounds with a 15 to 90 minute timer; they stop when an alarm rings
• Bedtime timer: choose how long to sleep and FanWake sets the alarm

ALSO
• A wake-up streak, a streak freeze for one missed morning, and goals at 7, 14, 30, 60 and 100 days
• Siri and Shortcuts: set an alarm, ask for the next one, turn one on or off
• 12- or 24-hour clock, as your iPhone is set. iPhone and iPad.

ABOUT FLASHING LIGHT
FanWake changes color at most twice a second and asks about flashing light the first time you open it. With Reduce Flash in Settings, the colors fade once every 3 seconds and the flashlight stays steady.

PRIVATE
No account, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. Your alarms stay on your device.

FANWAKE PRO
If FanWake Pro ends, every alarm you set keeps ringing exactly as you set it; you just can't add more or pick Pro options until you're back. New subscribers get 7 days free, then $4.99 a month or $49.99 a year (US prices; your price is shown before you confirm).

SUBSCRIPTION TERMS

It renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the period; the renewal is charged within the 24 hours before it ends.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.1.0 — 2026-11-12

FanWake 3.1 makes the alarm itself something you can count on.

• iOS 26: FanWake now sets real alarms. They ring like the Clock app, on the lock screen, even on silent and in Focus.
• iOS 17 to 25: an alarm now repeats every 30 seconds for about five minutes, even in Focus. On silent, your iPhone only vibrates.
• Fixed: opening FanWake could unset alarms that were already set.
• Snooze rings again even when FanWake is closed, and a one-time alarm turns off after it rings.
• Alarms keep their time when you travel.
• The alarm takes the whole screen, even over the bedside clock.
• Your next alarm, in its own colors, is the home screen, with a 5-second Preview.
• Delete with Undo, plain words everywhere, and better large text and VoiceOver.
• Free and FanWake Pro are marked clearly, and subscribers see their plan in Settings.
• A new icon.

### 3.0.0 — 2026-09-04

FanWake 3.0 — The Light

FanWake has been rebuilt around one idea: a light is known by its colour pair and its period. Every alarm is now written as its own characteristic — a segmented bar you can read across the room, with the notation printed beside it.

WHAT YOU SEE FIRST
- Every alarm is drawn as the light it will be. Faster periods make more, narrower segments; Accelerating narrows as it goes; a switched-off alarm prints as an outline.
- Two registers, two jobs. Night is dim enough to set an alarm in the dark without waking yourself. Day is made to be read at arm's length.
- A new bedside clock face, legible across a dark room.

THE ALARM ITSELF
- When it fires, your colours fill the screen edge to edge — and every word sits on FanWake's own plate, so the time stays readable whichever two colours you chose.
- A bigger stop target and clearer proofs, for the moment you are least awake.

FIXED IN THIS VERSION
- Themes can now be edited and renamed, not only created and deleted.
- Notifications are asked for once, when you arm your first alarm, with a plain explanation — and FanWake keeps working if you say no.
- The rate button used to open the wrong app's review page.

PRIVACY
- FanWake no longer contains any analytics software at all. No account, no tracking, nothing leaves your phone.

Onboarding, the Pro screen, statistics and settings were all redrawn.
