## What is VocalWake?

An alarm clock for heavy sleepers that you can't turn off in your sleep. When it rings, read the phrase on screen and say it out loud. VocalWake listens and only stops once you've said the words.

HOW IT WORKS ON IPHONE

- The alarm notification arrives at your wake time. Tap it to open VocalWake.
- Read the phrase out loud. The alarm stops once the words match.
- Once open, it keeps ringing for up to 15 minutes until you say it.
- After 3 failed tries you can type the phrase instead, so you're never stuck.

iOS doesn't let any app start the microphone from a closed app, which is why the tap comes first. Notifications must be enabled.

CHOOSE YOUR FIRST THOUGHT

Pick from 76 wake quotes from Roosevelt, Churchill, Maya Angelou and more, or write your own: the goal you are building, the promise you want to keep, or the reminder you need before the day gets loud.

WAKE UP ON PURPOSE

- One-time or repeating alarms
- Your own wake phrase on any alarm
- Typed dismissal when speaking isn't practical
- Snooze when you genuinely need another moment
