## What is Wake Up Clock Free?

The Ad-Supported version of The Toddler Wake Up Clock was designed by me, a dad who needed a simple solution to show his two-year-old when was an appropriate time to wake up. Simplicity was key, as adding yet another task to bedtime was not an option. With that in mind the Toddler Wake Up Clock allows the parent to pick a time and the "sun rises" at the time selected. No sound is associated with the wake-up time, it simply allows the child, if awake, to see that it is appropriate to get out of bed. 

-Simple to pick a time 

-The "night time mode" dims the iDevice screen as much as possible, so as to minimally shine in the child's face at night 

-The time selected is remembered the next time the app is opened, so the time does not need to be selected every time

## Key features

- Visual wake-up indicator
- Customizable wake-up time
- Night time mode for reduced glare
- Remembers last set time
- Simple interface

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-02-09*

I live the simplicity of this app. Currently it doesn’t work on modern versions of iOS. I would love to see it updated!

### 2/5 — Dev PLEASE UPDATE THE APP

*2022-12-03*

iOS pulled a “you have to have the dev update to use this app” it’s complete bologna. We know nothing changed with iOS other than them finding new ways to sell your data.

### 3/5 — Not too good 😞

*2022-11-23*

It is not good because it will interrupt me while I charge my iPad which is annoying 😠. Can you please fix this. Thank you so much though 🤗.

### 5/5 — Great app doesn’t work after new update

*2021-05-13*

Great app doesn’t work after new update 14.5.1

### 5/5 — Great For Toddler

*2021-01-19*

This app was a lifesaver when my 2 year old grandson spent the night, but mom forgot to pack the wake up clock. So simple to use and he stayed quiet until “Mr. Sun” appeared the next morning 😊

### 5/5 — Amazing 🤩

*2020-12-03*

When I saw the app five stars ⭐️ hmm. So I look at reviews and I was like ok... but when I got the app , I am like ITS THIS EASY!?!? So this is a good app. You don’t have to give private information ℹ️. You just set a alarm for what time you want to wake up!

### 5/5 — Amazing, worked with my 2 year old (25 mth old)

*2020-05-16*

This app does everything the $40 wake clocks on amazon do. Why buy a wake clock?? 
Within days of using chocolate chips and explaining to my 2 year old that she gets chocolate (yes even in the morning) when she doesnt scream for us but waits for the sunshine on the app to come on. Within a week, i could reliably get her to sot quietly and rock herself back to sleep before her daily “wake time” for both morning and her afternoon nap. It takes good understanding of your kids level of comprehension and how susceptible they are to rewards. Its been about a month and this morning out of the blue she work up at 6am and called for me for the first time in a few weeks, but then looked at the ipad and went back to sleep. It also helped us get her back into her afternoon naps that she lost when she spend a few days w grandparents. Truly wonderful.

Constructive criticism: would help a lot if the screen would go truly black the whole night before the sunshine comes on, because even on the darkest settings and black background it was initially brighter in her room than she is used to. Ideally the screen would turn off until it was time for her to wake up.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2019-02-22*

We used this app when we were traveling as to not bring the okay to wake clock from home.  But now we use it every night on an old phone. 
But please update the app so I can use it on all my devices!!!!!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2015-03-02*

Simple to set up, just make sure you select am/pm correctly! Haven't used with the little one yet, but I'm hoping it's a winner. Thanks for creating this!
