Know when to turn in. Keep the time close. Wake up with Mellowake. Set your wake-up time and how long you want to sleep. Mellowake works out your bedtime and keeps it in view with a calm countdown, Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, and an optional gentle bedtime reminder. A CLOCK FOR YOUR BEDSIDE Open a clear, easy-to-read clock with your bedtime, wake-up time and next alarm. Choose a dimmer display or keep the screen awake while the clock is open in the foreground. The layout adapts to portrait, landscape and the folded or open displays of iPhone Duo. A WAKE-UP ALARM, WHEN YOU WANT ONE On iOS 26 or later, enable a daily alarm at your chosen wake-up time. Choose your alarm sound and use a 9-minute snooze. Alarm permission is required. Wake-up alarms and gentle bedtime reminders have separate switches. A QUIETER WAY TO END THE DAY No scores, streaks or sleep tracking. No account to create. Your schedule stays on your device, and the core experience works offline. Mellowake supports English, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German and Brazilian Portuguese. The bedside clock is an in-app display. Keeping it awake applies only while Mellowake is in the foreground. Sleep duration is your plan, not a measurement. Bedtime Live Activities start when you open Mellowake during the bedtime window. A SOUND FOR YOUR MORNING Choose from 24 sounds: 4 are free, and 20 are available in Morning Collection with a one-time in-app purchase. The system default remains free. Preview every sound before buying and restore purchases with the same App Store account. No subscription. Sounds play from your device; purchasing and restoring require an internet connection.
