About

Pakari

Features
Read full description

Pakari is the alarm for your workdays. It automatically skips your country's public holidays, so you never again wake up at 6 a.m. on a day you didn't have to. Set your alarm just once. Pakari knows the holiday calendar of 70+ countries (and your region, where it applies) and stays silent on those days. On workdays, it wakes you right on time. ■ WHY PAKARI • It doesn't ring on your country's holidays — automatic, nothing to do. • Choose your country and region: local holidays count too. • My holidays: is your country missing, or do you have your own holiday? Add it and it won't ring that day. • Wakes you for real: rings even on silent or in a Focus. • Unlimited alarms for different schedules and routines. • Exceptions and vacations: mark your own days off. • Soft, melodic tones designed to wake you gently. • Gradual wake-up: the volume rises little by little. • No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Your data stays on your iPhone. ■ PAKARI PRO Try the full Pakari free for 7 days. Then continue with the yearly subscription or the one-time lifetime purchase. Your already-scheduled alarms will always keep ringing. Wake up only when you really have to. — The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account. You can manage or cancel the subscription in your account Settings.
