Wake AI is a talking alarm clock for iPhone that wakes you with a personal spoken message instead of a generic alarm sound. Use it for calmer mornings, motivation, routines, meetings, workouts, or any moment where hearing the reason matters more than another ringtone. Create alarms that speak to you: • Write a custom message for each alarm • Choose from built-in voices or create your own custom voice • Personalize how your alarm starts with voice-only, gentle wake, or bell modes • Add snooze controls and choose your snooze duration • Create alarms with Siri using your default settings • See a Live Activity countdown while snoozing • Preview alarm styles before saving • Set repeating alarms for daily routines, meetings, workouts, and morning plans WHY PEOPLE USE WAKE AI A normal alarm tells you it is time. Wake AI can tell you why. Start the day with a message like: • “Good morning. Time for your workout.” • “Wake up slowly. You have your first meeting at 8.” • “Take a breath, get up, and start the routine.” • “Remember why today matters.” Wake AI works well for personal encouragement, spoken task cues, custom morning prompts, and practical alarms that explain what you need to do next. RELIABLE IPHONE ALARMS Wake AI uses Apple AlarmKit, Apple's native iPhone alarm framework. Alarms are designed to behave like system alarms, including sounding even when the app is closed and following iOS alarm behavior for Focus modes such as Do Not Disturb. USE WAKE AI FOR • Talking alarm clock wake-ups • Custom voice alarm messages • Morning motivation • Gentle wake-up routines • Snooze-friendly alarms • Siri-created alarms • Meeting, workout, and habit cues • Personal affirmations without a separate affirmation app TRY WAKE AI FREE Wake AI can be downloaded and used free. Creating new personalized alarm messages requires an active subscription. Check the app for current plans and prices.

Voice Clock

Voice Clock says the time out loud, on a schedule you choose — and keeps working when the app is closed. Most talking clocks stop after a few days. Voice Clock is built on iOS 26's alarm system, so announcements survive a force-quit and a reboot. If anything goes wrong, it tells you before you notice, and why. ANNOUNCE THE TIME, YOUR WAY • On the hour, or every 30, 15, 10 or 5 minutes • Custom minute and second intervals, down to five seconds • A five-minute heads-up before each announcement • Active hours, quiet hours and per-weekday rules • Four ways to say it, from "It's quarter past three" to "Three fifteen" • Write your own phrase: "Hey — it's {time}. {message}" TWENTY-SIX CLOCK FACES — SWIPE TO CHANGE Swipe left or right on the clock to try another, or tap See all to browse the set by theme. The default, Tidal Dial, is a 24-hour dial where every brass tick is a moment it will speak. Classic — Tidal Dial · Classic Analog · Rings · Minimal Typographic — Large Type · Word Clock · Digital · Terminal · Dot Matrix · Pixel · Editorial Retro — Flip · Nixie · Vinyl Expressive — Neon · Love · Starfield Instrument — Speed · Sunrise · Orbit · Chronograph Calm — Aurora · Wave · Breathe Luxe — Mesh · Gold Fifteen of them move — Love beats once a second, Gold catches a shine that travels across the hour, and the Speed gauge redlines in the last minute before it speaks. All hold still with Reduce Motion on. Keep one face everywhere, or give each surface its own. BUILD YOUR OWN FACE • Five layouts: centred, stacked, corner, hands, or in words • Five typefaces, six weights, ten colours, previewed as you pick • Your own photo as the background, from your library or the camera • A dimming slider, so digits stay readable over a busy picture Your photo is copied into the app and never leaves your device. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED IT • VoiceOver from the first screen, not bolted on afterwards • Dynamic Type to the largest accessibility sizes • High-contrast theme, Reduce Motion and Reduce Transparency • Simple Mode: one enormous "Say the time" button and nothing else YOUR OWN SOUNDS • Record your voice — or anyone's — as the announcement • Bring in a track, a voice memo, or any audio file • Turn a sentence into a sound, in a system voice or your Personal Voice • A real waveform editor: trim, fades, gain, loudness matching, speed • Nothing is destructive. Your original file is never modified. ALARMS AND TIMERS THAT TALK • Alarms that speak their label — "Time to take your tablets" • Prominent alarms ring through silent mode and Focus • Spoken cues at halfway, 1 minute, 30 seconds and 3·2·1 • Multi-step interval timers for circuits and recipes • Focus Sessions that announce elapsed time — "Twenty minutes in" EVERYWHERE YOU ALREADY ARE Apple Watch app and complications · Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy widgets · Control Center · Siri and Shortcuts · Live Activity · iPad and Mac TWO THINGS NOBODY ELSE HAS Sound Check runs nine live checks and says in plain language whether the app will work, with the fix beside each. The Delivery Log records every announcement — spoken, skipped or failed — with the reason. "Skipped 3:00 PM — you were on a call." No account. No server. No analytics. No ad identifiers. No third-party code. Speech is synthesised on device. Your recordings, photos, schedules and settings stay there, and sync only through your own private iCloud. Pro adds unlimited schedules, all twenty-six faces, the face builder, Personal Voice, custom phrases, second-level intervals, the full audio editor, multi-step timers and CarPlay.
