A talking alarm clock that actually tells you something. When it goes off, a real voice greets you and reads your morning out loud: the local weather, today's top headlines, and a line worth thinking about — before your feet hit the floor. Most alarms just make noise. You silence the buzz, grab your phone, and lose ten minutes scrolling weather and news apps in bed. This one flips that around: the information you were going to look up anyway arrives as speech, while you're still stretching. No screen. No scrolling. Just a voice telling you what kind of day you woke up into. WHAT YOU GET - Wake to a spoken briefing instead of a beep — greeting, weather, headlines, and a daily quote read aloud the moment the alarm fires - Know the weather before you get dressed, with the current condition, temperature, feels-like, and humidity for where you are right now - Hear today's headlines while your eyes are still closed, in the news category you care about: general, tech, sports, business, science, health, or entertainment - Pick the voice that gets you moving — seven speaking styles including calm, energetic, deep, warm, British, and Australian, with speed and pitch you can dial in - Hear exactly what your alarm will say before you trust it, by previewing the full briefing any time from the Today screen - Keep your mornings on rails with repeat days, labels, snooze, and a history of every briefing you woke up to PERFECT FOR - Early risers who check weather and news within five minutes of waking anyway - Commuters who need to know if it's raining before they pick a jacket - Anyone who hits snooze on a plain buzzer but sits up when someone talks - People who want their phone to inform them in the morning, not swallow them WHY NOT JUST USE THE BUILT-IN CLOCK The built-in clock wakes you. It doesn't tell you it's 39 degrees and drizzling, or what happened overnight. That still costs you a phone-in-bed detour every single morning. This app hands you the same information as speech, in a voice you chose, in the seconds you'd otherwise spend squinting at a screen. PRIVACY No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking. Your alarms, settings, and briefing history stay on your device. Location is used only to look up your local weather, and speech is generated on-device by iOS text-to-speech — your briefing is never sent anywhere to be read. FULL ACCESS Free includes one alarm, the default voice, and a briefing with one headline. Full Access unlocks unlimited alarms, all seven voices with speed and pitch control, up to five headlines per briefing, and your full alarm history. Available as a weekly subscription, a yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime unlock — your choice, restore any time. Set tomorrow's alarm tonight, turn the briefing on, and hear how different a morning sounds.
