Wake up earlier, gradually. RISER helps you build an earlier wake-up habit by moving your alarm earlier in small daily steps instead of forcing a huge jump overnight. If you have ever set an ambitious early alarm, hit snooze, and slipped straight back into your normal routine, RISER is built for you. Most early wake-up plans fail because they ask too much, too soon. Going from your usual wake-up time straight to 5am sounds motivating at night, but often feels unrealistic in the morning. RISER takes a more sustainable approach. You start from the time you actually wake up now, choose the time you want to reach, and let the app guide you there with gradual shifts of 2 to 15 minutes per day. The result is a wake-up plan that feels more natural, less extreme, and easier to stick to. How RISER works: • Set your current wake-up time • Choose your goal wake-up time • Pick your pace, from very gentle to faster progress • Wake up and let RISER move your alarm earlier over time • Use optional snooze support when you need flexibility Instead of relying on motivation alone, RISER gives you structure. You do not need to keep resetting alarms, guessing what time to try next, or starting over every time one rough morning throws you off. RISER is designed to help you make steady progress and keep moving towards your goal. Built to help you stay consistent: • One smart alarm that gradually shifts earlier • Clear progress tracking so you can see how far you have come • A simple dashboard that keeps your next alarm and goal in view • Achievement badges for milestones, streaks, and target wins • Home Screen and Lock Screen widget support for quick visibility • Easy setup with no complicated routine planning RISER is ideal if you: • Want to wake up earlier without shocking your system • Are tired of setting early alarms and snoozing them • Want a better morning routine built through small, realistic changes • Prefer steady habit building over extreme challenges • Want a simple way to work towards becoming an early riser Whether you want to wake up 20 minutes earlier, 1 hour earlier, or finally build the routine needed to reach a bigger goal, RISER helps you take the next step without making the whole process feel overwhelming. Why people use RISER: • To build an earlier wake-up habit that lasts • To reduce snoozing and start the day with more intention • To make progress without jumping to an unrealistic schedule • To follow a plan that feels manageable enough to maintain Waking up earlier is easy to talk about and much harder to do consistently. RISER is designed to close that gap. It gives you a realistic path from where you are now to where you want to be, one morning at a time. Set your start time. Set your goal. Let RISER help you wake up earlier with a plan you can actually stick to. Note: RISER requires a Premium Upgrade for some features, which can be managed or cancelled at any time via your Apple ID Settings. Free usage available to all users.

Choose "above," "below," or "between" comparisons to fine-tune exactly when you want to be alerted. SMART NOTIFICATION CONTROL Never get spammed again. Define time windows for when alerts are active, set maximum notifications per hour and per day, enforce minimum intervals between alerts, and configure quiet hours so you only hear from us when it matters. DUAL WEATHER ENGINE Powered by Apple WeatherKit with automatic Open-Meteo fallback. If one data source goes down, the other takes over seamlessly so you never miss a critical alert. PRIORITY LEVELS Assign Normal, High, or Critical priority to each rule. Critical alerts can break through Do Not Disturb so you always see the most important weather updates. KEY FEATURES - Unlimited custom alert rules (Pro) - 9 weather condition types to monitor - Smart time window and quiet hour controls - Frequency caps to prevent notification spam - Dual data source for reliability - Priority-based alert system - Background weather monitoring - Notification health dashboard - Location-based alerts - iCloud sync across devices (Pro) FREE VS PRO Free: Up to 3 alert rules, 1 location, 7-day history Pro: Unlimited rules, unlimited locations, full history, iCloud sync, and more SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION: - Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. - Subscription automatically renews unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. - You can manage and cancel your subscriptions by going to your account settings on the App Store after purchase. - Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when the user purchases a subscription.
