Owake Wake Challenge
Read full descriptionHide full description
Owake is an alarm app built around one rule: you must prove youβre awake. Instead of dismissing your alarm with a simple tap, Owake asks you to read a passage aloud. Your spoken reading is checked against the expected text to determine whether you are actually awake enough to continue. Owake is designed to feel serious, controlled, and fair. It is not a soft reminder app. It is built for people who want mornings to be harder to fake. Features: β’ Speech-based wake challenge β’ Alarm labels, notes, and repeat schedules β’ Support for English, German, French, and Spanish β’ Curated and fallback challenge passages for reliable wake checks β’ User-submitted passage suggestions β’ Clean light and dark themes β’ VoiceOver support, Reduced Motion support, and strong contrast β’ Focused alarm management with a clear, uncluttered experience If you fail the challenge, give up, or miss the wake window, Owake can enter a locked state. To reopen it, you need a one-time unlock purchase. Each lock requires a new purchase. Previous purchases do not automatically clear future locks. Owake is for people who want a stronger wake-up system, not a softer one.
LittyUp

LittyUp is an alarm clock with eight wake-up challenges, scheduled app blocking and a customizable companion. Choose how to stop your alarm, build your morning routine and earn stars with Litty. EIGHT WAYS TO STOP YOUR ALARM Solve math problems, remember a path, find a character in a moving crowd, match Litty's accessories, shake your phone, scan a saved barcode or QR code, find a bright spot with the camera, or walk with Litty while holding your phone. Choose one or more challenges. Each alarm picks one from your selection. Try them in practice mode before your next alarm. If you need help during an alarm, switch to another available challenge. ALARMS THAT FIT YOUR WEEK Set one-time or repeating alarms, choose weekdays and alarm sounds, adjust your next morning or skip a planned day. BLOCK DISTRACTING APPS Choose the apps and websites to block during your morning routine. Blocking lasts for your configured window, even after you complete the alarm challenge. Schedule evening blocking around your next alarm and planned bedtime. App blocking is optional and requires Screen Time permission. COLLECT COMPLETED MORNINGS AND GIFTS Track your completed mornings and calendar history. Missed days do not reset your total. Collect daily stars and milestone gifts, then spend stars on accessories to dress up Litty and save your favorite outfit. REVEAL YOUR MORNING PHOTO Opt in to a candid selfie when you finish an alarm challenge, then reveal it in the evening. Photos stay in your private on-device gallery unless you choose to save or share them. KEEP YOUR ROUTINE IN VIEW Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your next alarm and progress. Live Activities show scheduled app-blocking countdowns. On iPhone Duo, layouts adapt to the folded and open displays. With the phone half-open in landscape, browse accessories on the left and see a larger preview of Littyβs outfit on the right. Requires iOS 26 or later. Light and barcode challenges use the camera, as do optional selfies. Walking also requires camera access. No account is required.
