At First Light is an alarm clock that only stops once you're really out of bed. At the chosen time the alarm rings — even with the iPhone locked or silenced — and goes quiet only when your missions are done. You choose which ones, and how many: • Mental math, quiz, missing symbol, odd color out, sequence to remember • Shake the phone, walk, do squats (phone in hand or placed down, with the camera) • Say a sentence in rhythm, read aloud, blow into the microphone • Find an object around the house with the camera, scan a barcode, smile • Type a text, write three gratitudes… and a surprise mission if you like No cheat button: closing the app rings again, and a "Still up?" check can ring a few minutes later to make sure you didn't go back to bed. Your wake-up, your way • Loud or gentle ringtones, your own voice, or a song from your Apple Music library • Gentle wake (rising volume), vibration, extra-loud mode • Wallpapers, verse or quote of the day, spoken reminders (time, weather, message) Your sleep, no watch needed Start night tracking with the iPhone next to you: movement, time to fall asleep, awakenings, snoring, night score and hypnogram. Sleep sounds (rain, waves, fan…) and a bedtime tip. In the morning A Morning tab with the weather, today's calendar and your habits; a report of your wake-ups and nights, week after week, with your sleep debt. Free, and Pro if you want more The free version includes up to 2 missions per alarm and 1 mission for the "Still up?" check, with every sound, wallpaper, night tracking, reports and the widget. At First Light Pro unlocks unlimited missions (5 per alarm, 3 for the check) and the Squats mission: $0.99/month with the first month free, or $4.99 once, forever. Your data stays on your iPhone: no account, no server, no ads, no tracking. Speech recognition runs on the device. Permissions are used only for the missions and features you turn on: microphone, camera, motion, location (weather), calendar, Apple Music, photos.
