Structured Integration: Wake-Up Time Sync
Automatically shift tasks in Structured when your wake-up time changes.
Morning Briefing: Log Emotion/Mood
Log your daily mood to notice patterns and gain insights.
Setting alarms for powernaps
I’d really love to add alarms outside schedules, like when I really need a nap that I can start a 30-minute timer and select a loud sound and do a task to really wake.
Multiple Schedules with Ability to Name Them
Hello, I am writing in to request a feature where you can create multiple schedules and then toggle them on and off. Monday-Thursday schedule called “Office 7 AM Alarm”, then another Monday-Thursday schedule called “Office 7:30 AM Alarm”, then doing the same for just Friday.

Structured Integration: Morning Briefing also showing upcoming tasks
I don’t care what’s already happened. I want to know what’s ahead for my day. And don't be afraid to make this part a bit more info-heavy, as I’d expect there's a lot ahead for me each day. I always have a variety of appointments at a variety of times. But my sleep’s always the same & so this is all I see… If I’ll always have to open Structured for my full briefing, then so be it, but if I could customise how complex my summary on Awake is, that would be fantastic 🤩🤩🤩
Shortcuts support
hello! I have most of the things I do with my phone automated including setting alarms. It would be amazing if Awake would allow me to set a time for its alarm in shortcuts and enable it disable them.

Import Own Sounds

Gently Rising Volume
I'm really missing an option of progressively rising the alarm volume from zero to max over set amount of time, to gently wake me and not startle me (and my partner). This would pair nicely with a wider selection of gentle alarm sounds.
Localization
Localizing Awake to more languages, similar to Structured. Currently, Awake is available in 🇬🇧 English, 🇩🇪 German, 🇫🇷 French, 🇪🇸 Spanish, 🇮🇹 Italian, 🇵🇹 Portuguese, 🇳🇱 Dutch, and 🇮🇳 Hindi. Please let us know in the comments which languages we should add. 😊
Siri AI
Introducing Siri AI on iOS 27. You can already test it in the beta.
Awake lives inside Dynamic Island Activity
As the title suggests, it seems like awake app is living as a dynamic island activity. Current behavior: Device: iphone 16 pro Even when closing the awake app (or just exiting it) whenever I press the dynamic island it reopens the awake app, sugessting that it is a live activity. This impacts iphone normal behavior: Dynamic island is empty, you open an activity, let’s say voice memo recording, and it stays in the middle of the dynamic island. If openening another activity, for example flashlight, it opens on the side of the dynamic island. Awake being already a non-stop dynamic island activity makes the iphone (from the user’s perspective) be able to hold only 1 activity, on the side Not sure if this is intentional, but it seems invasive and altering normal ios behavior

Morning Briefing: Journaling
Start your day by logging your thoughts or dreams in your morning briefing.
Stacked Missions
Please add an option to stack several missions to always go with the alarm, one by one, instead of choosing a random mission from the list of chosen ones every morning.
More Alarm Sound Options
A natural bird song alarm that starts soft and gradually gets louder over the course of 2 minutes.
Set a wake up time based on an existing event/task
e.g., 30 minutes before sunrise or an hour before my first appointment.
Mission: Sudoku
Mission: Typing
Typing prompt as a wake up mission.
iCloud sync/backup
A way to backup/import/export settings, please?
Morning Briefing: More details on tasks & events
Instead of just the first task of the day, I’d love to see an overview of my whole day.
Briefing: News Integration
Would love to see top things to know or trending news stories of the day from apps like the Skimm
Awake Watch App
I would love to See Apple Watch Support. I wear my watch at sleep and also using it as an alarm. Individual Missions Like „Walk X steps“ or „bright room“ (don’t know the english word sorry) could work.
Not Possible or Rejected

Smart Wake Function Based on Sleep Cycles
One feature I’d love to see in the future is a Smart Wake option that wakes the user in a light sleep phase, based on circadian rhythm or movement analysis. It would help start the day feeling more refreshed, instead of waking up during deep sleep. Since similar apps already offer this functionality, I believe it could be a great addition to Awake as well. Thanks for your time and your great work! Best regards, Melanie
Apple Health
I think it would be cool if the app connects to apple healths sleep schedule, so if you change it in apple health it also changes in awake. And that the alarm ist on the apple watch too
Increasing Light-Alarm
Simulate a Sunrise from darker orange to brighter Sunlight-yellow in different Time-Options, e.g 10, 20 or 30 Minutes before the Alarm triggers, the screen will turn on and simulate the Sunrise for easier Wake up
Link Awake to Apple Wake-Up Alarm
Automatically adjust awake alarm to whatever Apple Wake-Up alarm is. One method would be making an option in shortcuts to trigger missions, and users can create the automation themselves.
Morning Briefing Todoist Sync
I think the app could benefit from showing today’s tasks in todoist or other to-do apps in morning briefing.
Talking clock alarm option
An option to keep an alarm tone as a taking clock which says the current time along with a background tune. It could be like start with a chime and if there is no response saying the time out loud. Helps with people snoozing a lot and losing track of time.
Apple Music as Alarm Sound
Right now my Apple alarm lets me select a song from my Apple Music library & it’s the only thing that makes me sad about switching to Awake haha
Support other 3rd-Party Calendars
Support other 3rd-Party Calendars like TimeTree in the morning briefing
Multiple active scheduled alarms
This is a bit of a mix of Setting alarms for powernaps and Multiple Schedules with Ability to Name Them as I realised I didn’t see the multiple active alarms aspect explicitly mentioned as part of either of them. Alarms are useful outside of just sleeping and waking up and it would be great to be able to have multiple active alarms in the same day which are scheduled. As a workaround, if Setting alarms for powernaps was implemented, I could schedule my next alarm straight after I’m done with the first and essentially manually schedule my next alarm every time, but ideally I could just add a list of times each day I want an alarm to go off (similar to the stock alarms feature) with different missions for each. I wrote my context for why this would be useful as a comment.
Mission: Stretching
It would be a nice feature, if you could add some stretching exercises to the mission catalogue. Maybe it could also be shown in different categories, e.g. whole body stretching, arm/leg stretching, hips stretching…
