Light Alarm — Wake-Up Light 4+

This could be awesome

The concept is brilliant and I was looking forward to waking up more naturally. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to work consistently. Twice out of three times it has forgotten the time in the middle of the night. I’m not sure what could be causing that. It is charging on my nightstand so it can’t be losing charge.
I hope it’s a bug that can be fixed but I can’t rely on it at the moment.

Brilliant!

I love this app! So simple, just set the time you’d like to wake up and press sleep. The slow wake up light is lovely and I like the natural bird noises that join in at the end. If you don’t like the bird noises, you could just turn your volume down and set another alarm if you need the noise as well as light. First review I’ve ever written because the app has made my mornings easier, it deserves the attention and five stars!

Not sure…

There is no option to remove bird sound, despite it saying so in the description? Also, does the app need to opened or just on in the background to work?

Developer Response ,

There’s a bird icon at the top — after you start the alarm.
Unfortunately, the app needs to kept open in the foreground to work. This is a reasonable iOS restriction — apps can’t unlock the phone on threir behalf.
