TIME TO ENJOY SETTING YOUR ALARM CLOCK
Reach out and touch the screen. Every element is meant to be interactive. Left handed? Yes, Rise loves you, too.

Pull it up or down and watch the sky change as you pick a wake up time. Turn the alarm on by pulling the screen left or right.

Or, simply shake your device to quickly set an alarm for a short nap or to use as a timer.

WAKING UP IS A BEAUTIFUL THING
Wake up to the sound of the woods, ease into the day with a custom Rise melody, or your favorite song from iTunes.

Tap to snooze and be a little late, or pull the screen to turn off the alarm and be on time. Hey, its your life.

From the lock screen: Shake to snooze or turn off the alarm.

MULTIPLE ALARMS HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS EASY (With in-app purchase)
Easily create repeating alarms for any time with custom labels for each alarm. Toggle all your alarms on or off from one screen. Rise will always show the next alarm when you open the app.

A BETTER ALARM NEEDS A BETTER CLOCK
Large clock in either portrait or landscape (for docked devices) with clock background options: Night or Skyscape. Swipe to change the clock background and dim the screen by sliding up or down.

LET RISE HELP YOU FALL (ASLEEP)
Use SleepTunes to make a playlist from your iTunes collection to help you fall asleep. Set a timer for your playlist so it doesnt run all night.

NOTES
- Rise is made for iOS 9+ compatible devices.
- Rise works with "Do Not Disturb" and the silence switch as long as its in the foreground and / or auto-locked when using those two features.

Pros and cons of Rise Alarm Clock app for iPhone and iPad

Rise Alarm Clock app good for

Its intuitive to use, simple but has all the features anyone is going to need. Set time to the minute, multiple alarms, wake to tones or your iTunes. I might be forgetting a few things but this is what I need. The alarm clock competition in the App Store is stupid, these things are practically turning into operating systems trying to out do each other with useless features. Its for waking up people, stick to simple and nice to look at!
Been using this App for almost a year now and I love it. Easy to use and most important issue: it is reliable ! The service and support is great as I had to use it once. Great alarm clock !
I have been using this app for several years. It continues to work as well as it always did for me...before and after the major update. Not sure I have not had any issue while others have. It is installed on two fully update iPhone 6 and one fully updated iPad Pro. I use it 5 nights a week reliably
The initial upgrade for iOS 10 was dreadful as many have said. The recent update fixed most of the challenges and so I have put the rating back to 4 stars. This has been a wonderful app for years and I remain hopeful the remaining comments will be addressed soon.
Love the app very clean. I love the fact that youre not out of touch with pop culture. (I always closely read the theatrical update notes)
Works wonderfully - never a problem, always reliable. Even after an hour of snooze-hitting. PLUS Im entertained with every new update, waiting to find whatever Easter egg the developers feel like planting. Michael Myers indeed...

Some bad moments

The application crashes on start-up after the upgrade to v5.0, but the alarms are still active. The only way to mute them is to uninstall the app. Please fix this issue.
This alarm clock comes with the very basic functions and one alarm only for $2.79. If youd like to have multiple alarms or better alarm sounds, you should pay extra. I am very disappointed.
After the latest update, the app opens, plays music for two seconds then crashes. Cant get it to work at all. Very frustrating as I have been relying on it for quite a while now.
Since the most recent update Ive found that the alarm occasionally doesnt make any noise. Not a very useful alarm if its silent. Also disappointed to lose the motivational quotes on wake.
App has been glitchy since it updated to its new version. App closes on its own without allowing me to shut an opened alarm. Had to delete the app in order to shut the alarm off!
Even when set correctly and left with the volume and ringer on, this alarm has not gone off on several occasions for me. An unreliable alarm is a useless alarm. The old version was never a problem.
