What's new in Smart Alarm

Every version, newest first — from the release notes of Versions: 8.

Version 1.1.0

Cloud is off in this version: alarms, history and photos stay on your phone.
Version 1.1.0. It includes everything added since 1.0: the photo diary, settings transfer, the Apple Watch app and morning music.

Version 1.0.0

Imported alarms are added disabled; existing schedules remain. Camera permissions, photo-diary consent and exchange settings are not imported and must be checked on the device. Enroll NFC tags again.
Settings now includes Settings transfer: export a diagnostic JSON file and import with confirmation. Photos, personal diary, alarm names and coordinates are excluded; alarm times and time zone are included.
Fixed a missed photo-diary start when an alarm task opened before unlocking: the first capture starts when the task becomes visible, including Mental math.
Preparing cross-app exchange is a separate switch, off by default. Events remain local: PsyGames, Chess & Go, TypeRIGHTing and a shared account are not connected yet. Photos and personal notes are not transferred.
Expand Watch and apps in Settings and enable Apple Watch. Session results are saved on Watch and received on iPhone without duplicates after reconnection. The primary alarm remains on iPhone; Watch does not stop or snooze it yet.
Added an Apple Watch companion: the next alarm time, breathing with a smooth circle, and a short left / right / do not tap game.
Built-in melodies start softly and rise over about 15 seconds. Re-save existing alarms to apply this setting. The system backup sound is unchanged; on iPhone the fade-in repeats when the sound file repeats.
Settings are organized into nine collapsed sections. Sound, next to vibration, now includes a melody volume slider from 20 to 100%.
Tap a diary photo to open it fullscreen, with pinch zoom, pan and reset zoom.
The camera has more time to start; a temporary diary initialization error no longer disables later sessions. The diary explains missing-photo reasons. Camera failure never blocks completing a task or stopping the alarm.
This extra photo is labeled During the task. It does not mark completion or replace the after-session photo. Releasing the finger or backgrounding cancels the current capture attempt.
Photo diary has a separate Rainbow: photo on number 9 switch. While correctly holding 9, the white screen temporarily brightens for capture. Off by default; requires camera/storage consent and opt-in for the individual alarm.
The fullscreen switch is available for every practice, not only eyes. Phase guidance and circular indicators stay visible; pause and help remain accessible at the bottom.
Fixed a build 49 regression: combinations show the breathing shape, pelvic-floor exercise and eye exercises together again. Fullscreen no longer hides selected practices.
Photo settings no longer expand the bottom bar. Diary photos are shown fully without unnecessary cropping or repeated flicker; camera use remains optional.
Fast phases use a brief gentle haptic cue. Combo illustrations no longer change on their own or get covered by a breathing orb; face massage guidance has been updated.
Eye exercises use the full available screen. Two dots move horizontally, vertically, diagonally and in a circle; the selected mode is saved for future voluntary sessions.
Updated practice layout: two circular indicators with full labels, contrasting breathing outlines and more room for exercises. Removed the duplicate breathing timer.
Camera refusal or failure never blocks exercises or alarm stopping. Skipped sessions are not marked completed; private photo screens are excluded from automatic feedback screenshots.
Photos stay on this device without cloud backup. View photos, self-rated alertness and deletion controls in Journal. You can keep session facts without taking photos.
Optional before/after photo diary for practices and wake tasks. Set up the camera in Settings → Photo diary, then opt into sessions and individual alarms. Off by default.
Existing sounds and settings do not change automatically. iPhone backup alerts keep the system sound.
Three new morning alarm sounds: Dawn, Awakening and Movement. Choose one when editing an alarm.
Warm-up actions and selected practices share one row. Feedback and diary controls remain accessible above the keyboard.
Holding Schulte numbers now colors the entire screen, not just the button. The challenge heading is more compact.
Three explicit wake presets: Gentle, Focused and Get up. You can still adjust the challenge manually.
Choose each alarm’s sound: system default or eight bundled sounds including singing bowls, soft relax, rain and ocean waves. Soft sounds may not wake you; iPhone backup alerts keep the system sound.
Alarm sound is silenced while completing a wake task; backup alerts remain armed if the app closes.
Random wake tasks use your selected pool: Schulte, arithmetic, reaction or hold-to-complete Schulte.
New hold-to-complete Schulte mode: hold numbers 1 through 9 for the corresponding seconds, with rainbow, black and white completion colors.
Alarm cards take less space. The schedule switch sits beside the time; settings and warnings remain available.
The practice builder has a shorter heading without repeated titles; catalog counts remain available.
Practice help, tutorial and start controls now share one compact row.
Each new alarm starts at the current time plus two minutes. Existing alarm times remain unchanged.
Stopping, snoozing or backgrounding the app turns off the light border and restores the previous brightness.
Wake-up tasks now use a dark screen regardless of the app theme. Light borders turn on automatically while the alarm rings; you can disable them for each alarm.
The practice screen makes the current mode and simultaneous exercises clearer. Illustrations, instructions, music, haptics and controls remain available.
The practice builder shows your selected exercises, total duration and start control. Extra settings expand separately; all modes and programs remain available.
The next alarm and a large morning-start button now appear before habits and the day journal. Expand those cards when you need them.
Fixed opening wake-up tasks, stopping alarms and snoozing on iPhone. Snoozing preserves errors and the snooze limit without replacing the main alarm schedule.
Numbers in the wake-up grid are no longer clipped on smaller screens.
Fixed wake-up tasks reopening after stopping an alarm or reaching the error limit.
The Bedtime screen notices right away when you stop the sound from the notification.
Practices now has Help and Tutorial at the bottom: five short cards and a one-minute live trial.
“Add alarm” now stays at the bottom of the Alarms tab.
Kegel with breathing: the squeeze again lasts through the exhale and the hold after it — equal hold and rest.
“Done” and “Good night” stay at the bottom of the screen; both buttons after the warm-up are equal.
Haptic taps in wake-up tasks, check-ins and routines, and a distinct pulse when an exercise is done.
Light: the screen edges glow while the middle stays dark — soft light for selfies and video calls. Sun icon at the top.
Music during exercises: tap the note on the practice screen; your choice is remembered.
Eight sleep sounds: pink noise, rain, ocean waves, soft relax and singing bowls are new.
The app now follows your phone's language until you pick another one.
Smart Alarm 1.0 — the first App Store release. Same features as 0.4.6.

Version 0.4.6

The app is almost 9 MB lighter: practice figures now use a compact format.
Practices use the same scene as PsyGames: the picture sits inside the phase frame, and guide lines stay readable on the body.

Version 0.4.5

A pause after the exhale no longer asks for a Kegel squeeze.
Breathing combined with a body exercise: a breathing ball grows on the inhale and shrinks on the exhale; the Kegel ring is solid while you squeeze and dashed while you relax.
Practices now show the full instruction and a two-line step title, so nothing important is cut off.
After an update, see changes from every missed build. Release history is available in Settings.

New sunrise alarm app icon.
