About Daybreak: Get Up Alarm Clock
Most alarm apps make you sit through a quiz, then ask for your card before you can set a single alarm. Daybreak doesn't. Set your wake time, invite a friend, and get up — free. The whole morning loop works without paying, and it always will. Here's the part that gets you out of bed. THE ALARM YOU CAN'T FAKE Your normal alarm has a design flaw: you can kill it from bed. Daybreak can't be. The only way to end the morning standoff is a photo of a spot you can't reach without standing up — the bathroom mirror, the kitchen counter, the front door. It's matched on your device in a second. No rep-counting, no math, no arguing with a camera. One photo, and you're up. No snooze button exists. YOUR CIRCLE GETS YOU UP Mornings are easier when someone's watching. Invite friends with a code: they see "up" the moment you prove it, you see theirs, and the weekly board settles who owns the morning. First one up gets noticed. It turns out the thing that actually beats the snooze button is not wanting to be the last one still in bed. THE STREAK Every proved morning extends your wake rhythm. Watch the week fill in, set records — earliest wake, perfect weeks — and earn milestone badges. Miss a day? A streak saver can repair it. QUESTS & A MONTHLY CHALLENGE A fresh quest every week — up before 7 all five weekdays, prove both weekend mornings — and one big monthly challenge with a medal that's yours to keep. BUILT FOR YOUR LOCK SCREEN The night before, a countdown to your alarm sits on your lock screen. Your streak lives on a home-screen widget, staring at you. On iOS 26 the alarm is the real thing — full-screen, rings through silent mode, and it stops when you prove you're up, not before. YOUR MORNINGS, KEPT PRIVATE Every proof photo lands in a journal only you can see — a diary you write by getting up. Photos never leave your phone. WHAT'S FREE The alarm, photo proof, your streak, the widget, the journal, quests, badges, and your circle. The morning tool is complete on day one, no trial clock ticking. DAYBREAK PLUS For when you want more: wake with the actual sunrise at your location, unlock your full history and insights, add proof spots for any habit (the gym mirror, your desk), and carry extra streak savers. Plus is $3.99/month or $23.99/year — and it sits on top of the free app, never in front of it. Tomorrow it begins.
