* Nature sounds is a wonderful tool to help bring out the best of your mood and motivation after waking up. Bird Alarm Clock application will help you with this. It's very important to start your day with a good mood. NOTE: Notifications have to be allowed for alarm to ring. Relax & fall asleep with beautiful bird sounds. I recommend it (for the alarms).For those who love nature, birds.
#APPLE ALARM CLOCK SOUNDS DOWNLOAD UPDATE#
I will update if they email me back, which I do not believe they will. I emailed Apple PR to ask why this is and they haven’t gotten back to me, even though at this point I have emailed them about it four or five times, and I am simply a curious “Bedtime” user, and I demand respect. You can turn this off, but it doesn’t warn you about it, so be forewarned: You have to turn this function off or your boyfriend’s gonna be like, “Hello?”įor whatever reason, Apple seems to think the majority of its alarm-needing consumers would rather be jolted to life by Casio keyboard pre-programmed jingles than eased awake by something gentle. The one thing I will warn you about concerning the Bedtime feature is that, by default, it mutes notifications after your set bedtime. This is how the alarms act when waking you up, too: they get gradually louder and louder until you’re awake. Instead, each of the Bedtime options fades in from silence. The agonizing task of choosing an alarm in “Alarm” - having to deal with a blaring noise coming from every selected option until you just pick one because you can’t fucking deal with the noise anymore - is now a non-issue. Rather than sounding like they were composed by a demonically possessed clown and intended for torture, each of them sounds like a pillow company start-up hired Brian Eno to make custom alarms for their app. Here are the names of some of the alarms in Bedtime: “Early riser,” “Birdsong,” “First light,” “Springtide.” I guess they aren’t that much better than the regular alarm names now that I’m looking at those (“Illuminate,” “Ripples,” “Silk”), but I do think you can tell they’re more soothing. The best part of Bedtime, though, is that it offers an entirely different set of alarms from the main alarms tab of the clock app. This is to the enjoyment of no one, but you have to fill silences somehow. And if the notification happens while I’m out in public, it gives me something to say, which is: “Oops, it’s my bedtime!” At which point I show that, on my phone, it says it’s my bedtime. The push-alert reminder about bedtime feels sweet - like my phone is looking out for me, telling me to go to bed. As I keep my phone on my bedside table, I am not sure how it would have any of this information, but also I don’t need it, because I know how I sleep, which is: not great. The Bedtime section also offers various data about the quality of your sleep, apparently by tracking your movement in bed. At bedtime, your phone chimes with a few notes from Brahms’s Lullaby and tells you that, if you’d like to get however many hours of sleep there are between your set bedtime and wake-up times, it is now time for bed. There’s a tab in your clock app called “Bedtime.” Have you looked at it? Inside, you can set a bedtime and a wake-up time for yourself. (There’s a particularly bad one called “By the Sea,” which is a harsh seaside-themed tone-song, in case you’d like to feel frightened awake but also like you’re on vacation.) I don’t know why anyone would want to wake up to any of these, but luckily you don’t have to, and I will tell you how not to. Or they’re like “Marimba,” which is even worse. You know how all of the iPhone alarm options are like this: HONK, HONK, HONK, HONK, REEEEAAAR, REEAAAR, WHOOOOOP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, or whatever? They’re so awful, just a bunch of jarring boops and beeps. This is so boring but please keep reading.
