Rouse: Alarms Routines Timers2.0.0 - App Store

Rouse keeps you on time and on track - alarms that fire through Silent Mode, timed routines with voice coaching, and private on-device sleep insights. Morning routine, HIIT workout, Pomodoro study session, or just making sure you wake up.

Your alarms actually work. Built on Apple's AlarmKit for iOS 26, they survive Silent Mode, Do Not Disturb, Focus, restarts, and app updates - the same system-level reliability as the built-in Clock app, with far more features.

TIMED ROUTINES WITH VOICE COACHING
Build step-by-step routines for any part of your day. Voice coaching announces each step hands-free - for mornings when you're still waking up, workouts when your phone is across the room, or study sessions when you'd rather not look at a screen.

- 20+ presets: morning, HIIT, Pomodoro, meditation, study, kids bedtime, shift work
- HIIT repeat groups - set 4 exercises, repeat 8 times, voice counts every round
- Second-precision steps for Tabata, EMOM, and interval circuits
- Voice announces countdowns, step transitions, and time elapsed & remaining
- Live Activity shows progress on your Lock Screen
- One routine free with full voice coaching; Premium unlocks unlimited routines and repeat groups

RELIABLE ALARMS
AlarmKit-powered alarms fire through Silent Mode, DND, Focus, and restarts. No notification workarounds. Real system-level alarms.

- 10 wake-up missions: Math, Shake, QR Code, Steps, Pattern, Photo Match, Typing, Puzzle, Rotation, Language + chains
- Snooze degradation, rescue alarms, cascading escalation
- Smart Alarm detects light sleep for gentler wake-ups
- Wake-Up Check confirms you're actually awake

TIMERS WITH VOICE ANNOUNCEMENTS
Set cooking timers, focus blocks, or nap alarms - voice announcements count down the final seconds and confirm when time's up from across the room. Timer Check follows up if you miss it.

MILESTONE COUNTDOWNS
Count down to the dates that matter - and count up from the ones you'll never forget. Birthdays, retirements, sobriety, due dates, anniversaries, exam dates, deadlines. Each countdown auto-flips when the date arrives.

- Recurring countdowns - set "Christmas" once, it rolls forward yearly
- 31 one-tap holiday templates: Christmas, Easter, Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, Lunar New Year, and more - locale-aware
- Streak tracking on count-ups: best streak + reset count for sobriety, no-spend days, habits
- Tap to cycle display formats: years, months, days, hours, colon, full units
- Up to 5 alerts per countdown with smart Focus behavior
- Timezone-anchored, so a date set anywhere reads the same everywhere
- Lock Screen widget for your most important date

2 countdowns free; unlimited with Premium.

Version History Rouse is now 100% private.

- Your account is gone. Rouse no longer creates one — not even an anonymous one. There's nothing to sign in to and nothing to delete.
- Sleep and health data never leaves your device. Not even to us. All AI — sleep stories, reports, briefings — now runs entirely on your iPhone.
- No analytics, no ads, no trackers. Same as always, now with nothing to qualify.

Rouse still talks to Apple and RevenueCat, our payment processor, for purchases, Apple for weather, and downloads a small settings file at launch. That's the whole list.

NEW: BACK UP YOUR SETUP
No account means nothing of yours sits on a server — so Rouse now lets you export your alarms, timers, routines, and countdowns to a file you keep, and import it on a new iPhone. Settings > Data & Privacy.

If you used cloud-generated sleep stories, those now run on-device instead — same features, nothing sent anywhere. Sign in with Apple is gone too, because there's no longer anything to sign in to. Your purchases stay tied to your App Store account as always; use Restore Purchases on a new device. 2.0.0 Aug 19 Countdowns are here. Count down to any future date — or count up from any past date.
