Sunrise Alarm turns your existing HomeKit smart lights into a gradual dawn simulator, no subscription, no new hardware required. Your sunrise runs directly on your Apple TV or HomePod, so it wakes you even if your phone is off, out of battery, or away from home. You'll need an Apple Home hub (Apple TV or HomePod) and at least one HomeKit-enabled light to get started. Most people see measurable improvements in morning alertness and sleep quality in as few as six days. Research in chronobiology shows why: your cortisol awakening response is triggered by light, not sound. A gradual rise from dark to bright works with your biology in a way a loud alarm never can. Works with Philips Hue, Nanoleaf, LIFX, and all other HomeKit-certified devices, including bulbs, strips, blinds, shades, plugs, switches, and more. If it's in your Home app, it works. Your body already knows how to wake up. Now your lights do too. FEATURES - Sequence lights across a room or your whole home, each fading in on its own schedule so the sunrise builds around you - Open blinds, shades, and window coverings on your sunrise schedule, so real daylight, not just your bulbs, joins your wake-up - Customize color, brightness, and fade duration to match your sleep environment - Create different schedules for weekdays, weekends, or any routine - Turn plugs on or off when your alarm runs (coffee maker, heater, fan) REQUIREMENTS - Apple Home Hub (Apple TV or HomePod) and at least one HomeKit-enabled device.
