iPhone alarm and focus app
Dawnify
Become the person who gets up, stays up, and protects the first focused block of the day.
Dawnify combines mission alarms, custom wake-up sounds, Pomodoro and countdown timers, Screen Time checks, and app blocking for people who need more than a basic alarm.
Optional Monthly and Yearly subscriptions are sold through the App Store. This website does not sell app access.
How it works
A wake-up flow built around action, not another snooze button.
Complete a mission
When the alarm rings, solve, scan, move, type, speak, or verify a real-world task before the alarm can be dismissed.
Protect the focus block
Move into Pomodoro, countdown, or stopwatch mode and block selected apps through iOS Screen Time during the session.

Features
Alarms, focus, and app blocking in one iPhone app.
Alarm features
Build wake-up alarms with repeat days, snooze controls, emoji labels, gentle wake-up, wake-up checks, wallpapers, and time-zone anchored ringing.
Wake-up missions
Dismiss alarms with math, memory match, typing, color tiles, tic tac toe, steps, shaking, QR/barcode scans, item hunts, squats, push-ups, affirmations, and verse missions.
Pomodoro focus
Run focused work blocks with Pomodoro presets, custom durations, task selection, focus notes, strict mode, flip start, and anti-burn-in display support.
Countdown and stopwatch
Use countdown presets, multi-timer support, stopwatch tracking, lap history, and focused timer modes for study, work, workouts, cooking, or timed sessions.
App blocking
Select distracting apps and lock them during focus or alarm enforcement. App blocking uses iOS Screen Time permission so the phone supports the accountability layer.
Custom sounds
Pick alarm tones, focus sounds, and downloaded sounds, import a song from your library, or record a custom sound up to two minutes and preview it before saving.
Why it exists
Most alarm apps ring. Dawnify is designed to make you respond.
For heavy sleepers
Use high-friction missions so stopping the alarm requires proof.
For distracted mornings
Use wake-up checks, snooze limits, alarm locks, and app blocking.
For focused work
Move from waking up to Pomodoro, countdown, and stopwatch sessions.
