Why SproutAwake?

Loud Alarms for Heavy Sleepers

Alarm sounds engineered to cut through deep sleep. Built for people who sleep through the default iPhone alarm.

Wake-Up Missions

Solve a math problem, shake your phone, finish a puzzle, unscramble a word, or find a household object to turn the alarm off. You can't snooze your way out of it.

Real Trees with One Tree Planted

50% of proceeds go to One Tree Planted, a verified reforestation nonprofit active in over 80 countries. Monthly tree-planting updates are posted on TikTok at @sprout.alarm.

Points, Streaks & Rewards

Earn points every time you beat your alarm and build streaks for not snoozing. Spend points in the shop on themes, alarm sounds, and animated effects.

Next-Alarm Widget

A home screen widget shows your next alarm at a glance, so you never have to wonder whether it's set.

Rings Through Silent & Focus

Built on Apple's AlarmKit for iOS 26, so alarms ring through Silent mode, Focus, and Do Not Disturb, just like the built-in Clock app.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SproutAwake?

SproutAwake is an iPhone alarm clock app for heavy sleepers that plants real trees. It uses loud alarm sounds and wake-up missions to make sure you get out of bed, and 50% of its proceeds go to the reforestation nonprofit One Tree Planted. It's made by Newmanship, an indie studio run by developer Ethan Newman.

Is SproutAwake a good alarm for heavy sleepers?

Yes - it's designed for them. The alarm sounds are engineered to cut through deep sleep, and you can't just tap to dismiss: you have to complete a wake-up mission like a math problem, a puzzle, a word unscramble, shaking your phone, or finding a household object. By the time it's done, you're awake.

How does SproutAwake plant trees?

50% of SproutAwake's proceeds are donated to One Tree Planted, a verified reforestation nonprofit that plants trees in over 80 countries. Monthly updates on how many trees have been planted are posted on the SproutAwake TikTok account, @sprout.alarm.

What are wake-up missions?

Wake-up missions are short tasks you must complete to turn off your alarm: solving a math problem, shaking your phone, finishing a puzzle, unscrambling a word, or finding a household object. They stop you from dismissing the alarm half-asleep and drifting back off.

Will SproutAwake ring when my iPhone is on silent or in Focus mode?

Yes. SproutAwake uses Apple's AlarmKit (iOS 26 and later), which lets alarms ring through Silent mode, Focus, and Do Not Disturb, just like the built-in Clock app.

Is SproutAwake free?

SproutAwake is free to download. SproutAwake Pro costs $4.99 per month or $29.99 per year. Optional point packs start at $0.99. Half of all proceeds go to tree planting.

What's included in SproutAwake Pro?

Pro includes unlimited alarms, all wake-up mission types, and premium themes. It costs $4.99 per month or $29.99 per year, and 50% of it goes to planting real trees.

What devices does SproutAwake work on?

SproutAwake is available for iPhone and requires iOS 26 or later. It isn't available on Android yet.

How is SproutAwake different from Alarmy and other mission alarm apps?

Like Alarmy and other mission-based alarm apps, SproutAwake makes you complete a task before the alarm turns off. The difference is what your mornings support: 50% of SproutAwake's proceeds fund tree planting through One Tree Planted, and you earn points and streaks for not snoozing.
