About Wakeup Light Alarm Clock
Want to wake up more relaxed, in a better mood? I suggest you try this Alarm Clock.
"Personal Sunrise" is a dawn simulator for Android devices. It helps to wake up more easily in the morning, as your body prepares for wakeup due to the increasing light of the display. No more waking up from deep slep phases.
You can try the app for longer than 2 hours - I will re-fund you without hesitation if you it does not fulfill your needs. You need to have several days to find out. If it does not satisfy you, please drop me a note with your order ID and - may I kindly ask - the reason so that I have a chance to improve the app.
Enhanced features include support of:
the Hue Personal Lighting System from Philips
the FHEM home automation (allows commanding the coffee machine, roller blinds, ...)
Wikipedia says "Dawn simulation is a technique originally developed to help treat seasonal affective disorder, but can be used as a soundless alarm clock to wake up the body naturally. Typically, the treatment involves timing lights in the bedroom to come on gradually, over a period of 30 minutes to 2 hours, before awakening.". WakeLight offers you several configuration options for the light simulation (sequence length, brightness curve, min/max brightness) and the sound (alarm sound, snooze timing and sound) in combination with the comfort of periodic alarm templates (with single-alarm removal), and of course single-alarm times. See the pictures. This app is very handy when you're travelling: take your dawn simulation with you!
☆ ☆ ☆
It was intended to be used with tablets of at least 7 inches, but I have enough positive feedback of users with even smaller devices to be able to state it can be good to try with such a small device (especially, of course, if you want to use Hue lights). It depends on your light sensitivity, of course, and the brightness of your environment - but you will be astonished as it works subconscious. Just try, I think you will not regret it.
Anyway, using HUE or FHEM the size of the device does not matter any more at all!These systems will handle the simulation.
Features:
✓ alarm templates for repetition as well as one-time alarms
✓ alarm tone can be internal tones, ringtones, playlists, external music and music stream from the internet
✓ disable or change alarm time even of a one-time alarm of a template
✓ brightness, duration and sounds configurable, some sounds contained in the package
✓ optional display of weather forecast and sunrise/set times (using the free plugin downloadable from the shop)
✓ clean and easy-to-use user interface
✓ optionally display a clock with automatic brightness control (in case a brightness sensor is available) that gets brighter when touched
✓ optional text-to-speech reading of the actual time during the alarm
✓ external apps can set alarms using the standard intent, for example Google Now "wake me up at 6:30"
✓ 'dusk simulation': a red display will to improve falling asleep as well as your sleep.
…and much more…

It didn't work at first. Thanks for contacting me so quickly and assist with the set-up. Now it works with the flashlight feature and everything.

Love that a light comes on 30 minutes before the alarm does. Sometimes I don't even have to hear the alarm because the light wakes me before it goes off.

Instead of spending $100 on a wake light machine and having yet another thing on my night stand, I bought this app. It works great, I use it on my tablet and phone. I wake up refreshed without being jolted out of sleep.

Have a Moto X with Marshmallow. Set up the alarm and it worked great except the alarm would not turn off. Had to uninstall the app to get the alarm turned off. But I am awake.

I use and like this app. However, I've had a number of issues. The designer is very good about fixing issues immediately, but I didn't sign up to be a beta tester. I reported one issue, it was fixed. Two to three other bugs later occurred - and I'm just dealing with it. Love waking up to music and light, however, and this app is only game in town so it is worth the $. Nexus 7. Android 5.0.2 (Edit: more specifics, bumped rating)

Works great. U.I. could use a little polishing to make it easier to use, but an app that works 100% as promised.

Waking up in the morning isn't a nearly impossible task anymore. Especially here in Northern Europe where winters are quite gloomy, a bit of light during the waking up process makes all the differece for the whole day, at least for me, I've noticed. :)

this app work really well, and I always wake up about 2 min before the audio alarm goes off, because of the slowly increasing brightness. my cat likes it too! as it gets lighter, he walks on the bed over to my phone, snuggles down, and waits for the tone to sound!

Update: the programmer had me contact him for more details after my request and he added the feature within a day! Seven stars!------------------------- I know its not designed for phones, but that is what I am using. With only the phone screen it obviously is not as bright so it does not always wake me, but it still a soft ambient light when the sound wakes me. Would get 5 starts if I could find a way to set it as the default alarm for use with Google Now's voice feature.

It works exactly as specified from day 1... which is much more than most other alarm apps
