Comments on Gentle Wakeup: Sun Alarm Clock for Android
★★★★★Kristin Newell· Feb 24, 2026
I've been using this app for about 8+ years now, and I like how it wakes me up with gentle natural sounds, like waves or birds (among other options). it's a much nicer way to wake up than being startled awake and getting an unnecessary large surge of cortisol with typical alarms. I also like that you can choose specific days of the week, week days, weekends, etc. the alarms are very customizable. I would definitely recommend this app to others, and I have many times to friends and family.

Still love this app after many years of using it. I wake up gradually every day with light and birds chirping, instead of being jolted awake by a sound alarm. 🥰 only a few glitches on rare occasions.
★★★★★Pam Risley· Feb 22, 2026
I enjoy waking up to the pleasant sounds of birds rather than an alarm. When I set this alarm, I have no doubt it will wake me in the morning.

I was excited to find this app, but the free version is unworkable due to takeover by adverts. I could get it to work a few times initially, but now I'm unable to use it without advert after advert, each lasting a minute, then I can't get back to the app. If it was simply, 'watch a minute advert then you can set your alarm for the next day', I could cope, but I can't even check if the alarm has been set without another advert. I'm giving it another try today: maybe I'm missing something.

Terrible app. Never got any of it to work. The one alarm that sort of went off didn't have any sound despite me setting it up, and said I had hit snooze the instant it went off without touching it. I was holding my phone in my hand, wide awake, just testing it. Uninstalling.

I never had to watch an ad to set an alarm. Downloaded many apps in the past, but that was a first. Way too complicated. Way too demanding for control of my phone.

Had the setting with lights and birds chirping. After a week or so the birds stopped chirping, so I woke up late 3 times in a row. Yes, all permissions needed are granted. Sorry, have to uninstall this. This is unacceptable.
