Wakeling

Terms of Use

Wakeling 1.0.0 · updated August 2026

Wakeling is an alarm, not a safety device

Please read this part. Wakeling depends on iOS to fire an alarm, and on your phone being charged and switched on.

Do not rely on it alone for anything where being woken matters critically — a flight, an exam, a medical dose, a shift where lateness is dangerous. Set a second alarm.

The app is provided as-is, without warranty. To the extent the law allows, the developer is not liable for any loss arising from an alarm that does not sound.

The mission

Wakeling is deliberately difficult to switch off: dismissing it requires completing a physical mission. This is the product working as intended, not a fault.

A fallback is always available if a mission cannot be completed, so you are never locked out of stopping the alarm.

Physical activity

The Squat Mission asks you to exercise, and the walk asks you to walk, immediately on waking. Choose a mission appropriate to your health and your surroundings, and use the fallback if you should not be exercising.

You are responsible for your own safety while completing a mission. Do not use the walking missions anywhere it would be unsafe to walk while half asleep.

Wakeling Pro

Wakeling Pro is an annual auto-renewable subscription. The price is the one shown on the App Store page and on the purchase screen in your own currency, which is the price you are charged.

Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically for a further year unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours of that period ending.

Manage or cancel at any time in Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions. Cancelling stops the next renewal; it does not shorten the period you have already paid for, and Pro keeps working until that period ends.

A one-time Lifetime purchase is also offered. It is paid once, it does not renew, and there is nothing to cancel.

The free trial does not require a card and does not turn into a paid subscription by itself. When it ends, Pro features stop and the alarm keeps working — the alarm and its missions are never behind the paywall. If you buy a subscription while a free trial is running, any unused part of that trial ends at the moment of purchase.

Items bought with love, the in-app currency earned by waking up, are unlocked for your install. Restore Purchases recovers items bought with real money; love and the items it bought are local to the device.

Acceptable use

Do not decompile, resell, or redistribute the app, and do not attempt to defeat the mission checks in a modified build.

The artwork, sounds, characters and code are the property of the developer and may not be extracted or reused.

Changes

These terms and the privacy policy may change as the app changes. The version in the app you are running always describes that version.
