Routine Alarm Clock

Features & Capabilities

Build morning and bedtime routines that actually ring. Chain alarms and countdowns, use Lock Screen Live Activities, and generate routines on-device (where supported).

Build step-by-step alarm routines that actually ring.

Alarm Stacks lets you create stacks like Wake → Hydrate → Stretch → Shower → Leave. The first step can be Start in (a countdown) or Fixed time; later steps can be Fixed time or After previous. Alarms use the system’s full-screen interface and ring even with Silent or Focus enabled. Follow along on the Lock Screen with a Live Activity, skip or snooze a step, or control stacks with Siri and Shortcuts.

Highlights

• Real alarms — System-grade ringing that works even with Silent/Focus on.  • Stacks = routines — First step: Start in or Fixed time. Following steps: Fixed time or After previous.  • Live Activities (Lock Screen) — See countdowns and quick controls at a glance.  • Quick Alarm — Set an alarm for “in X minutes” or “at a time” in two taps.  • Stopwatch & Timer — Simple, precise, each with a Lock Screen Live Activity.  • On-device routine generator (supported devices) — Type “6:30 gym then shower and coffee” and get a proposed stack you can edit before saving.  • Shortcuts & Siri — Arm, disarm, start, stop, or snooze via voice or automations.  • Themes — Pick a colour that suits you.  • No account, no ads, no tracking — Your data stays on your device.

How it works

Create a stack and add steps (first step = Start in or Fixed time; later steps = Fixed time or After previous).
Arm the stack — Alarm Stacks schedules everything for you.
Use the Lock Screen Live Activity to complete, skip, or snooze; the next step starts automatically.

Free vs Plus

Free: up to 2 stacks and 3 steps per stack.

Alarm Stacks Plus: unlimited stacks & steps, extra themes, and future premium features.

Privacy Works entirely on-device. The routine generator also runs on-device on supported hardware. No accounts, no analytics, and no third-party SDKs.

Notes • Allow Time-Sensitive notifications and Live Activities for the best experience.  • Siri/Shortcuts require permission to run voice or automation actions.  • Dynamic Island is present on compatible devices but not yet fully optimised in this version.
