RiseUp Today

Alarm clock for Android

Wake up to a voice you chose.

RiseUp Today plays a speech you recorded yourself — in your own voice, or the voice of someone you love — at the minute you set. Not a beep. Words that mean something to you.

How it works

Set it up once, then just sleep.

Record a speech

Say what you need to hear, or ask someone you love to. You can also import an audio file you already have.

Pick a mood

Each alarm has a mood with its own colour, so the screen you wake to feels like the speech you hear.

Set the time and sleep

At the minute you chose, your speech plays over the lock screen and keeps going until you are up.

Four moods

Every mood comes with a short starter speech, read aloud by a text-to-speech voice, so your first alarm works straight away. Replace it with your own voice whenever you are ready.

Motivation

Hustle

High-energy, get-up-and-go pep talk.

Calm

Mindful

Gentle, grounding, low-pressure wake-up.

Discipline

Tough love

Direct, no-excuses accountability.

Gratitude

Positive

Warm, appreciative, optimistic framing.

Yours, and private

An alarm you sleep next to should not be watching you.

No account, no ads

Nothing to sign up for, nothing selling your mornings.

We never receive your recordings

They are stored on your phone. The only thing the app ever sends is an anonymous crash report if it breaks, and you can switch that off.

A built-in alarm check

If something on your phone, like battery settings, is likely to stop an alarm, the app tells you and shows you how to fix it.
