About FixSleep
FixSleep is a smart alarm clock app for iOS and Android that helps you wake up refreshed instead of groggy. It times your alarm to the end of a sleep cycle, makes you complete a short mission before the alarm stops, and plays calming sounds to help you fall asleep in the first place.
Who it's for
FixSleep is for anyone who struggles with mornings: heavy sleepers who sleep through alarms, people who hit snooze again and again, shift workers with irregular schedules, and anyone who wakes up groggy even after a full night's sleep.
What the app does
A typical sleep cycle lasts about 90 minutes and moves through light, deep and REM sleep. Waking in deep sleep causes sleep inertia, the heavy, foggy feeling that makes you hit snooze. FixSleep suggests bedtimes and wake times that land at the end of a cycle, when sleep is lightest.
To stop the alarm you complete an alarm mission: solving math problems, tapping, typing a phrase, shaking the phone, walking a number of steps, scanning a QR code or barcode somewhere else in your home, doing push-ups counted by the camera, or finding and photographing a household object. Sleep sounds like rain, ocean waves, white noise, a fan or a camp fire help you drift off, and bedtime reminders keep your schedule consistent.
Pricing and privacy
FixSleep is free to download, with premium features available via subscription.
There's no account to create. Your alarms and settings stay on your phone. Object Hunt photos and the camera view used to count push-ups are checked on your phone and not saved.
Like most apps, FixSleep collects analytics and crash reports so we can fix problems and improve the app. Payments are handled by the App Store or Google Play, and we never see your card details. The privacy policy explains exactly what is collected and why.
Sleep tools on the web
Alongside the app, this website offers calculators anyone can use in the browser without installing anything: a sleep cycle calculator, a jet lag planner and a sleep debt calculator, plus a blog that explains the sleep science behind them.
