Lark

Coming soon to the App Store

Win your mornings.

Lark ends your alarm only after you prove you're out of bed — and keeps score of the mornings you win. One alarm with a mission behind it.

No snoozing. No backup alarms. No negotiating.

It's not a discipline problem.

You're fighting biology. Sleep inertia floods your brain for up to 30 minutes after waking — which is exactly when the snooze button looks like a good idea. Lark removes the negotiation.

1

One alarm rings

A real system alarm that sounds through Silent mode and Focus — just like the built-in Clock. No backup alarms, because backups teach your brain the first one doesn't matter.

2

Prove you're up

The alarm only ends when you finish your mission — find the toothbrush, do the squats, solve the math. Out of bed, moving, awake.

3

Your lark grows

Every morning won extends your streak and evolves your companion, from Hatchling to Golden Lark. Lose a morning, and it feels it too.

Pick your wake-up mission

Every mission gets you out of bed and proves it — with the camera, the mic, or your own two feet. Each one comes with the science of why it wakes you up.

Item search

The camera hunts a real household object — your toothbrush, the coffee mug, the fridge. Lark rolls one each morning, so you can't stage it from bed.

Movement

Push-ups and squats, counted by the camera. Wake the body to wake the mind — nothing clears sleep inertia like blood flow.

Math

Arithmetic that forces your prefrontal cortex online. Simple enough to solve, hard enough that you have to actually wake up.

Speak it

Read an affirmation out loud — “I'm up. Today is mine.” On-device speech recognition confirms you said it.

Photo proof

A picture of the sky, your made bed, or grass under your feet. If you can photograph the morning, you're in it.

QR anchor

Scan a code you stuck in the bathroom. The alarm doesn't end until you've physically walked there.

Your lark keeps the score

Every morning won feeds your streak, and your streak grows the bird. Five stages, nine medals, a full morning log — and if you lose a morning, your lark droops until you win one back.

The camera never phones home.

Wake-up missions are processed entirely on your iPhone with Apple's on-device frameworks — camera frames and microphone audio are never stored, never uploaded. We collect anonymous usage analytics and crash reports to make Lark better, and that's where it ends: no ads, no ad trackers, and your data is never sold.
