How does VeriWake's mission alarm work?

Choose the time, repeat schedule, sound and mission for each alarm. When it rings, complete the selected mission. A successful check finishes that alarm session and stops the associated alarms.

Is VeriWake designed for heavy sleepers and chronic snoozers?

It is designed for people who dismiss ordinary alarms on autopilot, set several alarms or fall back asleep after tapping Stop. A mission adds a deliberate first action, but no alarm app can guarantee a wake-up or replace adequate sleep.

Is VeriWake available for iPhone and Android?

Yes. VeriWake is available for iPhone and Android, with the same 12 wake-up missions. Read about VeriWake for iPhone or VeriWake for Android for platform details.

Can I snooze or dismiss the alarm from bed?

Dismissing the system alert does not count as completing the selected mission. If the mission is unfinished, VeriWake can trigger a limited series of repeat alarms for that same session. It does not promise an endless or impossible-to-stop alarm.

What happens if I force-quit the app?

Closing the app does not count as completing a mission. Reopen VeriWake to return to an unfinished mission within its recovery window. Alarm and background behavior also depend on your operating system and device settings.

How are wake-up missions checked?

The check depends on the mission. Exercise and pose missions track key points on your body, object and scene missions use camera evidence and local machine learning, text missions use text recognition, spoken missions use speech recognition, math requires correct answers, and Catch the Sunrise uses augmented reality.

Which alarm challenges can I choose?

VeriWake includes Push-Ups, Squats, Make the Bed, Find an Item, Find a Bible Verse, Photograph the Sky, Solve Math Problems, Say an Affirmation, Read a Prayer, Touch Grass, Wake Pose and Catch the Sunrise in AR. The same 12 missions are available on iPhone and Android. Compare them in the wake-up mission catalog.

Can I use VeriWake as a math or exercise alarm?

Yes. Choose the math mission for three problems, or select push-ups, squats or pose matching for a movement-based challenge. Pick a safe, realistic target and leave enough clear space for exercise missions.

Are camera mission photos uploaded?

No. Camera frames and temporary mission media are processed locally and are not part of VeriWake cloud synchronization. Screen Time selections and system permission states also remain on the device.

Does speech verification always happen on my device?

Speech processing depends on your device and language. On iPhone, VeriWake requests on-device recognition when supported; otherwise it may use Apple's speech service. Choose a non-speech mission if you prefer not to grant microphone or speech-recognition access.

Does VeriWake work without an account?

Yes. You can complete setup and use the app without signing in, provided VeriWake Pro access is active. The app saves data locally. Cloud synchronization and recovery require a successful sign-in to your VeriWake account; system alarm registrations, permissions and temporary mission data remain specific to each device.

What is restored on a new phone?

Data that has successfully synchronized with your VeriWake account can be restored after sign-in. This includes saved alarms, settings, routine, permitted onboarding answers and wake-up history. On a new phone, active VeriWake Pro access and the required permissions are needed to set up alarms. System alarm registrations, temporary media and device-specific app restrictions do not transfer.

How do wake-up streaks work?

A scheduled day counts toward your streak when at least one mission is verified within its completion window. Manual logs appear in history but do not advance the streak. A missed scheduled day breaks the streak; days without scheduled alarms do not.

How do bedtime app limits work?

On iPhone, Screen Time access lets VeriWake block selected apps, app categories or websites on a repeating schedule. You choose the start and end times, and the restrictions end with that time window. Your selections stay on the device.

What does VeriWake Pro include?

Active VeriWake Pro access is required to use the main app and schedule alarms. Subscription options, prices and any eligible introductory offer appear in the app before purchase. Manage your subscription through the store account used for the purchase.

What happens when a subscription expires?

When VeriWake confirms that Pro access is inactive, it shows the subscription screen and pauses ordinary alarms. Your saved alarm settings and enabled status are retained. An already active required mission is not interrupted. After access is verified again, VeriWake attempts to restore previously enabled alarms.

My alarm did not behave as expected. What should I check?

Check that your device and operating system are supported, the alarm is enabled, alarm permissions are allowed, the device has power, the volume is appropriate and VeriWake Pro is active. Check any permissions required by the selected mission. Reopen VeriWake and test the alarm on the phone you use.

How do I delete my VeriWake account?

Open Settings in VeriWake, find Account and choose Delete Account. If you cannot open Settings or complete deletion, follow the VeriWake account deletion instructions. Account deletion is permanent and does not cancel a store subscription.
