How to Set a Wake-Up Mission

To ensure you're not falling back to sleep, you can set up missions that have to be completed before you can turn off your alarm. For example, you can challenge yourself by rotating your phone, walking a few steps, or solving a puzzle. However, setting up a mission is optional.

Please note that some missions, as well as selecting more than one mission, require ⭐️ Awake Pro.

To select a mission:

1. Tap on Select Mission on your timeline screen.

2. Here, you can get a preview of each mission by tapping it and selecting Preview.

3. By tapping Add Mission, you will add your mission to your daily wake-up. Now, your mission appears in the Your Missions section.

There are several missions available to get you out of bed. Following, you will learn all about the different missions and how to set them up.

Rotating your phone to turn off your alarm is straightforward. When your alarm goes off you have to physically rotate your iPhone 3x to stop the alarm. You can adjust the amount of rotations in your mission settings.

If you want a challenge, you can set up a math quiz as your wake-up mission. When your alarm goes off, you have to solve all the math quizzes in order to stop the alarm. You can adjust the number of quizzes and level of difficulty in your mission settings.

If you're sleeping in the dark with curtains shut and all lights turned off, lighting up your room might be a fun challenge. Simply turn on your room light or open your curtains to let in some light and disable your alarm.

Please note that this feature requires camera access (that can always be revoked in your general settings app) and is a ⭐️ Awake Pro feature.

If you need an immediate activity to keep you awake, you can store your toothpaste or coffee brand barcode that has to be scanned to turn off your alarm. Simply tap Add Barcode to scan the respective item to add it to your mission. Once the alarm goes off, head over to your item and scan the barcode.
