Story ideas

Five ways in.

Angles readers connect with, each backed by the product and the people who use it.

The origin

The sunrise alarm left in Australia.

Nick flew home from an iOS course in Australia and left his sunrise alarm on the other side of the world. The apps he tried instead felt harsh, so he built a gentler one.

The idea

An alarm that arrives.

The sound starts quietly before your alarm time and gets louder slowly. Sleep through it, and a louder sound and then your iPhone’s own alarm take over.

The people

What people stopped waking up to.

App Store reviewers describe the alarm they left behind, in their own words.

The maker

One founder, every email.

Wonderwake is built by one person, who reads every support email and review himself. More than 1,500 emails so far, and many updates began as one person’s morning.

The bigger picture

More than an alarm.

Sleep Gate tells you when to go to bed. Nap, Meditation and Focus help you rest and get things done. WonderWatch, a free Apple Watch app, wakes you with silent taps.
