What some of our users are saying:
"I was baffled at how well it worked. Almost every day I used it, I felt refreshed when the alarm started." - Christina Karlsson
"Waking up at the right time is an amazing thing. I couldn't believe the difference it made!" - Michael Palka
"It felt like I was already awake and the iPhone just let me know it." - Anders Hejdenberg
-------------------------------------------------------
Sleep Cycle monitors your movement during sleep using the extremely sensitive accelerometer in your iPhone. Sleep Cycle then finds the optimal time to wake you up during a 30 minute window that ends at your set alarm time.
Look at the screenshots for recommended iPhone placement.
-------------------------------------------------------
Sleep Cycle was developed using proven sleep science and five months of exhaustive testing.
As you sleep you go through different phases that range from deep sleep to light sleep. The phase you are in when your alarm clock goes off is a critical factor regarding how tired you will feel when you wake up.
Since you move differently in bed during the different phases, Sleep Cycle uses the accelerometer in your iPhone to monitor your movement to determine which sleep phase you are in.
Sleep Cycle then wakes you in your lightest sleep phase.
Remember! Do NOT lock your phone when going to bed. Sleep Cycle automatically shuts down your screen and puts the phone into a power saving mode. If you lock your phone Sleep Cycle will not sense your movement and will then only be able to wake you at the end of the alarm time.

This has replaced my old buzz type alarm clock. I like the fact that it begins to wake you up before the set time for a built in snooze if you need it. All you have to do is leave it alone and go back to sleep in about 9-10 minutes the alarm will sound again. So there is no need for a snooze button like one user described. The only con I have is that the AM/PM is too sensitive on the wheel and moves even if you are trying to set the hour. How about a simple flat button or check box interface to set the AM or PM and remove it from the wheel. Otherwise it's a great app and does what it says it will do. I would also like to see some data on my sleep patterns so that I could know just how much sleep I need to feel refreshed. If you add the data, please let us be able to accumulate data over long periods of time and export it to viable formats. Don't forget back-up options.

This actually works. I am no longer waking up tired. I highly recommend this app to all the heavy sleepers out there.
Really works!

I read a review of a watch gadget in David Pogue's column that also measures sleep cycles and wakes you up at the optimum time, but it cost over $200. So I didn't have high expectations for a $1 app. But I've been using it for almost a week, and I really do wake up with more energy! Best of all when I use this, I am really awake and don't go back to sleep, so no fear of oversleeping. Works great for short naps as well!
This is really nice!

The soothing tones which are much better then the iphone alarm tones on this alarm are already worth the .99 cent price, but the effectiveness of the app waking you at an optimal time is very impressive, and I really look forward to the update which will include charts showing your sleep cycle throughout the night.
Sleep cycle is great

I like this app and the calibrate option, but I wish it had the capability to see a graph of your nights rest and how many hours you were asleep.
Almost Perfect!!!! :)

The app does work great. It woke me up twenty min early and even though I didn't get out of bed I could check my emails from the iPhone and read the news and chill before I had to start moving.
The smooth alarm feature is the nicest way to wake up. I think they shoul add more sound and a graph depicting your sleep behavior. This would ensure a five star rating and help prove it's method for waking me up when it did.
Overall great product... Just needs a few more features to be the best alarm system in the Apple App store.
A must have app!

I wont go to sleep without this app anymore! I expected a total gimmick, instead I got a night sleep night after night.
This is awesome!!!
I thought I'd download it and see what it's about. I set my alarm for 7:35am and it woke me at 7:05am. It had a beautiful sound unlike most alarm clocks and I woke up alert and rested!!! I am usually groggy every morning!!! I don't know how it did it, but I'm satisfied with this app. 4 stars!!
Amazing Application!

Great investment for people who hate waking up in the morning! I can't believe it actually works and I literally do wake up feeling alive. It has been waking me up right away from the day I purchased it.
Nice!
Worked perfectly! It woke me up in a light sleep 20 minutes before my alarm ... I felt great. I was just too stubborn to get up! I should have though! 5 stars ... But wish it had a more "annoying" alarm ... The soothing one may make someone go back to sleep ... I'll recomend to anyone ...
Nice gentle alarm
I really like the gradual alarm and the soothing sounds provided. I think I must not move much as the alarm has tended to go off at the time I set it for, never any earlier. This is certainly a more affordable solution than many of the others on the app store.
Don't bother
It seems like a good idea but I bought it and I agree with an earlier poster that said its not worth it to have to keep your screen on all night. Most people say it works so if it worked in sleep mode I would probably use it. But it doesn't.
no iTouch support

originally no iTouch support. then they turn on iTouch compatibility. then they update to solve problems. now no itouch support again. seems like they should have found a solution to the problems that still included iTouch support.
Never turns off

It keeps your screen lit all night. No thanks! Ruining my screen isn't worth $0.99
Amazing App

This might just be me favourite app now. It really works in that in wakes me up more refreshed in the morning than before. Seems like magic, almost. It's very easy to use too.... just follow the instructions and it's not a problem. My only complaints would be to Apple to allow this app to run while the phone is locked so I don't need to keep it plugged in overnight and drain battery. I understand this is not an issue with the developer, but caused by restrictions by Apple. Hopefully these can be removed in the future. Still though, this is an amazing app... you wont regret using it.
Excellent program!
I used this for a few days now and it does seem to wake me up at differant times but I have a lot more energy, has no heating issues under my bed covers.
Sleep Cycle Alam Clock - It Works for Me
I've always said if I wake up at the wrong time I feel groggy all day. This is the first time there appears to be a way to wake up at the right time. I've used version 1.1 for several nights now and it is working for me. Also, it has not caused any noticable drain on my battery as apparently was the case with 1.0
Ok
The sounds are kind of low but also I have my fans running so that might be the cause.
Overall this App is awesome detects ur movmnt since u tend to move more toward when you wake up.
If you want a good night sleep buy this! However read the directions on the app to get best usage.
Smart and friendly alarm clock!

Regular alarm clock usually doesn't care what you are in deep sleep or not. This smart app is different. If you remember a really bad feeling when you had to wake up by unmerciful alarm clock, this one will be good solution. It knows right time when you wake up. Don't throw your old alarm clock to the wall any more!

I gave version 1.1 a try and the phone was not warm at all in the morning and fully charged. Works perfectly now! For this price it's a bargain.
Simple but it really works for me!

I've been using it a week and was pretty sceptical about it. Well I can say it works! I have woken up more refreshed, and the amazing thing is that it seems to have trained my mind to wake up at the proper part of my cycle because I have started waking up on my own right before the alarm goes off! No battery or heat problems for me, just leave it plugged in face down and it turns off the LCD, and it's fully charged in the morning like it should be. Now I do wonder how much data it collects through the night to calculate your sleep cycle- it would be nice in an update to include a graph view of your cycles because a. it'd be interesting to see and b. it would provide proof that it's actually doing something other than waking you up when it senses some motion. Other requests, a "snooze" button (I know it's against the whole point to snooze, it's still comforting to have one) and the option to wake up to a song on your iPhone. I love this little app though, it's well worth its price even if you don't buy into the concept completely!
Hasn't worked 4 me yet

I love the idea, but for the past 3 nites I have plugged the phone in, put it on airplane mode, kept the screen to never go off, did the test ro make sure it made a sound when I moved, put the phone under my fitted sheet under my pillow face down and I've been late for class 3 mornings because the alarm never went off. I'd look at my phone and it was shut off all 3 times. Black screen, one time the battery was actually dead, while it was charging.
I should of stuck with Absalt Easy Wake Alarm- nothing ever goes wrong with that
does not work as advertised, kills battery, overheats

i'm really hopeful that the 1.1 update will fix the issues that i and others have experienced - i'm looking forward to giving this app another shot. in the meantime, i wish that LexWare would update their description to alert potential buyers that the app doesn't work as advertised, and has potentially dangerous risks of overheating next to your head. the description casually mentions that the 1.1 update fixes serious problems - and that's a good start - but with the risks, it's worth mentioning at the top of the description.
