How do we ensure you get up?
The alarm rings every minute until you verify. There is no snooze.
Make your bed and snap two photos from different angles. You won't be able to silence your alarm until you do this.
Each verified morning moves tomorrow's alarm five minutes earlier.
You set your current and goal wake times when you sign up. Miss a morning and the alarm holds where it is. The program stops shifting once you hit your goal.
We also help you get your morning started.
Pick 2 or 3 things to do after making your bed. Early Bird walks you through them once you're up.
Once you're up at 6:30 AM, you get back

Today shows the alarm, the streak, and the routine. Progress shows the climb from where you started to where you're going.
Questions about how the app works.
Why is it iPhone only?
Early Bird is built on Apple's AlarmKit framework, which is iOS only. The bed-photo verification depends on the kind of control over the alarm experience that AlarmKit provides. The app requires iOS 26.1 or later.
What if the alarm doesn't fire?
At 10pm every night, Early Bird runs a background check on alarm scheduling, permissions, and battery level. If something looks wrong, it sends a notification while there is still time to fix it.
Are the bed photos stored?
No. Each photo is checked on the device, first that it shows a bed, then that the two angles differ, and is then discarded. Photos are not saved to the photo library and never leave the phone.
What happens if I miss a morning?
If a morning is missed, the streak resets and the alarm stays where it is. The next day's alarm fires at the same wake time as the missed day. When you verify again, the program continues shifting earlier from that point.
What about weekends and vacation?
Weekend mode lets Saturday, Sunday, and major US holidays fire at a fixed wake time you choose separately. Those days are neutral and have no effect on the streak or the program. Vacation mode pauses the alarm and the program for 1 to 21 days at a time. The streak survives a vacation.
Tomorrow starts tonight.
Set your goal, make your bed, and let the sun do the rest.
