Rise and Shine
We love apps that come with a bunch of crazy, smart features and options, but sometimes all you need are the simple essentials. Here are some alarm clock apps that will wake you up at a specified time … and that’s it. These ones neither know nor care how you slept before they came in, and they won’t even tell you because they can’t. They have one job, and they’ll do it.
Simplistic alarm with weather

Sleep and Track
You already know based on how (un)rested you feel throughout the day how well you sleep, but why not bring some science into it?

Maybe looking at a graph doesn’t sound like the most fun thing to do first thing in the morning, but you’d be surprised.
