Overview
A very reliable alarm app that wakes you with a rooster's call. Cannot be snoozed more than once, and its apology for waking you is always sincere.
Dawn Alarm is part of our Games & Wellness line, and it plays nicely with CoopFit and Egg Hunt AR, so you can adopt it one perch at a time. Apps for fun, focus, and finding your inner flock.
Teams usually start with the free Chick plan, move to Hen when the flock grows past a handful, and graduate to Rooster once the security team wants audit logs. The upgrade is one click, and nobody needs to molt.
Key features
- Progress syncs across devices, flocks, and entire poultry-owning households.
- Soundtrack composed by a chicken named Beaksley.
- Parental controls with a "bedtime" mode that dims the heat lamp.
- No ads, no loot boxes, and no in-app purchases except corn.
- Dawn Alarm was playtested by 300 chickens and one very serious turkey.

What the flock says
We replaced three tools with Dawn Alarm and nobody has asked where the old ones went.
Dawn Alarm paid for itself the first week. Then it paid for the second week, too. Strange.
The docs are shockingly good. We tested them by handing them to an intern.
