Press
Alora Wake is a smart alarm for iPhone, built around a simple promise: it wakes you gently, and it always wakes you. Your own Apple Music plays you out of sleep, a simulated sunrise softens the transition, and a morning briefing — weather, calendar, commute — is ready the moment you are. It runs on your device, and your data stays there.
Founder

Mark Kawecki
Mark Kawecki is Alora Wake’s founder and only developer. A pilot and veteran with more than thirty years in aviation, he spent his career in a world where waking up on time isn’t optional — and spent seventeen months building an alarm that treats it that way. Alora Wake shipped in June 2026 as a solo project: no team, no investors, just a working alarm and a calmer morning.
