The title pretty much says it all. I've been wanting a "Sunrise alarm" for some time, but have never been able to find a way to do it – at least not a free one. In addition to much experimentation with the built-in alarms, I've tried I think every free app in the store that claims to do this, and literally not a single one has worked (they all fail in various horrendously bad ways).
Is there a free way to set a simple sunrise alarm? Failing that, is there any low-cost (like under $5) app that will actually do this well, and works on iOS 12?
Best Answer
You can create a shortcut within the Shortcuts app for this.
The coordinates in the first command need to be replaced with those of the location you need the alarm for.
PS: The alert will show the UTC time, but the alarm itself will be created in the local timezone of the iPhone/iPad
