A Ukrainian developer created the Daybezel app — a radial alarm clock for the iPhone that will make daily planning more tactile and visual.
The idea of creating a new interface arose due to the inconvenience of the standard solution in iOS, which the developer personally encountered.
“I’ve been annoyed by the standard list of alarms in iOS for a long time. I have trouble waking up, so I often set 5–8 of them. And since my work schedule is flexible, over time I accumulated a huge list: separate alarms for 9, 10, 11, 12 o’clock, and several for each time,” shares a Reddit user under the nickname Hopeful_Committee365 (the App Store indicates that the author of the development is Oleksandr Vovchuk).
Instead of the usual scrolling through a long list of times, Daybezel offers a visual 24-hour interactive watch face.
"I always wanted to see all my alarms in front of my eyes, instead of scrolling through an endless list. That's why I made a 24-hour watch face where you can create alarms with one touch, drag them to change the time, and see how much time is left until the next one," the developer explains.
According to the developer, the product was built natively using Swift, SwiftUI, and Apple AlarmKit. In addition, moderation in the mobile store was impressively fast.
"In the first 24 hours after launch, I already have 1.25 thousand downloads, which I'm very happy about. By the way, if anyone is interested in the topic of App Review, Daybezel passed the review in just one day. I see that many people are having problems with it now, so I guess I was lucky."
Daybezel is currently available for free download on the App Store .
Oleksandr Vovchuk assured that for all users who install the application before the introduction of monetization, it will remain free forever. The application requires iOS version 26.1 or later to work.
