I left my phone at work one time and installed Wakefy on my Mac. I disabled the password so it would wake it up from sleep and set up a test alarm that night. It didn't work, the music would only play if my computer was running. I uninstalled the app but the problem was that one test alarm I set up kept playing and turned up the volume.
The developer replied to my comment here and sent instructions to do a full uninstall. He was very responsive after and the solution was pretty straightforward.
I was gonna post the full solution here but it involves downloading a file from a link that he has. If you've trouble email him. He's pretty responsive though it's only him behind the app so email again if he doesn't reply immediately. Thanks for your help Javi.
@sldn3 hi Gizeh, I'm so sorry – I've just seen your email. I've just replied with a full fix to the problem. Please check your email and let me know if you have any trouble.
Hm, not sure if it's the difference in time zone, but it went off at the completely wrong time for me. Also it would be cool if I could pick my own playlists to be played.
Nice concept, but currently completely unusable for my. Sadly...

👋 Hi Product Hunters!
Are you a morning snoozer?
Personal story here: I have a sleep disorder called DSPS that makes me a really heavy sleeper – it tricks my brain into thinking it’s still nighttime when there’s already light.
It’s early in the morning right now here in Spain and it usually would have been really difficult for me to get up and get anything done, had I not had Wakefy.
I needed a way to force myself to actually get out of bed and stand up every morning. You know, having my phone within arm's reach wasn’t helping me getting up on time – I just learned to hit the snooze button without even opening an eye.
And since my Macbook usually sits in a desk away from my bed, I thought of the idea of using it as my alarm clock, which would force me to walk to it to turn off the alarm. And, preferably, I wanted to wake up in a good mood 💫
That’s why I created Wakefy, a simple macOS app that turns my Mac into a Spotify alarm clock. I made it free, I just wanna help people solve their waking up problems, or just have better mornings.
It soon became obvious Wakefy was really useful in a whole different range of situations:
- When you fall asleep watching Netflix/TV and you forget to set up alarms on your phone
- In situations where you ran out of battery on your phone or just left it at home altogether (travelling, staying over at some friend’s…)
- Or if you just want to wake up to your favorite Spotify tunes 🎶
Some friends tested it and thought this was something that could help others… so here we are 🚀
This is my first launch ever! 🎉 Really excited!
Please let me know your feedback! Happy to answer any questions :)
