Why won't Start work?

Hushwake only starts when sound is going to headphones or earbuds (wired, Bluetooth or USB). Connect them and the pill at the top turns to "private".

My AirPods are in, but Hushwake says "iPhone speaker"

AirPods follow whichever Apple device last played sound. When you open Hushwake it quietly asks for them (silently, you won't hear anything), and they normally switch over within a few seconds. If they don't, open Control Center and choose your AirPods as the audio output.

What happens if my earbuds disconnect during the night?

Sound stops immediately. If they are not back by wake-up time, Hushwake vibrates instead. It never switches to the speaker.

Do I need to keep the app open?

No — lock your phone as usual. Just don't swipe Hushwake away in the app switcher: iOS stops apps that are swiped away, and then no app can ring. If that happens, Hushwake tells you the next time you open it. You can also turn on the silent "Backup banner" in Settings.

How do I stop or snooze without unlocking?

Squeeze your earbud stem or press the headphone button to stop. Snooze and Stop also appear on the lock screen.

Can I keep listening to music while I fall asleep?

Yes, with "Keep my music playing" on in Settings. Your music pauses when the alarm rings so the earbud controls go to Hushwake.

How do I check it works?

Use "Test in my ears" on the main screen before you sleep — it plays the real alarm through your earbuds.
