Been using my iPhone alarm for the past 10 years but looking into purchasing an actual alarm clock for consistency as the iPhone one has sometimes glitched and not gone off in the past.
What alarm clock does everyone use and what's your experience with it? Don't need it too loud and something that can customize times for days and easily reset would be nice.

I use my iPhone and my Garmin watch. The Garmin watch vibrates so it always wakes me up, but I set two alarms at the same time (phone + watch) just to get up.
I'm similar but its my iPhone and my Whoop band. Definitely need both to get up each morning.
Get a sun-thing one. We have one, it's from Phillips. Not sure what it's called, my wife bought it.
Thing is a game-changer. I rely heavily on light to get me up and ready, and I usually wake up around 5:05-10a for the gym. In the winter (and majority of the summer) it's damn near impossible without natural light peeping in. Sun alarm clock simulates the hue and consistency of natural light, plays some bird noises too. Wakes me up right around the time somehow without making any noise.
95% confident it's this one - just found the link. Game changer, man. Game changer.
buddy of mine is an engineer there and I think worked on the team that made them. I've been seriously considering it, although it looks huge and my nightstand is a bit too small.
EDIT: actually I think he worked on the one that looks like a fleshlight, no joke
the Hatch Restore is a much more aesthetic looking one. Unless your nightstand is mini it should fit

No need for anything special or fancy for that. Any dimmable smart-bulb and a home assistant (I use Alexa) can step up in automatic intervals over time. (either 1 or 5% steps) Alexa can also build sounds from your speaker into the routine, like birds chirping starting at 15% and death-metal music at max volume when it hits 95%. It can also be set to go off at various times each day or even skip weekends. The only thing I haven't been able to do is to get it to automatically skip holidays, so this upcoming weekend I need to tell it to skip Monday.
I just use my Google phone's alarm. But I've set such a more or less pretty regular schedule that I wake up out of habit like five-ten minutes beforehand and just roll over and get out of bed. Old alarm was my computer set to start playing 311 as an alarm (yeah, yeah I'm a nerd. Don't care). Got to the "too much tequila level" where I heard Amber so many times I can't stand that song anymore and just thinking about the song makes me uncomfortable with all the lyrics going through my mind now.
I have the hatch restore. It's programmed to turn on and broadcast light at increasing intervals until it reaches the time you want it to sound off. Also has a big speaker built in so I use it to play fan noises at night. You can customize the light brightness, colors and sounds with the app on your phone since it's wifi capable. I'd say it was worth the price.

Stock alarm app on my ipad. Though I almost never use it since I get up just before it goes off.
