CalChime turns your calendar events into real iPhone alarms. A calendar notification is easy to miss. An alarm is not. It sounds even when your iPhone is on Silent or in a Focus. No CalChime password or server. Sign in with Google or use your iPhone calendars. CalChime reads the calendars you choose, from Google Calendar or from the calendars already on your iPhone, and sets the alarms on your iPhone, up to seven days ahead. Alarms already set ring even when the app is closed. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose where your events come from: sign in with Google, or tap "Use the calendars on this iPhone" and allow Full Access when iOS asks. Either way, CalChime only reads your calendar. 2. Choose the calendar you want alarms for. 3. Choose how early the alarm should go off: when the event starts, or 5, 10, 15 or 30 minutes before. 4. Turn on alarms. OPEN IT ONCE A WEEK CalChime does its work when you open it. Each time you do, it checks your calendar and sets the alarms due in the next seven days. - Open CalChime at least once a week so alarms keep coming. - Open it after you add, move or cancel an event. Until you do, the alarm for a moved or cancelled event stays as it was. With Google Calendar, the app re-checks at most once a minute while open. With iPhone calendars, it sees a change only after iOS has synced it. - Alarms that are already set do not need the app to be open. WHAT GETS AN ALARM - Events that have a start time, in the calendars you choose - Not all-day events - Not events you have declined - If two events start at the same moment, you get one alarm that names both WHEN IT RINGS Your iPhone rings it, with the event's name and a Stop button. Snooze it, or press a volume or side button to stop it. Choose from several alarm tones. TRY IT FIRST Start a two-minute test alarm from Settings to try a CalChime alarm before you depend on one. YOUR CALENDAR STAYS YOURS - CalChime only reads your calendar. It does not add, edit or delete anything. - Google Calendar: CalChime asks Google for read-only access. - iPhone calendars: iOS has no read-only calendar permission, so it asks for Full Access. CalChime still only reads. - Your event details are kept on your iPhone. The app talks only to Google (if you use Google Calendar), Apple (alarms and purchases) and RevenueCat (purchase verification). - No ads. No tracking. - Remove CalChime's alarms, sign out of Google or stop using iPhone calendars at any time, from Settings. CALCHIME PRO CalChime is free to use for one calendar, with alarms up to 30 minutes before each event. CalChime Pro is optional. It adds: - Alarms for up to 32 calendars - The choice of 1 hour or 2 hours before Pro is offered as a yearly subscription, which starts with a one-week free trial, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. The yearly subscription renews automatically until you cancel it in your Apple Account settings. The price is shown in the app before you buy. GOOD TO KNOW - One calendar source at a time, never both. If you switch, CalChime keeps the alarms it has already set until you choose calendars from the new source, and tells you how many it will replace before you save. - iPhone calendars are the ones you see in Apple's Calendar app. Which ones appear depends on the accounts added in iPhone Settings and on each account's own sync settings. Calendars that live only in the Outlook app aren't included unless the account is also added in iPhone Settings. - Microsoft Exchange and Outlook.com accounts have not been tested with CalChime yet. - Requires iOS 26.1 or later. - Please do not rely on any single app for something critical.
