Do you have a room without windows like a hotel room, your bathroom, basement or even bedroom? The app “Gentle Wakeup” can create a virtual window in your room. It will adjust the screen to the daylight outside. Just place your tablet or smartphone near the wall and run the app on it. When the daylight begins, the app shows a real sunrise with colours from red to yellow, just like in reality. This helps your body regulate sleep-wake rhythms, body temperature, hormone levels and digestion. In the evening, the app displays a real sunset, signalling to your body that it is time to wind down and prepare for sleep.
