Peal turns important appointments into real alarms that get through Silent mode and Focus.
Short
Peal is a calendar alarm for iPhone and iPad. It reads the calendars the device already syncs and turns the appointments you must not miss into real alarms: full screen, through Silent mode and Focus. Peal keeps ringing until the alarm is stopped. No account, no server, nothing leaves the device.
Long
Calendar notifications are quiet by design. They arrive while the device is face down, during a Focus session, or as one of twenty. For most appointments that is right, for the client call it is not. For the important ones Peal sets a real system alarm, which is exempt from Silent mode and Focus and keeps ringing until the user stops it.
The user decides which appointments ring: per calendar, per keyword (which also matches notes, location and participants), per participant, per single appointment, plus quiet hours and lead time. Under Today, every appointment shows the rule that decided it, even when it stays silent.
Peal reads the calendars through a single system permission that covers iCloud, Google, Outlook and Exchange alike. There is no account, no server and no network request of its own. Peal Plus adds smart alarms, where Apple Intelligence on the device recognizes whether someone is waiting for the user, along with custom tones, a pause, lead times per calendar and per appointment, weekday rules and a second button on the alarm.
