Your alarm fires.
The window opens.
Two minutes. Then it's gone.

Somnia sets a wake-up alarm. The moment it fires, your capture window opens. Write within 2 minutes, or that dream is lost forever. No exceptions. No extensions.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR ALARM FIRES

Quick capture

NIGHT BEFORE

Set your alarm in Somnia.

Pick your wake-up time. Somnia schedules the window. Your phone does the rest.

THE MOMENT YOU WAKE

Notification fires. Clock starts.

Tap the notification. You land directly in the capture screen. The 2-minute countdown has already begun — it started the moment the alarm fired, not when you tapped.

TWO MINUTES LATER

Write, or lose it forever.

Once you type the first word, the timer disappears and you have all the time you need to finish. But if 2 minutes pass with nothing written — that day's window closes. No override. No second chance.

OVER TIME

Your subconscious builds a pattern.

Every captured dream is indexed, tagged, and analysed. After 30 entries, Somnia shows themes your waking mind missed.

How the window works

Alarm fires

At your chosen time, Somnia sends a notification. Your 2-minute window opens at that exact moment.

You write

Tap the notification. One screen, no navigation. Type the first word and the timer stops — you have as long as you need from there.

Window closes

Two minutes after the alarm, the window locks for the day. This isn't a bug. It's the point. Urgency is what makes you remember.

What Somnia offers

Alarm-Gated Capture

Set a wake-up alarm. Get a 2-minute window. Miss it and the day is gone. This is the only journal that takes your dreams as seriously as you do.

Pattern Sight

AI surfaces recurring symbols, figures, and emotional threads across months of entries.

Sovereign Data

No advertisements. No resale. No cloud lock-in. Export your full archive any time.

Full-Text Search

Retrieve any dream by symbol, character, or phrase. Every word is indexed.

Ritual Structure

Notebooks, tags, lucidity tracking, and mood scoring — organised the way your subconscious works.

Absolute Privacy

Row-level security and encrypted transport from the first keystroke. Your interior world is yours.

Most people have never successfully written down a dream. Not because they don't want to — because by the time they find an app and open it, it's gone. Somnia is built around that one biological fact.

How we protect your data

Timed capture is strict by design, because urgency improves recall in sleep science studies.

A journal that reflects your patterns over time, not just isolated entries.

Your dreams are private data. No ads, no tracking, and no data selling.

Tonight you will dream.

Set your alarm now. Tomorrow morning, the window opens. Everything after that depends on whether you're ready.
