FAQ

1. What is a "WakeList"?

   WakeList is similar to a playlist in a music player. You friends add videos to your WakeList and you view them at the time of your alarm.

2. How does Wake a Friend pick videos from my WakeList?

   Wake a Friend picks the videos in the same order as they were sent to you. When your alarm rings, Wake a Friend picks the first video in line, or picks a video handpicked by the Wake a Friend team if your WakeList is empty.

3. What happens when I "wake a friend"?

   You will be asked to pick a friend and suggest a video for them. The video will be placed in your friend's WakeList. The next time their alarm expires Wake a Friend will play the first video in their WakeList.

4. What happens when my internet connection drops?

   Don't worry, Wake a Friend will play a backup alarm to make sure that you wake up! You can change the backup in the Settings.

7. Can I invite friends that do not use Facebook?

   Wake a Friend requires a Facebook account for both sending and receiving videos.
