The first three are free, show no ads and are open source under GPL-3.0-only, Apache-2.0 or GPL-3.0-or-later. Their downloads are small, from 6.9 MB to 11.2 MB, and all were updated in 2026.

Alarmy is a different kind of product. Its audience is far larger, but it carries ads and in-app purchases. No license or file size is given for it, and the three open-source apps are not ranked against each other.

Fossify Clock Beta

Fossify Clock Beta, from developer Fossify, is version 1.6.0 and was updated on February 2, 2026. It weighs 8.7 MB, shows no ads and costs nothing under the GPL-3.0-only license. It is a light, open-source clock with the essential features, and it has the oldest update date of the three open-source apps.

Clock

Clock is version 2.34, updated on October 22, 2026, and is the smallest app here at 6.9 MB. It uses the Apache-2.0 license, shows no ads, and has alarm, clock, timer and stopwatch modes. It uses no internet permission. Alarms can be set for a date or time zone and dismissed by flip, shake or math problems.

Suntimes

Suntimes, version 0.17.6, was updated on October 29, 2026 and takes 11.2 MB, the largest of the three open-source apps. It pairs a clock and alarms with sunrise, sunset, twilight and moon phase times. The times are approximate, GPS is optional and no network is needed. It is free, ad-free and GPL-3.0-or-later.

Alarmy

Alarmy, from Delightroom, is version 26.42.0, updated on November 4, 2026. Its alarms rely on missions such as barcode or photo, math, typing, shake or squat tasks, so you have to get up and do something before the sound stops. It is free to download but contains ads and in-app purchases.

Best-of lists

Start with how you wake up. If you only want a plain alarm with a timer and stopwatch, Clock covers those modes at 6.9 MB with no ads. If you need a task to get you out of bed, Alarmy has the largest set of missions, though it adds ads and in-app purchases.

Suntimes suits people who also care about sunrise or moon times, but its own listing calls the times approximate. Whichever app you install, set a test alarm for a few minutes ahead and confirm it sounds as expected before relying on it overnight.
