@techtiff: If you sleep through your alarm, give it backup. Open Shortcuts → Automation → choose your alarm going off as the trigger → add the action that turns on your lights → set it to run automatically. I use a Wi-Fi smart plug for my bedroom lights, so my alarm and lights now handle mornings together. Now when an alarm goes off, the lights come on automatically. So sleeping through it takes considerably more effort.
I’ve been doing this for years it’s so easy to wake up

I’m a shift worker. I have automated blinds and Phillips hue lighting. My I phone will read what shift I’m on tomorrow, set my alarms according to my start time (2 alarms 5 minutes apart). Then the lights are scheduled to sunrise mode over 30 minutes hitting max brightness as my alarms start to go off. My blinds will open incrementally over 5 minutes when the alarms go off. It has made waking up so much easier.
