Sure, you could opt to be woken with simple buzzing, but Smarter Alarm aims to make you smarter by informing you of the world around you as you wake.
I hate waking up. I guess it beats the alternative, but it’s still a messy process at the best of times. Smarter Alarm — available in a feature limited, ad-supported version, or a more fully featured paid version. It’ll read selected news feeds, present you with the weather and happily accept the snooze button when tapped. Not that I’d ever over-use a snooze button. Not me. [Smarter Alarm]

It does the same stuff but you can customise what it says exactly. Works for me.
