I want to "upgrade" my waking-up experience. Ideally, I'd love to have an alarm clock which I can plug into my computer and transfer custom alarm sounds to (which don't give me a heart attack), and which has two speakers so I can put one at both lateral ends of my bed.

My phone (iPhone 8) won't do it for two reasons: (1) I can't plug my speakers into this phone and make the alarm sound come from the speakers, (2) even if I got to accomplish this, every iPhone since the iPhone 7 has been infamous for not having a 3.5 mm headphone jack, which means that if I would use the lightning port to connect speakers to my phone, I couldn't charge it, unless I also buy an overexpensive wireless Qi charging thing.

Does someone know if this even exists?

  You could buy an external bluetooth speaker and use your iphone as the custom sound alarm clock. Or you could use bluetooth to connect your phone to your PC. Both scenarios will let you charge your phone.

  There is a smartphone app that (it claims) doesn't wake you up until you are in the right phase of sleep. The idea being that being woken at that point is less disturbing. https://www.sleepcycle.com
  
  Have no idea if it works or is completely bogus!
