Does anyone know a motion sensitive alarm clock app for iOS that does not mute SMS sounds?

I've been using "Sleep Cycle" app on my iPhone for a while now. I really like the concept -- it uses the built-in accelerometer to track when I'm in certain stages of sleep, which the app uses to wake me up just before the scheduled time when I'm not in a deep sleep. It's way better than an old-school alarm clock that triggers exactly when you set it.

But unfortunately that app has one major drawback. When I set it at night and lock the screen (obviously for security reasons) it also mutes any incoming text messages, which is a MAJOR NO-NO for me. I need to hear those!

So I was curious if anyone could recommend a motion sensitive alarm clock app for iOS that does not mute SMS sounds when it's activated?

I do not, but what's the point of having such an app if you're expecting to be awakened by numerous SMS messages throughout the night?
