PavlokPavlok Shock Clock 3 | Smart Alarm for Heavy Sleepers & Habit Breakers | Vibration, Beep & Safe Zap Wake Up | App-Controlled | Waterproof & Sweatproof | Silent Alarm for Couples | 1-Year Warranty

This product works amazing for me.I have tried many things in the past (alarms every 5 minutes, runaway alarms, sunrise /SAD alarms, puzzle alarms, loud radio, traditional bells, etc..) and nothing has every consistently worked for me. I can sleep through all of that.This worked for me because auditory and visual stimulation don't wake me up, but physical movement does. I found out about the type that shakes the bed, but I share a bed and didn't want to disturb my partner with the bed shaking.The band wasn't comfortable at all, so I got a replacement band and it works great. It's definitely heavy on my wrist, so that's something I just try to deal with (it's worth knowing that I'll wake up on time).There is a feature that checks using your movement to see when you are in a light sleep starting about 30 minutes before your alarm is set for. This feature has been super helpful because when it wakes me up, I'm not too groggy to stay awake usually.I also like that you can set the alarm to start with buzzing, then a beeping, then go to the shock feature. I typically wake up enough to start turning off the alarm before it gets to the shock feature, and usually before the beeping starts. My partner is never woken up by the buzzing, but the beeping does sometimes wake them up, depending on how loud I set it.I like that you can adjust and test beforehand how much of a shock it gives so it isn't too much, just enough to annoy you awake (or more if you need that).The shock feels a bit like a tens unit (for muscle pain relief), and I didn't feel anything until it got to 50% shock.The alarms are easy to make and have lots of helpful features [shock when pressing snooze, getting more annoying when ignored, doing jumping jacks, you can print off a qr code and put it somewhere in your house to scan, do various math puzzles, etc.].The app is kind of slow sometimes. For instance - when I go to turn off an alarm, it takes a second to load the screen, but the alarm continues on my wrist. It will also take a few seconds at least to allow you to do anything else on the app right after dismissing an alarm (possibly to keep you awake).Overall, the best alarm I've ever had. I am no longer afraid to try to sleep on nights that I have to get up early or by a very specific time, because I know my alarms will actually wake me up.
