Pavlok 3 - Silent Alarm & Wearable Mindfulness Coach for Good Habits - Elevate Mindfulness, Create Good Habits - Track Steps, Activity, and Sleep Patterns

Important detail: I’m missing right arm from elbow down. I received the item, obviously tried it out, and tested it on 40% and bam, could’ve swore I seen a spark shoot out of my elbow. I convinced my wife to put it on and hit it at 40% and she said it wasn’t bad, then 50% same thing, I’m convinced it isn’t making good contact so I adjust it on her, then boom I hit her with 100% and she jumped. After playing with it for awhile, figuring it out, I decided to put it on my right bicep so I could turn it off. At some point during the night I pulled it off, my wife proceeded to put it on my only wrist (problem 1) with the buttons on the top side (problem 2) because even if wanted to try to push buttons with my arm they were on the wrong side. At 3:00 am my wife went to fix baby a bottle, at 3:05 my alarm went off. 100% zap⚡️. I immediately jumped out of bed wondering what hit me, I quickly realized it was the ol Pavlok 3, at which point I realize it’s on my only wrist, I look around for my wife to pull it off, she’s nowhere to be found, and I’m stuck in this thing, then it starts beeping and before I know it ⚡️⚡️I get hit again. I’m trying not to scream and wake the baby up, I start hitting at the wrist band to break it loose with my half of an arm, and it starts beeping again ⚡️⚡️⚡️ boom I’m zapped again. At this point I’m flailing like an inflatable in front of a used car lot, after the second zap my hand locked up 🤌, the 3rd time It feels like a nightmare. I finally get the band loose, get it down to my knuckles and ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️ hit again at which point I get it off. Keep in mind this has all happened in less than a minute. My wife then walk in wanting to know what’s wrong with me and I had to tell her this story. Long story short, it works great as advertised, I wasn’t even groggy when I got out of bed, and starting tonight it’s going on my ankle.

The product is the worst idea I’ve ever come across. I expected it to help me, but instead, it caused numbness in the hand where I wore the watch and led to nerve damage. I will be filing a lawsuit soon, along with the attached medical report. I returned the product a month ago and still haven’t received a refund.

Definitely worth the money. 3am gym, because it shocks me awake. One week in and i wake up even before the alarm clock goes off. It aint stupid if it works!!!!! 10/10 for built quality, 10/10 for app usability!

I feel like this could be 5 stars but the manufacturer would need to fix a couple things. First the good: 1. It seems to work as intended - I bought this to assist me as an alarm since I’ve recently become a heavier than normal sleeper and I’d slept through several alarms on my phone. This device did successfully wake me up without even making it to the “Zap” sequence. 2. The App has a good overall user interface - The app feels good. It has been updated appropriately to connect to the watch easily and the navigation mechanics are natural and works well.y experience with this is with an iPhone operating on ios26. 3. It’s fairly comfortable - I forgot I was wearing it pretty quickly after charging it and putting it on. The Not so Good: 1. The device feels cheap. - This is probably my biggest complaint and something that could make me easily forget the rest of the issues listed below. The band feels like it’s made of plastic, the weight feels too light, the LED status lights feel outdated and the manual buttons on the side feel extremely clunky and do not provide a good tactile feedback. To spend almost $200 I am pretty disappointed. $200 isn’t a lot of money but pretty expensive given this devices competitors are considerably cheaper. I chose this device thinking I was purchasing the most premium device like this on the market but what was delivered made me feel like I purchased a $50 knock off. Quite unfortunate. 2. The vibration seems weak. The vibration function doesn’t vibrate very strongly even at 100% power. That’s all I can say, I feel like it should feel more substantial. 3. The wrist band easily slips out of its connection point. - When taking the device off the magnetic plate that keeps the band in place can easily slip out of the connection point mounted to the device, I feel like that is a design flaw and really just a small oversight. Overall I’ll likely keep this device but it will remain in the “regretful purchase” section of my mind. I feel like I should have tested the cheaper options first given how cheap this one feels. That being said, it works, so maybe I’m just a spoiled baby who is accustomed to nice feeling quality products. But still, at $200 it should feel like the price makes sense when you unboxing and during first time use. AirPod Pros do, a WHOOP One does, a Bose speaker does, this does not. Not when all of these are at the same price point.

Works well for its job, my only complaint would be that I order to zap your friends you have to pay a subscription
