Smartshaker 2 by iLuv, Portable Vibrating Travel Alarm Bed Shaker with Multiple Alarms for Heavy Sleepers, Deaf People, Couples and Seniors (White)

I absolutely LOVE this!!!! I've always had a hard time waking up on time with my cell phone alarm or alarm clocks. As a matter of fact, when my alarm went off before, it would wake my wife up and she would wake me up!But she was out of town last week and I needed something to wake myself up. Not only that, but I wanted to start getting up EARLIER and hitting the gym before work. I set the SmarkShaker alarm for 5am (2 hours earlier than I normally woke up) and I can proudly say that I got up at 5AM everyday this week(M-F) and got my workout in.When she comes back tomorrow night, I will have to see if it still wakes her up next to me or not, but I love this thing!

I ordered this looking for something as insurance for when I naturally snooze my alarm on my phone, just to be safe. I read the good reviews and the bad reviews. I figured I’d give it a fair shot and trial. It took maybe 2-3 hours to charge. Once I downloaded the app and had set a “test” alarm to see how it’ll be for the morning, (strongest vibration, loudest chime sound.) Which let me just say my first reaction was, oh ok I see how it works now. But the vibration was not drastic as other ones I’ve seen on the market as well as the sound. It is only a little bit more intense than the iPhone vibration. But as far as sound goes, iPhone alarm is louder. The packaging to me seemed nice and sleek but not heavy duty if it were to fall by accident a few times. This product in my opinion would be good for someone who is looking for a product for the same reason as myself but would still use the iPhone for the sound. Although for someone who is literally in hibernation while they sleep, get the bed shaker.

I rely on this device to wake me up twice overnight for medication. It is set to vibrate (normal intensity) so as not to wake my wife. Initially it worked fine then over the next couple of weeks it worked intermittently or not at all. This morning I happened to be awake when the alarm was to go off. All it did was a very faint fraction of a second buzz. The battery charge is 75%. As I write this I have been setting alarms ten minutes into the future and no alarms have gone off even though I watched the device synchronize with my lPhone 7 after setting the alarm.

We were looking for something to wake our 10yo up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. She’s such a deep sleeper! And we were tired of washing sheets. This did the trick. I like that you can adjust the sound from no sound to high and the buzzing is a better way to wake her. I only wish the on/off button was easier to turn off -it’s very small.And it’s small enough for easy travel

Great product. But it only works when your phone is on and your in range. So when i shut off my phone for a few hours of sleep it won't work

Let m first say the hardware (the actual shaker itself), is fine. Even on the lowest setting, it works well in waking me up. But the app used for this is absolutely dreadful. It syncs, but only the first ever time you set it up. If it lets you do that. I can't get it to stay at a higher vibration level. Or change the noise it makes. God forbid I want to delete an alarm, it's impossible. Honestly the app makes this thing absolutely useless. I have no idea if the app will ever get updated.

Ok, this is a great item. I bought it for my teenage daughter as I had decided to remove her phone from her room at night. This device is programmed from her phone, and then she takes it up to her room and her phone stays in the charger downstairs. It can be set to vibrate, alarm or both, and you can program the length of the snooze. She is a heavy sleeper but this bad boy wakes her up every time.

This is the first portable alarm system that works for me. Being hearing-impaired, I have had Walker LED Alarm clocks for years that are designed for deep sleepers and hearing-impaired people. I used to have to take my clock with on trips because nothing I could find that was compact and portable was strong enough for me. I place it in the pillow casing to keep iot near my head as I sleep .The vibration is VERY impressively obnoxious--in spite of the size.The app is easy to use, too.
