Shock Clock MAX

Amazing purchase! Spent my whole life having trouble waking up to alarms, this is the only thing that has ever worked for me. I’m excited to see how my life looks a year from now with these extra hours in the morning

The Pavlok has been nice to use but hasn't lived up to my expectations. When you are setting the shock strength, there is a test button which one would presume would shock at the level you just set, but instead it just vibrates the watch. In order to feel the new setting you have to exit out to the main page and press the shock button. The alarm is also very unreliable, I have it set to go off every morning and it hasn't on most days. I have even woken up before and waited for the alarm but nothing appears except a prompt asking if I want to save sleep data. Finally, the shocks are very inconsistent (probably has more to do with variable conductivity of skin) and this has resulted in both shocks not being felt as well as shocks that were overpowered. The battery life is great though even if it doesn't server the purpose I purchased it for.

The watch does what it says it will do, shockwise. But I've had ongoing issues with the app, which at first didn't sync and now won't even connect to the watch. Support has been responsive but something as basic as Bluetooth syncing shouldn't even be an issue in 2026. I don't necessarily regret the purchase but I can't say I'm blown away by the value, either.
