I find this app’s solution to the problem to be both innovative and unique. It uses movement to determine if you are mid cycle or at the end of a cycle and wakes you up close to your estimated wake up time but makes sure you’re not mid cycle. There is definitely nothing bad about it.

People that cannot sleep pay a lot of money to solve those issues. It would be much cheaper to buy a spare iPod touch and this app just for this purpose.

The app is not for everyone. Many people sleep fine and wake feeling rested. Obviously those people don’t need help. But for insomniacs or those that just want to wake feeling more rested, this app is a good alternative to some of the more expensive solutions out there. Even if you got a separate iPod touch for it leaving your iPhone charging all night, then you would have a $250 solution compared to the other solutions in the thousands of dollar ranges.

Anyways, iPhones aren’t so fragile that they’ll break under a person on a cushioned bed. It would require you to be thrashing all night long smashing it against a wooden head board, for example.

Anyways, what makes an app good is not whether or not every one can use it. Instead, it is if the app solves a particular problem or not. There are good graphing calculators in appstore, but not everyone needs a graphing calculator. That doesn’t make them bad apps. This particular app takes a very unique approach to a very specific problem. If you have problems with sleep, I suggest you give it a try. If not, pass it up. Don’t bag on the developers though because you dont find the app useful. That’s silly.

This is not a bad app!
It’s simply great!

I use it every night and it really improved my mood in the morning.

And don’t worry about breaking your phone. Its atached to your wrist and it’s safe there as long as you don’t hit the wall at night with your wrist.
But the phone would never break becuase of your normal movements at night…
