Expensive bulb and cannot connect
I am deaf, my partner is not. I wanted Light Awake to use with the “Light Awake” smart bulb rather than using the strobe from my phone (which can get buried under my covers while sleeping). The flashing light would be so much better than the bed shaker that he hates.
The designated Light Awake smart bulb (complete with logo on the base) is found online for sale for $60. Some online stores say the bulb is on back order with estimated arrival date of September.
I decided to explore the app functions before making my smart bulb purchase. However, after downloading the Light Awake app, the option to connect the light bulb has been disconnected. Light Awake gives a message that the bulb connect option is not in service with no date of resolution.
It amazes me that the branded Light Awake smart bulbs are still being sold anywhere now, knowing the bulb connectivity does not work. The branding “Light Awake” on the bulb to match the app, leads consumers to believe the only bulb to work with the Light Awake app is the Light Awake branded smart bulb. Also, the online sale price is a major price gouge considering how cheap other smart bulbs can be obtained for online.
Selling the Light Awake bulb and not updating the app interface is dishonest. Quite frankly this baits consumers to use a device they cannot use for the intent of purchase. I sure do hope that someone is monitoring the email address provided on the app for those customers that need to resolve their purchase.
Light Awake is a great idea. The execution is an absolute failure.Review by Jen

This app is trash. You must leave your phone on with this app as the sleep screen in order for it to work. ZERO STARSmdargan
Nervous to leave iphone on all night:
I’m a little bit scared to leave the iphone on all night as it could potentially overheat, or cause issues to my phone in the long run. Just gonna stick to the iphone default alarms this timeemmi meow

Description of Light Awake
Light Awake uses pulsating light to gently rouse you from sleep. There are no sharp, piercing noises that startle you awake. Its flashing light is designed to stimulate your circadian system and comfortably move your mind from slumber to consciousness. This is the only wake-up system that is based on the physiology of our eyes and brain.
Currently compatible with iOS devices, this patented technology is especially helpful for:
∙ Shift workers
∙ People with hearing loss
∙ Sleep partners with different schedules
∙ Families with light sleepers or small children
∙ Teenagers and college students
∙ Roommates in close quarters
Light Awake is based on how the brain responds to light. Our body produces melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep, based on how much light it senses. It’s the same biological response that wakes up animals that are active during the day. Birds and dogs don’t need a piercing alarm and neither do humans!

***Note: Light Awake is a different kind of alarm clock***
To ensure proper alarm clock function, after you set your alarm, the screen will dim and go into sleep mode. It is important, if you use another app after you set your alarm, you disable/reset the alarm to ensure the sleep mode is initiated and the alarm goes off properly.
