Sleep cycle alarm clock app

Post by eeckel » Tue Sep 03, 2013 6:11 pm

Ever since zeo went kaput I've been missing the alarm clock linked to my sleep cycle. Last night I tried an app called sleep cycle alarm lock. While the data looked primitive it did wake me up in a way that felt similar to zeo. It felt good. I'll try it again tonight. Any opinions? Or suggestions for an alternative? Thanks

I have neighbors that make their own fireworks. They wake me up about 2:30am most Saturday nights as their parties close out. I am usually in some phase of a sleep cycle when this starts. Glad I am not a PTSD sufferer. I'm sure I could take up a collection in the neighborhood to get the family moved out by you if you would like to have them. May be an alternative to your alarm clock...

Fireworks! Cute!
I had never used my Zeo for the alarm until recently. Well, I was already awake.
A fair amount of the Zeo data is available onscreen--no computer work.
As long as the headband works, I see no reason to boot my existing unit to the curb.
In the meanwhile, I'm sitting tight to see if and when Melon EEG makes it, and for how much.
I'm too tight a wad to spring for the Kickstarter, so, playing it safe.

Nice offer! But the Duquesne University party animals that live next door have that time slot covered.
