Homedics latest launch, the WakeBand™ Silent Alarm is a game-changer for waking up in the morning without a loud alarm.
This wearable band wakes users gently through customisable wrist vibrations—no sound, no disturbance. Perfect for those who share sleeping spaces or who are deaf or hard of hearing, the WakeBand™ offers a more peaceful, personalised way to start the day.
With all-night comfort, a discreet low-profile design, and app-enabled controls, it’s a smarter alternative to traditional alarms and bulky smartwatches. The intuitive Homedics WakeBand app, available for both iOS and Android, enables full alarm customisation with nine vibration patterns, nine intensity levels, and an adjustable snooze feature—allowing users to tailor their wake-up routine to suit any schedule or preference.
Designed with overnight comfort in mind, the WakeBand™ features a featherlight, soft-touch strap that adjusts for a secure, barely-there fit. Its sleek, low-profile design minimises bulk, making it comfortable even for light or restless sleepers. A magnetic charging system ensures easy bedside recharging and reliable performance every morning.
After my teen granddaughter, Harriet, had an alarm malfunction and missed meeting up with friends, she was eager to try something different and the WakeBand™ was a good option. She had no problem setting up the app and everything worked well. The first time she wore the band, it was too tight and she had to loosen it in the night, but it still woke her at the designated time. She said she was very aware of wearing the band but as she has never even worn a conventional watch that's not surprising. Plus she hasn't tried a smart watch which I can confirm are uncomfortable. She found the battery life wasn't as long as promised.
She has continued to use the WakeBand™ and the most important consideration is that it works!
