    Thanks for the informative and honest review. Have you tried reaching out to the company with your ideas? If software updates can fix most of these issues, then there's really no excuse for how poorly thought out the design of this "clock" is. Like, I get it if they can't install time-keeping or brightness, but surely the other issues you mentioned could be easily resolved.

    That’s nuts you can’t actually set the time from the clock itself. Great review btw!

    This was very helpful! Thanks! I wish I could've heard second phase in the two-phase alarm sound. I'm looking for an alarm clock that doesn't make the typical harsh beep sound.

    Exactly the review I was looking for. I wonder if there's a good alternative to Loftie that you could recommend? Literally my main thing is wanting to change the alarm ON the device with something that's modern and looks good, so i'm hesitant on this product.

    Happy I could help! Honestly I wish there was a viable competitor but I have not found one. Right now I am using a homepod mini because it has night sounds built in.

    Why does it need wi-fi.. not being able to change my clock time sounds annoying. You have convinced me to invest in a vintage Braun alarm clock.

    Just got one, one thing to note, the clock does have an auto brightness feature. It is kinda dim during the day though.

    Oh, that must be in a newer version. Mine doesn’t have that.

    Just bought this clock then found this review. Big difference, bought it on ebay for $70. At that price I would say it's worth it. I think the subscription is what i have more of a problem with. I want what the subscription does, but seems like an unnecessary cash grab.

    At $70 this is an easy win.
