Sleep is essential for maintaining physical and mental wellness, and too much (or too little) can quickly alter your mood. If you struggle to wake up with typical alarm clocks or smartphone alerts, sunrise options, like the Hatch Restore 3, could be the perfect solution.

Expert Allison Murray reviewed the Restore 3 and the previous Restore 2, and Murray says the Restore 3 offers some promising upgrades that have elevated the user experience.

“The Hatch app’s bedtime rituals are noticeably better than the previous version, and there are a lot more routines to choose from. You can choose from a meditation, a bedtime story, ASMR, an in-bed stretching sequence, or even a podcast to set the tone for bedtime. By using these routines, I was able to stop scrolling my phone for a good hour before drifting off to sleep,” Murray says in her review.

I recently got my own Hatch Restore 3, and while I’ve only used it a few nights over the Christmas holidays so far, I am already enjoying not being tethered to my phone’s alarm before bed and in the morning.
