A blessing for ADHD kids, their parents and teachers!
This device helped my son so so much!! My son has severe ADHD and even with his medicine, he still has a lot of trouble keeping one task and not intrupting his teacher or his classmates. One week with the revibe and he only had one day where is was distracted which was his first day with it, that was him just getting used to it. I can not believe how much this has helped him to be able to help keep himself on task and now his teacher is able to instruct more and not have to be right next to him to make sure he is doing what he needs. Thank you revibe for helping my son be able to self regulate!!

Battery Issues - Already returned one & High Annual Fee (Opinion)
A friend led us to this device - however it is highly frustrating for us that it appears that the battery shows full and then we experience that the battery only lasts "at best" 5 hours in adaptive mode. It was even more frustrating for the child when they try to focus and the device stops working. We will be looking at a different solution with direction of a qualified professional versus a friend. Also, If you want to still get this it is my opinion that you DO NOT purchase at anytime other than during Black Friday (USA Holidays).. Why? Because they seriously cut the pricing of the expensive annual fee. I am glad we went with the monthly fee so we could cancel without drawn into a year of no use fee. It is highly possible that the vendor comes back and responds to this posting - however we feel they should have responded to the replacement within 30 days and engage us versus a product feedback posting.

Results are 5 star, but syncing and app are a problem
It was hard to rate this. The results from the device are 5 star, though the setup and interface a rough and feel like a beta.We bought this for our 9 year old son. He is super smart, but challenges with focus and staying on task at school. After trying a number of techniques we found ReVibe. It has honestly contributed hugely to him being more focused at school and staying on task. He doesn’t believe this, but the funny thing, he keeps choosing to wear it every day… We have seen objective differences on the days when he has worn the device in the days when he is not.The star score was brought down by the complicated set up, less than great app design and tenuous at best syncing. The set up instructions are pretty good but honestly it was rather difficult to do and I would consider myself an expert in this realm. The Device reports many data points, but not many of them mean that much to us when reviewing. We have had numerous issues with syncing the device with my iPhone X. It seems that if you do not keep the phone awake during the sinking process that it will not work. This is a little frustrating as it sometimes takes 5 to 10 minutes to sync the data. I have resolved to turn it off the sleep screen function to avoid this. I understand it is difficult and expensive to build iOS apps, but this one really needs an update.

Love the Revibe
We just purchased our second Revibe, as this product has been great for our son, who has ADHD (inattentive type). We most love that I can set regular reminders for him that get delivered to him while he is at school like "Put lunchbox in backpack" (because he lost 5 lunchboxes this year before the reminder) and "Take afternoon meds" and in the evening to "Brush teeth" (better the watch say it than hear myself say it one more time). He also loves that it counts his steps, so he can compete with the rest of the family in their step counts. I like that I can observe how well he is focusing at different times of the day, which can help us strategize with the teacher.A few times I've contacted customer service with questions and they've been really responsive and helpful too, which I really appreciate.

Not User Friendly or Technically Modern
I loved the idea of this watch, even though it's incredibly expensive, I bought it for hope it would work as it said it did. Well I set it all up and tried it out. The tap/acknowledge feature is extremely difficult to use. I finally "got it" about 75% of the time, but still difficult. I don't like that the vibration happens three times, once would seem sufficient, then tap/acknowledge. The text on the screen is very outdated, looks like it's from the 90's. Technology has come such a long way, I just feel this watch has so much promise but executed horribly! I wanted this to work, but it needs a new modern updated design and functionality. I am returning this watch, it will not work for us.

Decent watch for kids with Executive function issues
The Revibe watch has been great for my son. The text message feature is great to help remind him to complete tasks. This way it doesn't always come from me. I wish the time and the steps showed on the screen at all times because sometimes when he taps it, the numbers do not display on the screen. The only real problem I have with the device is that it does not stay charged for during the school day. I can charge it all night, but it will only stay charged for about a five/six hour period. I need it to last past the school day and into his nightly chores.

JUST enough!
I waited to review until after it had been used for at least 30 days. It is unobtrusive and has been helpful in reminding a child on the spectrum to refocus, especially in what he may consider long (boring) classes. The vibrations and even the device is very discrete so he doesn't feel exposed and the vibrations noticeable to anyone except him. I wish it maintained a full charger longer, but recharging is a small price to pay for the benefits that are already noticeable

Overpriced, terrible outdated design
There is no excuse for the Revibe being so poorly designed when there are so many fitness tracker watches like Fitbits that are light years ahead in comfort, bulk, functionality, battery life 10 times longer, and yet cheaper. I am disgusted at how poorly designed and outdated technologically this device is. It’s way too bulky for my 7 yo daughter’s wrist, the battery only lasts a day and if you don’t charge it in time, the date and time is completely lost and needs to be resynced. The charge port is concealed under the watch housing which has to be pulled off completely to plug in for charging. The app takes a bit of time to figure out but crudely gets the job done. In practice, my child barely wears the watch because either the battery is flat, it’s been charged but needs resyncing on a grownup’s phone or it needs to be reassembled after charging. Terrible product under the excuse of medical application.
