Review

i read the entire manual, tried all the troubleshooting... even wrote to the company in their approved area to ask questions(who didn't respond)...and nothing. i would plug it in and an alert would pop up on my phone saying it wasn't made for iphones and ask about airplane mode (which was one of the boasting aspects of this device, that i wouldn't do that)... the alarm worked but that was about it. pretty f'n expensive alarm clock! :(
