I've used my iPhone as an alarm clock for as long as I can remember. Often, I open my phone to turn off the alarm and find myself still responding to texts, refreshing my emails, and reading the news 30 minutes later. Then, I scramble to get ready to catch the train to the office.
This isn’t a unique story: most of us are guilty of using our phones before getting out of bed. Though I’ve tried to quit the habit for years, I finally found relief in an unexpected source: a recommendation from Kylie Jenner. In a Poosh Gift guide, the businesswoman revealed that her morning routine involves the Loftie Alarm Clock. Jenner raved: 'I have been sleeping so much better since I started using this alarm clock.' The primary reason for this is that using an 'old-fashioned' alarm clock allows you to sleep with your phone outside of your bedroom. For me (and I assume for many others), my longest periods of interrupted phone time tend to be right after waking up and before going to sleep, so I knew that keeping my phone in a different room while I slept would be a game changer. I requested a sample, and Loftie sent me one of their classic clocks to try out.
