WobL+ World's Smallest & Best Waterproof Vibrating 9 Alarms + Countdown Timer Wristwatch (Black) Sports/Medicine/Meeting/Potty Reminders

Nice little watch. Simple, easy to use and good for adults with small wrists. Comfortable to wear. Vibration could be a little stronger but you still feel it. The alarm sounds is a bit soft for people with hearing loss but fine for everyone else. It’s not too obtrusive. The locking feature is really nice. I recommend.

I wanted this to replace using the iPhone alarm app to repeatedly do a 20-minute timer throughout the day as a reminder to get up from a desk and stretch. The problem with this watch is you can’t just start a countdown timer whenever you want and repeat it - apparently you have to program what time of day it starts, what time of day it ends, snd how often you want it to repeat all day. I wanted an easy way to just start it counting down whenever, and I don’t see any way to do that. Can anyone recommend an option that does that?

My son has a health problem that requires him to need alarms throughout the day. I purchased this watch and it's the only one I could find that is small enough and has enough alarms. It lasted over a year then broke. When I ordered another one it came as the version with Velcro. I exchanged it, hoping it was a fluke, but the next one also had Velcro. The Velcro watch is too big for him. I'm going to try a blue one and hope it's not Velcro! I'm not sure if ordering a Velcro one would get me the right one. I hope Amazon fixes this!!!

This watch does what it’s supposed to do for my son who has adhd. It buzzes at regular intervals to keep him on track when doing homework. However the cons on this device are numerous and very annoying. I wish I could find a different device that did the same thing.Pros:1. interval countdown timer can be set to go off only at certain times such as between 9am -5pmCons:1. It’s not waterproof or even splash proof. My showered with it accidentally and I had to replace it. For something targeted at children, a lack of waterproofing is idiotic.2. The interval timer can’t be set to go off on only certain days of the week so every Saturday, I have to clear the timer then reset it on Monday morning. That’s annoying.3. While it has 8 alarm settings, once again, you can’t set days of the week so you can’t use it to only go off on a particular day of the week (Mon-Friday). This is so basic and only a few extra lines of code that I honestly can’t understand why it isn’t included.4. Keep the instructions or you’ll be looking them up on the internet every time you have to set the watch. There is a very short window of time once you go into set mode to start pressing buttons. And unlike 99.999% of digital watches, you literally have to hit the “save” button to save the hours in order to switch to the minutes. So it’s go into set mode. Hours start blinking. Hit “set” to scroll through hours. Hit “save” then set the minutes. Hit save. Etc etc. It’s ridiculous. Most watches, just hitting mode again moves to the next value and saves the previous one.I’m giving it 2 stars for the lack of waterproofing and the annoyance of having no easy way to disable the countdown timer without resetting it.

I got this for the multiple alarms because I take meds 4 x a day, and was going on a wilderness trip rafting and kayaking and it was possible my phone would die and there'd be no solar charging and I wouldn't get the alarms (nor would my garmin). So far it's been in the VA therapy pool that's salt & chlorine, the ocean kayaking and surfing, amd through white water on the river, and it hasn't skipped a beat. It's so much nicer just to have a watch you don't have to charge every week and doesn't rely on your phone. I take forever to decide on a purchase, but I couldn't be happier than with this WobL. I have had casios, timex, all kinds of brands before, but this is my favorite so far.

TLDR: We like the original better overall. It's more durable, more water resistant, and the band is more kid friendly. It's still better, even considering it's a pain to change the battery in the original.Here's the pros for both:* Both have very customizable settings for countdown and alarms between potty breaks.* You can set start and stop times that will allow the countdown to start automatically each day.* You can set a vibration or a sound or both for timers and alarms. You can vary this between countdown times and alarms (so, you can set countdown to both vibration and sound, but alarms only to vibration, for example, or any combination you like).*the vibration patterns vary each time (like 7 or 8 different patterns), so a child is less likely to become so accustomed to the reminder that they ignore it.Cons for both:* Battery runs down fairly quickly, if you use vibration for reminders all day long. We get 6-8 weeks use out of it. It makes sense, since vibration is battery hungry.* initial set up and set up after changing the batteries is fairly complex for both (slightly better on the plus)So here's a break down:Wobl+Pros:* Band is definitely more durable on Wobl+* Way easier to change the battery on Wobl+* Programming is slightly more straightforward on Wobl+.* One child was very happy that green was available on the plus.Cons:Not waterproof. Water resistance is better on the original.Band and clasp are much harder for a little person than the velcro on the original.Much less durable overall, stopped working in about half the time of the original.Wobl OriginalPros:* Velcro watch band is much easier for a little person* Seems more durable and more water resistantCons:* The Velcro band isn't as durable as the silicone band, but it's much easier for a child to put on themselves.* The battery is a big fat PIA to change. The newer version is much, much easier.
