Smartphones make for problematic alarm clocks. When they’re in your bedroom, you’re tempted to squeeze in some extra screen time, which is bad for sleep quality. The Loftie Clock has many of the same features available on your smartphone—from white noise to guided meditation to a soothing wake-up alarm—without the urge to doomscroll. The device will even lull you to sleep with AI-generated bedtime stories, personalized to what you find relaxing. If the light’s too bright, just hold down the snooze button and the clock completely darkens.
