We got one for my 9 year old son. With the app you are able to put in your child’s school schedule and even set alerts. I worked with my son’s teacher to put his schedule in and adaptive mode uses a special algorithm to send pulses when it knows your child has difficulty focusing. It also counts their steps, which my son likes. We look at the dashboard (on the app) every night together to look at his response rate and scores and then talk about successes or struggles he had for the day.

If your child’s adhd is mild you can set it to light mode and it will pulse every so many minutes ( I know medium is every 10 min, high is every 4, but I can remember light). It’s supposed to help them be more independent and make them aware if they are on task or to get back on task if they aren’t. We have had the watch since the end of December and started using it when school started back up in January. If you have anymore questions definitely let me know!

My son has been using it a month... no change at all... he’s gotten used to the vibration so it’s done nothing thus far....I forgot to charge it and then realized it wasn’t vibrating... my son didn’t even notice... maybe it works overtime... but so far I think it’s a waste of money

I got one for my son in December and it hasn't helped much. He likes the steps counter, but I could've given him my fitbit for free!

I have two Revibes and both my daughter and son love them! We had one of the original devices that came out a couple years ago, then we upgraded and got the new Revibe Connect. Really helped with homework time. Teachers noticed a difference too! I think it is worth a try. The customer service team is great and you can return it up to 90 days I think and still get a refund. They sometimes have coupon deals if you buy direct on their website revibetech.com Hope that helps!
