For me, it’s very helpful in the ways it prevents me from oversleeping. I have it set to that in order to turn off my alarm, I have to go scan the barcode on my mouthwash in my bathroom, thus forcing me out of bed. The sleep tracking features are neat too and will hopefully wake you up when you’re out of deep sleep so you’re less groggy in the morning.
Another shout-out for Sonic Robo Blast! I absolutely love that game.
