The Alarm Clock That Wakes You Like a Sunrise, Not a Fire Drill

Phone out of the bedroom, sunrise in.

If your phone is your alarm, your phone is also the last thing you look at every night. Hatch built the Restore 3 to fix that: a bedside sleep clock that winds you down at night and wakes you with light instead of a blaring alarm. It caught our eye, so our crew dug in, and it's on our list to check out. Here's what we found, plus the perks that make it easy to try. Let's dig in.

What the Restore 3 Is

A smart sleep clock for "phone-free sleep routines," in Hatch's words: light, sound and a sunrise alarm in one device, controlled with the Hatch Sleep app.

Standout Features

  • Sunrise alarm

    A gradual light that mimics sunrise, with wind chimes.

  • Sleep sounds

    A range of sounds for winding down.

  • App control

    The Hatch Sleep app on iPhone and Android.

  • Hatch+ membership

    30 days included. The clock works without it; the membership adds extra content.

Who It's Best For

Guys who hit snooze five times, anyone trying to cut late-night scrolling, and couples on different wake-up times. Also an easy holiday gift.

What We Want to Find Out

  • Whether the sunrise actually gets us up without the alarm sound.

  • How much you really need Hatch+ after the free month.

  • Setup time and any app annoyances.
