4.0 out of 5 starsIt sounds strange, but it works! The Apollo Wearable Health – Stress Relief & Natural Sleep Aid has improved my sleep in a major way. If you are someone who is in constant “fight or flight” mode, this might help. My only complaint is that I would like to battery to last a bit longer. It does need to be charged when you wake up, or before you go to bed.I’ve struggled with sleep for years, due to stress and was surprised that this works. It is not cheap but it was a good purchase for me. More sleep at night has helped with my energy level during the day and it is a calming feeling at night when I turn it on. My dad, who is 79, also got one of the watches and has seen a drastic improvement in his sleep at well.Take a chance and give it a try!

5.0 out of 5 starsBefore purchasing the Apollo, I was quite skeptical about whether it could truly live up to its promises. I initially bought it to help with my sleep issues, and to my delight, it has done just that—and more. This device not only improved my sleep significantly but also enhanced my overall well-being in ways I didn’t expect.The Apollo has multiple settings to choose from, each tailored to a different part of the day or a specific need, such as relaxation, focus, or energy. I was pleasantly surprised by how effectively these modes helped me transition through various parts of my day. The subtle vibrations seem to nudge my body into the desired state without any intrusive sensations.Although I had reservations about its battery life, with mindful management and regular charging routines, I haven’t found it to be a significant inconvenience. Yes, it could be better, but it’s a small trade-off for the benefits it offers.Overall, the Apollo has exceeded my expectations and proven its worth in multiple aspects of my daily routine. For anyone sitting on the fence about trying this device, I recommend giving it a shot. It might just surprise you as much as it did me. Five stars, without a doubt!

5.0 out of 5 starsI’ve had trouble sleeping for a long time. I tried different things, but nothing really stuck. I decided to give Apollo a shot and after using it for the past few weeks, I can already feel the effects! It’s been over ten years since I slept this well through the night. I totally recommend Apollo to other night owls who want a good night’s rest. 😴

4.0 out of 5 starsThe capabilities of this device as well as the scientific backing of the underlying principles is wonderful. I like to use this in conjunction with other entrainment/neuroanalysis tech- particularly with flowtime brainwave sensorband.Great value, easy to use, compact and comfortable! looks sleek, and is lightweight. I have noticed it does vibrate such that others may feel it if laying on the same bed for example, mainly at higher intensity settings.

2.0 out of 5 starsThis is my 2nd apollo. I lost the first one. The app is still abysmal & customer service is worse. I got the device working by myself except the app still only connects 3 out of 10 times. This device has been on the market for years with plenty of customer complaints, yet apollo has not fixed the app or improved customer service one bit!

5.0 out of 5 starsI’m glad I invested in this. It’s been a big help and I have noticed a difference in the way I feel and sleep. Definitely recommend!

5.0 out of 5 starsWhen the Apollo Neuro works, it’s really great! This is the THIRD time I have tried it (I return ed the 1st because it stopped working after 2 weeks and the 2nd because it would NOT pair with Bluetooth).I decided to give it one last shot (I think I bought 2 through the Apollo website and 1 through Amazon) because I could see that it was a great concept that needed to have the bugs worked out.I even emailed the company and said “You have a great product, WHEN IT WORKS. Please, work out the bugs so that it reliably functions”.They appear to have done just that (why a company would release a product before it was ready for the market, I don’t know, but again, NOW it seems to be working as it should). Actually, the maker (they are in Utah) did themselves a disservice by releasing it before it was reliably functional. See all those negative reviews? They don’t say that the product doesn’t effortlessly relax you or let you get some good sleep. They say “It stopped working or It wouldn’t pair with Bluetooth”.Anyway, I’m really glad that it gave this device ONE more try.For me, it has been wonderful.So far, I’ve only used Calm, Unwind and Sleep, but they all do exactly what they say they will with no effort on my part. Well, “NO effort” is a bit of an overstatement. If a person wants to relax and they wear the Apollo Neuro while they do their taxes, they are obviously not going to be as relaxed as they would be if they sit quietly in a calm place.So, I just sit quietly in a comfortable place and put them on. I’m really noise sensitive (and I mean REALLY noise sensitive- I have what’s called hyperacusis) and I can hardly hear these. Now, the higher you turn up them up (you can chose from 1 to 100% within each division -Energy, Social, Focus, Recover, Calm, Unwind and Sleep), the more noise they will make.However, I generally use them at 100% and don’t have a problem with the noise. There’s one setting, I think it’s Calm, where the intensity is too much for me and I use it at about 50% and that’s plenty for me.As I said, I haven’t tried the Energy, Social, Focus or Recover modes. My problem is unwinding and relaxing. I don’t need to be more social, I need to be calmer! (Although, I will point out that when I am very relaxed, I AM more socially at ease).In terms of unobtrusiveness, you can wear them around your ankle (something I have not tried- I use them on my wrist). If you did this, and you didn’t use them on the highest setting, it might be interesting to see how they would work in a work setting (say with a stressful talk with your boss).They are not SILENT though, so you’d have to test beforehand if you were going to try to use them surreptitiously, to see what intensity would not be heard by another person.I can say that I use mine around my husband and he’s unaware that I am using them.So, what do they do? Again, for me, I can only comment on the relaxing selections.Essentially, with a minimum of effort (being somewhere that’s nice and quiet), they meditate you.You don’t have to DO anything.As someone who has a really hard time meditating, I find that genuinely amazing.I’m honestly grateful for this technology and the reason I wrote “fingers crossed” in the title of this review is SO FAR, they are functioning perfectly (A few weeks.) They do have a MBG, so if they were to stop working (which I actually don’t think they will this time, because everything has worked like clockwork), I will have to return them a 4th time.So far, so good (actually really, really good), though!I will update this if they start showing any problems.

4.0 out of 5 starsI like that the Apollo can help your body with what it needs, but I didn’t realize those features would be not accessible and less you pay for the extra subscription. At this price point I think it should be included. I also think that the band for your ankle should be included since they recommend that for sleep. However, I have noticed a difference in my sleep and my anxiety. I work in a very noisy special education classroom that can be very overstimulating and this helps me stay calmer. If I wake in the night, it helps me go back to sleep quicker. I think it’s worth a try for anybody that could benefit from these things. I also think it would be nice if it wasn’t so bulky and hard.

4.0 out of 5 starsI would like to note that Apollo ended up replacing my pod and band. This unit is working well and I’m much happier with the black band as it doesn’t show the dirt much like the gray band. Thank you for making this right. As mentioned below…I love the product. I sleep better, no a-fib since I’ve had the unit and my anxiety is so much better.I really like the product, but the customer service has been deplorable. I had already recommended and sold three other friends on the product before I started having issues with the customer service department.I’ve made numerous phone calls and I still yet not getting management calling me back, which is very discouraging, my therapist is very interested in the product regarding anxiety etc. but I told him to hold off until I learn more about how they’re going to handle issues. I had issues with my band falling off my wrist and the light color collect dirt very easily. I called within my 30 days and they only recommended I could get a different color band, which does not match the pod. I called back two weeks later stating I still had not received the band replacement, and it had fallen off my wrist two more times. In addition, the side buttons were not working in the middle of the night for the sleep vibe.I was told I was not able to get a replacement, even though I’d only had it for six weeks when side buttons not working properly, and had originally called within the four week period for exchanges or replacement when I just had the band coming off my wrist and dirt issue.After calling, asking for management to call over the last week they finally shipped out the black band. But I still have the issue of not matching my pod or the side button is not working.

1.0 out of 5 starsI’ve used this device for a few years. Recently Apollo rolled out a new feature that requires gathering data about your daily habits to implement. I wasn’t interested, so I dismissed this screen, but today, I couldn’t get into the app at all–and thus couldn’t use the device I’d paid for–without answering the questions. I sent a message to support to ask if this was a fluke, but if not, this is predatory, anti-consumer behavior, and all the more reason not to support any company that requires an app to use a product you’ve already paid for. They’ll do precisely this: hold hostage something you’ve already bought until you hand over your data. Shoshana Zuboff’s book Surveillance Capitalism talks about precisely this kind of behavior and how pervasive it’s become in modern markets. I’m disappointed to see Apollo stoop this low. If this is how they behave with customers who have already trusted them, I have very little trust in anything they say about their product or that they’ll act in the best interests of their users in general.

5.0 out of 5 starsMy wife suggested I get an Apollo and I was definitely skeptical but decided to give it a go. In short, it changed my life. This thing is amazing. Helps me be much more social, helps my workouts, helps me sleep, the “Power Nap” is amazing, I cannot say enough bout it! Ended up buying 3 more for each member of my family! I am a true believer.

3.0 out of 5 starsI have had the Apollo Neuro for 3 1/2 months now. I find it very helpful at promoting higher quality sleep which I quantify using my Oura ring. I typically set it to sleep mode for the max duration, 120 minutes, when I am headed to bed. It shuts itself off at the end of the cycle. I honestly have not used it for much else.The big negative I have is that the battery drains quickly. If I wake up in the middle of the night and want to start another cycle to get back to sleep the battery is typically drained making it useless. In the device’s defense, I like it at a level 30 which drains the battery more quickly than, say, a level 10. Perhaps if I used it at a lower level I could get that second round off of 1 charge? I will have to give that a shot and update.Overall, science backed useful product, particularly for increasing quality of sleep.

4.0 out of 5 starsI’ve had the Apollo for almost 6 months and honestly love it, but there are some major cons IMO. That being said, I don’t like taking it off even to charge it…something about it really works. Would buy again, but read on for cons.Pros:- it seems to work, having an overall strong calming effect- centers me/reminds me I have a body- the schedule option in the app is really nice, to set times of day it just comes on with different settings- relatively long battery life if you use it intermittently- charges quicklyCons:- highly overpriced (IMO) since it has exactly 1 function, to vibrate- app can be unreliable, sometimes I have to shut down and restart to get it to turn on the Apollo unit.- vibration seems unreliable as far as intensity – sometimes I have to turn it all the way up to feel any vibration, and other times I can barely stand to have it on because it’s so intense at a low setting.- paywall for better app function – which I won’t do for a subscription. at this high a price point I should get the entire functionality of the product.- the clip slips off the unit at times/falls off of me, would like a tighter clip- when on the wrist band (which I would prefer, less sweaty) it vibrates outwardly more than onto my wrist, meaning it’s loud and vibrates anything I touch, and I hardly feel the vibration at all. have tried different configurations on wrist and ankle to same result, can barely feel the vibration on higher settings.

5.0 out of 5 starsThis product is amazing. I’m sleeping like I I did before kids! It helps me relax when I’m feeling stressed out and be more productive in my daily life. If you have been curious to see if it works for you, I say definitely try it!! You do have to charge it during the day, but I haven’t had a problem taking it off for awhile to do that. It recharges quickly.

1.0 out of 5 starsSomeone bought this Apollo Neuro (order AN139778) for me and I have been trying to contact support for some time with no answer. Lately I asked to return it based on their 30 days guarantee. I will see how it goes and update here.UPDATEAs I said, I got in touch and asked for a return since I was within 30 days of purchase of Apollo Neuro. They did reply, and told me I would be refunded. But has been more than 10 days since their last email. I did ask if what happened but so far no reply. I will post here if I get any reply from them.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Apollo Neuro device has been a game-changer for my overall well-being. Its value is unmatched, offering top-notch quality and a battery life that exceeds expectations. I’ve experienced a significant reduction in heart palpitations, and the device has worked wonders in helping me fall asleep faster. The calming effect it has on my anxiety is genuinely remarkable. If you’re looking for a reliable solution to enhance your mental health, the Apollo Neuro is worth every penny!

5.0 out of 5 starsI got this due to an emotional challenge in life. I have come to love the sleep mode. I cannot sleep it. My vagus nerve is slowly healing . I use it on my. Ankle and use the schedule it provides. I recommend this to anyone that wants sometime assist them feeling better.

5.0 out of 5 starsUse it consistently. Excellent experience throughout the day – and substantial improvement in sleep quality. Strongly recommend it’s use.

5.0 out of 5 starsI have an MA and MSc in psychology so read the studies before deciding to buy one for my mother. She found it so effective, that she then bought one for me! haha We both use our Appolo Neuro daily. I mostly use it to relax, when I meditate, or to deepen my level of calm and presence during long engaging conversations. The app is user-friendly, the charge lasts an adequate length of time, and the device is comfortable to wear. I reccommend it.
Oklahoma Buyer –
1.0 out of 5 starsI literally did a coin toss trying to decide whether to order this product with all the bad reviews. I really wanted it to work, sounded good on Dr. Perlmutter’s interview with the creator but the tech just doesn’t work! Couldn’t get it to pair with my phone no matter what I did. I asked my husband to double check me and he couldn’t get it to work either so back it goes!

3.0 out of 5 starsThe company needs to address the problems with connectivity to the app. How can someone obtain stress relief and relaxation when the device constantly disconnects from the app and stops the vibrations? I found this device to incite anxiety because it wouldn’t function right even on a full charge. Don’t waste your money on a device that doesn’t function. The concept is great… if only it worked as described. Would be worth another look of the company could rework the device or app.**Edit—- Good customer service. The company reached out to me within days of posting this review to offer me a refund. They also sent somehelpful tips on how to keep the vibrations going even if the app disconnects. I appreciated them reaching out quickly and trying to make it right with a customer. I’m willing to give it another try.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe device is amazing and makes a difference. The bands are not very effective & need better velcro. I use the belt clip instead.

2.0 out of 5 starsI bought this for my husband hoping it would help him sleep at night. He did not like the app or the fact that the battery did not last long. He also didn’t like that you have to use the app. It may work for other people, it’s just not for him.

5.0 out of 5 starsIt does work to calm me down and for nervous system regulation. I had an issue and their customer service team reached out to me and solved this issue quickly. I really appreciate their customer support. Thank you!
Ms. Deborah Lawrence –
5.0 out of 5 starsI bought this for the SmartVibes feature while I sleep. They claimed that it would lengthen my deep sleep and it certainly has! Right from the first night and it seems to do so consistently. It’s a bit bulky on my wrist so not the most comfortable to wear but I’m getting used to it. I track my sleep and it really seems to be helping. Thank you!
