The new Restore 3 smart sleep clock adds four phone-free controls, aimed at helping users focus on sleep and reduce screen time.


Summary: Hatch has launched the Restore 3, a smart sleep clock designed to enhance sleep routines while reducing phone usage. Based on user feedback, the Restore 3 introduces four new phone-free controls, including options to pause, adjust volume, and activate a nightlight directly on the device. The clock also offers personalized routines, a redesigned app, and high-quality sound to improve the sleep experience. The Restore 3 aims to help users establish healthier sleep habits by limiting screen time and providing more intuitive, hands-on controls.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Phone-Free Controls: Restore 3 introduces four new controls directly on the device, allowing users to adjust settings like volume, pause, and nightlight without needing their phone.
  2. Personalized Sleep Routines: The device offers customizable routines, designed based on user feedback, to guide users through their sleep journey.
  3. Enhanced Sleep Experience: With improved sound quality, a redesigned app, and a focus on reducing screen time, Restore 3 aims to help users build healthier sleep habits.

Hatch has launched Restore 3, a new version of its smart sleep clock, offering a more phone-free sleep experience with enhanced controls and personalized routines designed to help users establish healthier sleep habits.

Restore 3 was built with user feedback in mind. Users wanted more help getting started. So Restore 3 now offers personalized light and audio routines designed to guide users through their sleep journeys. Users wanted more ways to ease into bed. Now, they can rotate through their favorite Unwind Routines (immersive light and audio, including bedtime podcasts and music, purposefully built to get users ready for sleep) with the press of a button. 

And, users felt their routine was too phone-heavy. Now, the Restore 3 adds four new controls directly to the device to allow users to pause, alter the volume, activate a nightlight, and more, all phone-free, so they can focus more on sleep and less on screen time.

“We’re surrounded by screens that are great at helping us navigate, search for things, document moments, and stay connected. But at night, we need boundaries,” says Ann Crady Weiss, co-founder and CEO of Hatch, in a release. “We strive to build the best products that help people get the best sleep, and Restore 3’s mission is to do just that. We’ve added new controls and more content allowing you to limit screen time. The new Restore makes it easier to say good night phone, hello sleep, through purpose-built routines that help build healthy sleep habits for life.”

  • Sleep Sounds – Sleep deeply and drown out background noises with 60-plus sleep sounds inspired by nature and backed by science, including a set of unique, soothing sounds like Around the Home (eg, dishwasher, box fan, laundry machine), Rain & Water (eg, distant thunder, rain on a canvas tent), and more.
  • High Quality Sound – Experience improved audio so you can hear content in higher fidelity, with enhanced bass response and better overall clarity.
  • New Hatch App – Customize your sleep routine with a redesigned app that’s more intuitive, with a single home screen for your routine and a more personalized library experience.
