Operating the Shock Clock 3
1. Setting Alarms

- Alarm Modes: Choose from gentle vibration, audible beep, or a safe electric zap. These can be used individually or in a customizable sequence.

2. Advanced Wake-Up Guarantees
The app offers features to ensure you get out of bed and stay awake:
- Jumping Jacks Wake Up: Requires you to perform a set number of jumping jacks to turn off the alarm, ensuring physical activity to wake you up.
- QR Code Wake Up: Requires you to scan a pre-printed QR code (placed in another room) to disable the alarm, forcing you out of bed.
- Snooze Zap: If enabled, attempting to snooze the alarm will result in a zap, discouraging further sleep.
- Smart Alarm: Uses motion detection to ensure you don't fall back asleep. If no movement is detected within 5 minutes after the alarm, it will re-trigger.

The Shock Clock 3 can track your sleep patterns and help you build positive routines:
- Sleep Tracking: Monitors your sleep cycles and can wake you during a lighter sleep phase for a more refreshed feeling.
- Habit Breaking: The zap feature can be manually triggered or set to respond to specific actions (e.g., hand raise detection) to help break unwanted habits like nail-biting or excessive phone use.
