RE: Keen - Awareness Bracelet for Unwanted Behaviors

in #steemhunt6 years ago

Very interesting product, and on first view, I thought it was a great idea.

But I do wonder just how much use most people will actually get from it, especially long-term. Will it be another tech device which finds its way to the bottom of your drawer?

Pros:

  • Anything which helps people with bad habits to overcome them has to be good
  • Good use of tech to solve real world problems
  • Could prove good value for money - depends entirely on value brought to each individual

Cons:

  • I've bitten my nails a lot in the past, but wonder how something on my right hand would stop me biting the nails on my left?
  • If you do have a bad habit (let's say nail biting), then even if this device helps you overcome the habit, what is it's use case then?
  • Possibly too specialised a device, which would be better suited integrated into a multi-purpose wearable device (i.e. a fitness tracker)
