My Review

Overall I think the Robin Day Clock is an amazing option for people looking for a simple way to display the current day of the week, time, and date. This is the main function I was looking for when looking at different options. I was looking for something to help orient my grandmother with dementia as she was repeatedly asking us what time it was, day it was etc. I liked that the display itself was large and could be customized to some degree. It’s possible to change the color schemes / contrast themes. I also LOVED that there is a button on the clock that announces the day and time. Finally, a feature that is neat but one we don’t use is the ability to add custom reminders and events. These can be a one time thing like a doctor appointment or recurring like a birthday, holiday, or therapy appointment. 

One thing to consider before purchasing the Robin Day Clock is that all of these functions and tasks could be accomplished using a product like Amazon Echo Show or a comparable Google product. But, those items (while amazing in their own right) could be overly confusing or complicated for some people. They offer many additional features that may be unnecessary and contribute to cognitive or sensory overload.

If you’re looking for a simple way to automatically display the current day of the week, date, time and simple reminders I would suggest the Robin Day Clock.
