Hello and thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re thrilled to hear that AYO has significantly improved your sleep and energy levels—helping our customers achieve better sleep and well-being is at the heart of everything we do.
We also appreciate your candid comments, and we’d like to address the points you raised:
App Use and Privacy
We’d like to clarify that the AYO app is not mandatory for using the wearable. You can enjoy the benefits of the product without the app by following the included usage guidelines.
If you do choose to use the app, its purpose is to enhance your experience and provide personalized recommendations based on your preferences and sleep patterns. Regarding your privacy concerns, we want to assure you that we handle your data with the utmost care. Per our Privacy Policy (https://goayo.com/ToU/):
"Such information will not be sold, licensed, distributed, or otherwise provided to third parties without your express written consent, except to process payment information."
Your sleep and health data is used solely to improve your experience and provide better recommendations, and we’re always happy to discuss our practices further if you have any concerns.
App Pricing
We’d also like to kindly clarify a misunderstanding about the app’s pricing. The Lifetime membership is currently discounted to $70 (regular price $299) as we continue to build exciting functionalities that will be launched in 2025. The Annual membership is priced at $59 per year, not per month. We hope this clears up any confusion! Lastly, please note that within the 60-day return period, you can request a full refund of your AYO + app or only of the app and keep the wearable if you prefer this way.
Battery and Charging
The AYO wearable is designed for typical use of 20–30 minutes daily, allowing the battery to last up to a week on a single charge. We’re sorry to hear about your charging frustrations. Regarding the wireless charging case, you may have seen information about our original AYO model (2017-2019 edition), which included this feature. However, due to customer feedback about convenience, charging time, etc., we transitioned to direct charging to streamline and improve the process.
If you’re using the device for extended periods beyond the recommended usage (e.g., 1–3 hours daily), the battery life may understandably be impacted. If you have further concerns about this, we’d be happy to explore potential solutions with you.
We value your feedback and your trust in AYO. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly—we’re here to help.
Warm regards,
AYO team
