How does AYO Work?

1. Special Blue Light stimulates eye cells - Similar to the sunlight, AYO`s soft blue light enters your eyes and stimulates sensory cells called photosensitive Retinal Ganglion cells (ipRGCs).
2. Regulates Production Power of Sleep Hormone - Activated cells send signals to the brain area called suprachiasmatic Nucleus to suppress the production of melatonin. This helps your internal body clock to be optimized according to your lifestyle.
3. Sleep Cycle qand energy levels are improved - You will feel energized immediately after melatonin suppression. As a result, before your bedtime, melatonin levels will rise actively, so you can fall asleep easily.

Which effects does Ayo has on you after using it?

Short-term effects

When your eyes are exposed to AYO?s blue light, it signals your body to wake up by suppressing the level of melatonin. As a result, you will feel more energized and active in a natural way.

Long-term effects

By being exposed to AYO light about 20 minutes a day with the right timing and intensity, your body rhythm will be optimized. As a result, your sleep patterns and energy levels will be improved.

Frequent asked questions

The battery charging lights on the AYO case show up for a few seconds and then they shut off. Is that normal behavior?

This is a normal behavior of the AYO case and its battery indicator. When you make a connection (either between the case and a power source or between the wearable and the case when laying the wearable inside the case), the battery light indicator would blink for a few seconds to show there is a connection created and then it will shut off to preserve the battery.

However, once you have made a charging connection, the charging process will continue (even though it is not blinking unless you tap on the battery light indicator) until full charge.

I get an error using more than one program. What to do?

Once you set a program in the AYO app and start using your AYO wearable, you begin to adjust your biological clock in order to achieve a certain shift. This means also that in majority of the times, the AYO programs are not compatible with one another. Therefore, in certain cases, the AYO app would give you an error message that you have already an active program in place and need to cancel it first in order to proceed with another program. In case you have an active:

• Travel program, you can only run the Energy program in addition to it.
• Sleep program, you can only run the Energy program in addition to it.
• Chronolink program, you can only run the Energy program in addition to it.
• Chronofit program, you can only run the Energy program in addition to it.

In case you receive an error message that you have an active program already in place but you'd like to start a new one, please go to SCHEDULE menu via the AYO app and cancel any active program. Then you can start any program that you like.
