          Do you plan on integrating IOT devices with the Pavlok? One perfect implementation i thought about, would be a little sensor you’d place on your fridge handle (something the size of an Amazon Dash button or a TrackR Bravo), that would communicate with Pavlok through Bluetooth and shock you whenever you open your fridge outside certain hour windows. This idea could be extended to your car if you have an alcohol problem for example.

          Just thinking outside the box because i love your product but believe it should go a step further with real life applications which at this point require a manual input. I think the association with remote sensors a-la TrackR would be fantastic. Just my 2 cents…
