MEMI can solve this problem by a slim iPhone-compatible smart bracelet that discreetly vibrates when you receive an important phone call, text message or calendar alert. The best part is you can customize the people – like your boss, babysitter, parents, or significant other – who "break through" to your bracelet via an app so that you can put your phone away without worrying you're going to miss something important.
