Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Dream Sock pulse oximeter work?
The Dream Sock pulse oximeter uses advanced sensors to monitor your baby's heart rate, oxygen saturation, and sleep patterns. This data is sent to the Owlet Dream App in real-time, allowing you to view the latest readings at any time.
Thanks to the notification feature, you will be alerted immediately if the readings fall outside the safe range. This allows you to react quickly and ensure your baby's safety.
The Owlet Dream App also stores the data, so you can track your baby's health and sleep trends over time. With the pulse oximeter, you always have all the important information at your fingertips and can closely monitor your baby's development.
What is the difference between the Smart Sock 3 and the Dream Sock?
Heart rate, oxygen saturation & sleep patterns: Both socks track this important data and send notifications or alerts when necessary. The Dream Sock also notifies you of your baby's strong movements.
Medical accuracy: The Dream Sock offers clinically tested and certified medical accuracy. In contrast, the Smart Sock 3 is not a certified medical device and is intended to provide insight into your baby's well-being. Both products use pulse oximetry to collect data.
Owlet Dream App: An evolution of the previous Owlet Care App. Look forward to technical improvements and regular updates. The Care App remains usable, but will no longer be developed further. Both cams (1st and 2nd generation) are compatible with the Dream App.
Predictive Sleep Technology: Both socks offer charts on sleep patterns as well as pulse and oxygen. The Dream Sock goes a step further with the new Predictive Sleep Technology. Based on various data, this calculates your baby's ideal bedtime and notifies you when the next potential sleep window is approaching.
Is the Dream Sock safe for infants?
Yes, the Dream Sock is safe for infants. The pulse oximeter is medically certified and has been specially developed for monitoring heart rate and oxygen saturation in babies. It is worn comfortably on the foot and offers gentle, non-invasive monitoring.
The Dream Sock is intended for use with infants and toddlers aged 0 to 18 months or weighing between 2.5 and 13.6 kg. It has been clinically tested and provides reliable and accurate measurement of your baby's vital signs, giving you peace of mind at all times.
What sets the Dream Sock apart from other baby monitors?
The Dream Sock differs from conventional baby monitors through its ability to track detailed health data such as heart rate and oxygen saturation in real-time and send it to the Owlet Dream App. This medically certified and clinically tested device offers high accuracy and reliability. Thanks to the alarm function, you are alerted immediately if vital signs are unusual.
The Dream Sock is comfortable to wear on your baby's foot and allows for non-invasive monitoring without disturbing sleep or play. With the Owlet Dream App, you can keep an eye on your baby's vital signs from anywhere, providing you with a high level of security and peace of mind.
The limit for a red alarm is set at below 50 BPM or above 220 BPM for the pulse rate or below 80% for oxygen saturation. Why? That seems too low to me.
The preset ranges for the Dream Sock account for common circumstances that may occur with users and are suitable for minimizing unnecessary notifications. These parameters have been validated through clinical studies that examined the prevalence of alerts requiring medical action. If you are concerned about your child’s readings, even if they are not approaching the set notification thresholds, please discuss them with a doctor.
Can I monitor my baby's sleep from anywhere?
Yes, with the Owlet Dream App, you can track your baby's sleep from anywhere.
You connect the Owlet Dream Sock to your local Wi-Fi network. The real-time readings from the Dream Sock pulse oximeter are then sent directly to your smartphone, no matter where you are and without your smartphone needing to be on the same Wi-Fi network. This allows you to stay informed about your baby’s heart rate, oxygen saturation, and sleep patterns at all times. This continuous monitoring gives you the peace of mind that you are always aware of your baby’s status and can react quickly if necessary.
How can I determine if the Dream Sock fabric sock fits my baby correctly?
The Dream Sock comes with fabric socks in two sizes to ensure a comfortable and secure fit for babies between 2.5 and 13.6 kg. Unlike a finger sensor or wristband, the sock fits like a glove at all times.
How reliable are the results?
The Dream Sock delivers reliable results thanks to its medical certification and clinical testing. Its sensors measure your baby's heart rate and oxygen saturation with high accuracy via pulse oximetry (+/- 3% compared to arterial blood gas analysis). Real-time monitoring and instant notifications for abnormal readings provide you with peace of mind and confidence in monitoring your child.
What is pulse oximetry?
Pulse oximetry uses a light sensor to measure oxygen saturation and heart rate through light reflection - also known from the finger clip at the doctor's office. The measurement is taken there using the small red clip that is placed on your finger when you are in the hospital. A small light shines on your skin. Depending on how much light reaches a sensor, the blood volume and oxygen levels are recorded. The same technology is also in our Dream Sock.
Can I clean the Dream Sock and the sensor?
Yes, you should clean your fabric sock and the sensor every two weeks. This helps you avoid skin irritation for your child.
What causes skin irritation?
The three causes of skin irritation under the sensor include:
1. Buildup of dirt, oils, and bacteria because the sensor was not cleaned.
2. Using a soap that dries out, irritates, or is too harsh for the baby's sensitive skin.
3. If the soap is not completely rinsed off the sensor after cleaning.
How does Predictive Sleep work?
Our Predictive Sleep technology utilizes neuroprotective sleep research and behavioral sleep intervention methods, which also leverage sleep-wake homeostasis. Sleep-wake homeostasis is regulated by a sleep hormone that builds pressure until it reaches a tipping point that triggers sleep. This pressure builds throughout the day, though more frequently in infants and children, requiring them to take one nap—or several naps—during the day. These naps can last anywhere from 20 minutes to 3 hours, depending on how much sleep your baby needs, how much they have slept previously, how long they have been awake, their age, and their
development.
Can I connect multiple Owlet products to the app?
Yes, the Owlet Dream™ App supports multiple child profiles and Owlet devices, allowing you to use them for more than one child. Be sure to keep your sensor socks and their assigned base stations separate for each child to avoid any confusion in the event of a notification.
What is the maximum range between the sock and the base station?
Up to 9 meters.
How long does the Dream Sock sensor battery last?
The sensor has a battery life of up to 16 hours (when new) and can be charged in just 20 minutes for an 8-hour charge and in just 90 minutes for a full 16-hour charge (drop-and-go). It is recommended to charge the sensor at least once a day when the Dream Sock™ is in use.
What is the backup battery in the base station?
The backup battery in the base station can provide an emergency power supply for up to 10 minutes in the event of a power outage. A yellow medium-priority alarm is triggered if the power supply is interrupted (the device is disconnected from the mains). Simply tap the charging station to silence the alarm, move it to the new location, and restore the power supply.
Do I need a subscription for the app?
The Owlet Dream App is free to download and use. It does not require a monthly subscription or a long-term contract.
Does the Dream Sock still work if the Wi-Fi goes down?
Yes, if your base station is glowing green, the Dream Sock™ is tracking your baby’s oxygen level and pulse rate and will notify you if the readings leave the preset ranges, even if your Owlet Dream™ App or Wi-Fi are down.
