Frequently asked questions
Is the Owlet Dream Sock a medical device?
Yes, it received FDA clearance as a prescription-free pulse oximeter for healthy infants. That said, it is not a replacement for traditional monitoring or medical diagnosis; always follow your pediatrician's guidance.
Does it work without Wi-Fi?
The sock pairs with the base station over Bluetooth and works locally without Wi-Fi. You need Wi-Fi only to push alerts to your phone and to use the Owlet app for sleep insights.
What's the difference between the Dream Sock and the older Smart Sock?
Dream Sock adds sleep-quality tracking (wakings, movement, sleep state) and uses a more comfortable single-sock design. The discontinued Smart Sock only tracked heart rate and oxygen with no sleep insights.
Do I need to subscribe to anything?
No subscription is required for core features (live heart rate, oxygen, alerts, base station). The optional Owlet360 subscription unlocks deeper trend analytics, longer history, and personalized sleep reports.
