    The Owlet - Cam 2 & Dream Sock Duo is perfect for monitoring your new born/infant. The camera system is outstanding, the app works well on your mobile device (I use the iPhone version), and the entire solution is easy to setup. Now I can be aware of key metrics about my child anywhere at any time. The camera quality is great. You can how you baby is doing from your mobile device and attend to your child at moments notice if necessary, thanks to the Owlet - Cam 2 & Dream Sock Duo. The included sock helps you stay away of important information such as heart rate (displayed in BMP), room temperature, oxygen levels in the room, and movement tracking so you can tell if your baby is moving around a lot, or resting peacefully. Really helping you stay on top of your baby's comfort and needs before they have to utter one cry. Adjust temperature if you observe it has become uncomfortable. Reposition if it appears they are not in a comfortable position. You can know when it's time to change them and more, all from being able to monitor your child on a vivid HD camera with audio capability. The app is very easy to use. The options are intuitive. No issues experienced with the app whatsoever. I believe the Owlet - Cam 2 & Dream Sock Duo is a must have for parent of new borns/infants. It will make your life easier and remove a lot of the guess work involved in keeping your child safe, comfortable, and happy. You can know at all times the status of your child.

    These devices refused to connect to my WiFi. I turned off my 5.0ghz, sat right next to the router, the sock wouldn’t connect & the camera wouldn’t connect either. Then the company says to download another app, not developed by them, and give it access to my wifi network so that it can scan everything to get my network up to their specs…no thanks. After multiple tries, it wouldn’t connect; I’m done with it. Others might have better luck but in my scenario, it’s a useless device.

    Fell short

    I had high hopes for this product, but unfortunately, my experience fell short. Upon unboxing, I removed the sticker shield from the camera, only to find that it left behind several spots of stubborn residue. Despite cleaning the surface with Q-tips and alcohol, I couldn’t completely remove it, which left me feeling like the camera’s integrity was compromised. When I proceeded to set it up, I encountered more issues. Despite having a Deco Wi-Fi mesh system with three satellites and 1 GB upload/download speeds, I couldn’t get the camera to connect to my network. After multiple attempts and enabling the 2.4 GHz radio on my router, it still wouldn’t connect. Given the setup frustrations and my concerns about the app’s functionality after reviewing it, I ultimately decided to return the product. While the concept of this monitor is appealing, the execution left much to be desired in my case.

    Sock and base station are great. Helps lessen new Mom anxiety. Only item I’m not a fan of is the camera. It often won’t load and I need to unplug then plug back in. Frustrating. I would have rather bought the owlet sock and Nanit Pro camera instead.

    Don’t waste your money on the owlet! I’d rather have nothing at all than one of these! The sock can’t be worn with footed pajamas since the sock has the monitor on the side. The sock isn’t the easiest to put on especially with moving babies or premature babies with smaller feet! The app sends you notifications just like all other apps and doesn’t stand out to let you know there’s a problem, motion or sound detected. Seriously the biggest waste of money!

    Data and HD Video all in one

    We have 7 children and have used other versions of the owlet smart sock in the past. I was excited to see this newer version and updated camera set. Even after several kids, I am still nervous and wonder, is the baby breathing, how are they doing, etc… and this sock and camera duo help alleviate my concerns. Like most things these days there are no printed instructions. Rather you download the mobile app and follow the prompts. First you will set up your account and answer some questions. Be sure to set up your child's profile before you try to connect or pair the sock. After pairing the sock you can then connect the camera. Point and scan the QR code to get the phone connected to the app. From start to finish the set up was around 20 minutes or so. You do get two socks in the pack, one for babies under 12 pounds ,and then the other for babies 12 pounds to 30 pounds. I really appreciate being able to continue to track their data as they grow. The sock will help you track heart rate and blood oxygen levels. Very useful with newborns. The camera has fantastic video, and is good quality. You will also get ambient room temperature which is great to know if the room is getting too cold or too hot for your little one. The new camera offers these updates, get notified when sound, motion, or crying is detected in your baby’s room, watch and save video clips to your personal device, and eliminate guesswork around naptime with Predictive Sleep Technology in the Owlet Dream App. These are very nice upgrades from the previous camera model. With this camera you will be streaming 1080p HD video over your home wifi. You can log in to the app from anywhere. Watch video clips of the baby as well. You get two way communication and 130 degree viewing. Night vision will enhance the image so you can see them in the dark. After using this for a few weeks, I am blown away. Love the video quality and the clips I can go back and watch. I really like the data I get about my baby. We have had many different monitors over the years with all our kids, and Owlet to me is the leader of the pack. Each iteration is better than the last.

    The Camera is a Must

    The latest version of the Owlet Cam and Sock duo has some amazing features I didn't know I needed. The app can even let you know if your baby is having a hard time getting back to sleep, and will tell you if you need to go comfort her. Additionally, it monitors her heart rate, average oxygen level, movement, wakings, humidity, room temperature, and sleep status. Having all of this on your cell phone, both real-time, and historic data, can allow you to keep an eye on changes in your child, as well as having real data to show your pediatrician if you feel your child is having issues that should be discussed with her doctor. Previously, I had the first generation sock, however, I did not have the camera. I did have a baby monitor, but if wasn't viewable using my phone, so the two just didn't quite pair well. What I mean is that sometimes the sock comes loose or get mispositioned, resulting in the app notifying me that it isn't receiving data. When paired with the camera, I can immediately check on my daughter, and see if there is an issue or not. This is well worth the extra cost if you don't have a network connected baby monitor.

    The sock works as it should after we did a 24hr update. The camera still is not working. The owlet support won’t do anything to try to fix it. They said it’s a known problem and that they are suppose to send out an up date next month. Total wast of money.

    You're a new parent and you want to protect your kids with everything in your power. This kit combines the smart sock and the Owlet Cam 2 together in a nice package. I've used other the owlet smart sock before with my first two kids and been very impressed with the features that it offers. It helped calm both my wife and my fears of having a newborn knowing that the o2 levels and breathing were where they were supposed to be. This one is no different. Setup is relatively easy and you get several socks along with the sensor so you can swap them out when needed. I've learned that with owlet you will get the occasional false alert and disconnection alert but it kind of comes with the territory. The Cam 2 is new to me. My wife and I have been thru at least 3 cameras that are camera/base setups that the monitor part normally fails within a year or stops charging or whatever. The Owlet Cam moves all that to our mobile devices so there is no monitor to lug around or replace. This camera offers high quality HD Video and night vision straight to your phone. It's offers a 130 degree wide angle of your baby. It can tell you the temperature and humidity, which unlike other monitors it seems rather accurate, to let you know the room is comfortable. It offers alerts for motion and sound detection as well. This thing is pretty awesome. The Dream app actually guides you to when your babys next nap might go down. All you have to do is log in his/her nap times and it keeps track of when the next nap might happens so you can avoid the cranky baby. My wife and I swear by the owlet products and recommend them to parents who cherish a good nights sleep. The new features on the app just add to the exceptional products offered by Owlet.
