Customer Ratings & Reviews

It works great and gives us a lot of peace of mind! This is definitely an upgrade from the first one we had.

We are first time parents and thought this would help but the obnoxious notifications where the phone and charger would go off didn't make the restless nights better. Also our son was too small and squirmy for it.

Eh not that great return didn’t end of using doent read correctly

New version has less features then the outgoing model, the sock is way too big for anything under 9-10lb baby. The pairing process is way to hard for this expensive of a product. My wife and I are not impressed and will likley be going back.

Great product. Everything was clear and alerted when we needed.

Returned it. Doesn’t monitor much. Impossible to fit correctly. We had the smart sock for our first child and it was so much better. Absolutely not worth the money.

Wouldn’t let me check anything on my child. I might for got a bad one or maybe I didn’t know how to exactly set it up.

It stopped connecting to wifi after like 4 months and can’t get it to work now disappointing! For the price I expected it to last longer

Terrible not worth the money. Constantly disconnecting and making noise for no reason it was very annoying. Ended up returning it.

Not what was expected. Only monitors sleep not real time vitals results. Way to expensive to monitor sleep

You have to buy a subscription with this as well as the cost.

I purchased this as a gift for my family member who is expecting. We had one with our little boy and relied on it a lot so I wanted to be sure they had it too. It’s a great present. Also a safety item. It monitors the breathing.

This is so amazing! It helps me and my wife sleep at night better because it will alert you for anything. Loose and not on proper, low breathing or restless babies it’ll alert. A must have!!!

It is a great product. The only con is the Bluetooth connection distance is limited. Maybe 50 feet.

Great little device for your peace of mind while your baby sleeps.

Bought this for my sister right before she gave birth and she loves it!! I thought it would be a great gift for a first time mom. She loves it!!!!

I'm really sad that this sock had regressed in features since the Smart Sock 3 was taken off the market in the US. We've used multiple smart sock 3s since our daughter was born and I love the peace of mind that they've given us. Unfortunately, this new "Dream Sock" is pretty much a watered down version of the Smart Sock 3 for the same price. The Smart Sock 3 was able to read your child's heart rate AND blood oxygen level in real time. This new Dream Sock looks to only give you their heartrate so if you were looking for the O2 reading as a differentiator from some of their competitors, you might be able to look elsewhere again. The loss of this functionality might be an easier pill to swallow if the price wasn't the same as the Smart Sock 3 when it was available. The sensors do look very similar so maybe the sensor is still there and Owlet is just waiting for FDA approval to activate and market that functionality again but for now it stings to have a brand new sensor with less features than the one we got 2 years ago. As far as setup goes. It's fairly easy and straight forward for most wifi networks. I spent a fair bit of time troubleshooting an issue with all of my Owlet base stations that ended up being the strict DNS-over-TLS setting that I had recently enabled on the new router I bought. Owlet appears to not be able to connect to a network that uses this setting. Turning it off brought all of the base stations back and at that point it was easy to connect again. I only bring it up in case it saved someone a few hours of troubleshooting since, at the time, there was no mention of the incompatibility on their troubleshooting pages. Another thing I am not happy with on this new sock is the need for a new app for whatever reason. Apparently they were unable to update the older Owlet app with the lesser functionality of this new sock so there's a whole new app that looks and acts very similar. This is probably more of an annoyance and not a huge deal, especially if this is the only sock you have. If you have a Smart Sock 3 already and are adding this to your collection, it'll probably be more annoying. Luckily the data from the old socks are all saved on the account online so you're not losing any data or anything. Using the sock is simple. It wraps around your baby's foot and usually you'll cover it up with the footy of their PJs or a sleeper sack if they sleep in one so they can't pry it off. If we don't have our child's covered, she will almost immediately take it off. But the readings come in and we haven't experienced any false alarms or weird positioning of this sock yet. It's a rare occurrence on the older socks but it does happen occasionally. There is information in the app and online about how to attempt to avoid false red alarms. Overall, this sock functions almost identically to the old Smart Sock 3 just without the O2 sensor that set it apart from competitors. I really hope the sensor is still there and they're able to activate it with a firmware update after FDA approval but at the time of this review, that's not the case so I wouldn't buy this without confirming that. I would recommend the old sock if you can find it somewhere. Or wait until it's available again in the US.

The Owlet Dream Sock is very innovative and comes in handy with a newborn or any infant to bring the parents comfort and ease anxiety. You are able to monitor your baby’s sleep status after downloading and syncing the Owlet Dream App (available in the Apple/Android mobile stores). Both my wife and I are able to have the app on our own phones to monitor the baby as often as we’d like which is very convenient. I love that the baby’s every movement, oxygen level, and heartbeat are available at the touch of the app. The personalized Sleep Coaching feature adapts to your baby’s sleep habits as they get older and over time improves their quality/length of sleep. The fabric sock fits babies 0-18 months that weigh anywhere between 5-30 lbs. The sock can be used both for naps and for bedtime and has a range of 100 feet (no more than a room or 2 away from the base). It fits underneath footie pajamas or even regular socks and doesn’t take up much space. Even if the baby moves around throughout the night, the sock will continue to monitor their sleep. If it becomes displaced for any reason and isn’t able to continue monitoring, a displacement alarm will sound from the device. The Base Station provides a full charge (16 hours) within 90 minutes and a rapid charge (8 hours) in 20 minutes. The Sleep Assist Prompt is a wonderful touch – it will play music and glow the soothing color of lavender when your baby is having trouble sleeping. This device has been a huge comfort to both myself and my wife, and gives us a peace of mind at bedtime. It’s reassuring to easily open the app to check on your newborn’s sleeping during the night and allows us to sleep better because of it.

Gave wrong oxygen levels wasn’t consistent with medical reader.

When it comes to buying baby products a lot of them seem to predominantly offer parents peace of mind to which this is exactly what the Owlet Dream Sock does. Upon venturing into all the various baby products this was one item I knew I wanted as I had been told numerous times from other first time parents that their babies were completely motionless when they slept, but they didn`t dare risk waking them up. The Owlet solves this problem perfectly! Upon opening the sock it is apparent that Owlet had quality in mind. The material of the sock seemed very comforting and our baby didn`t have any issues. The inclusion of four separate socks (left and right along with 2 sizes) was a nice added feature to ensure the widest range of uses. The small base station was nice and the wireless charging is a great feature! Getting into the actual use of the sock though is where it really shines. The sock tracked nearly every aspect of our baby`s sleep that you could ask for to which I will say that it no longer does track blood oxygen level, but I think for the vast majority this should not be a deterrent to purchasing the product in the slightest as the amount of other sleeping measurements was immense! The ability to track heart rate, movement, and times woken up is not where it ends though as it is not just a tracking product, but also a learning product as it took our child`s sleep data and showed how it could be improved along with setting up a sleep program and then even providing weekly parenting tips. Some of the best functions of this sock that go unnoticed are the ease of use, fit of the sock, and the long battery life. Upon opening the product it was up and running in less than five minutes and my wife and I were even able to use it that night. The fit has been great and we have not had any issues with it falling off in the slightest. Then the battery life is exceptional as it seems to last for naps and through the nights without issue. Overall, I can`t recommend this product enough for both peace of mind while your child is sleeping and also to help improve your child`s overall sleep with the various programs and tips. If you`re looking specifically for a high tech mini apple watch that is going to record every body metric then this may not be for you, but if you are looking for peace of mind and better sleep for both yourself and your child then this product is a must!!
