There is no warning banner in the app to update your phone or the app. So here I am a frustrated parent at 5:00 am and I can’t use the app to control the level of the Snoo because it says it “can’t connect.” It’s completely disruptive to a baby used to sleeping in the Snoo to suddenly have to take them out of it and desperately try to troubleshoot or reset the Snoo in the middle of the night (which is not working for me either). There is nothing wrong with my Wifi network either, so I know it’s an app problem. Ensuring the app is consistently connected and having to reset the connection should be a LAST and RARE resort (and not a way of life during every apple update). It should be the developers top priority as this is critical to parents. Until it is, I cannot recommend this app or the Snoo which is completely dependent on the app for everything except an “on/off” switch. **Developer response:** We're deeply sorry you've had these connectivity issues and we'd like to speak with you directly at 855.424.6323. We understand how frustrating this must be for parents to wrestle in the middle of the night. We'd really like to help improve your experience. Keeping the device and apps updated can be helpful in avoiding bugs. In the meantime, SNOO is fully responsive & operational w/o the App. To start/stop, press the Activity button at the foot of SNOO. To level up, hold the Activity button for 2 secs. ### 2/5 — App is terrible, Snoo is good *2022-12-12, version 2.6.11* The Snoo itself had been great but the app that controls it is terrible. It constantly says it cannot connect to the internet when it’s directly above the router and no other devices in the house have that issue or that the clips aren’t engaged when they very clearly are. Imagine trying to get your baby back to sleep when more than half the time there is an issue with the app!! This app needs some serious work for the price of the Snoo and being the only way to control it. For the price of the Snoo, this app is not a match. I’ve reset it multiple times and redownloaded the app itself multiple times to no avail. Very disappointed in this app overall. Much needed fixes on your end! ### 3/5 — Needs Better Sleep Tracking Feature *2022-10-07, version 2.6.11* The app works great for controlling the snoo and letting you know the level and how long it's been on (basically how long the baby has been asleep). I would like more editing features where I can input my baby's sleep in the past, like if we travel, as right now it won't let me add sleep sessions past the same month. Also, sometimes my baby falls asleep on a "soothing" level but the app doesn't track it as sleep. I would like to be able to edit acutal snoo sleep sessions as well to keep more accurate tracking of how my baby is sleeping. ### 1/5 — Network connectivity issues make this $1,500 the most frustrating device in your home. *2022-10-07, version 2.6.11* All I want to do is connect this Snoo to my home network so I can control how fast this thing moves. But it has been three days of “can’t connect the Snoo to the Network.” This is $1,500 it should not be this frustrating. Especially when the sole purpose of this device is to calm your baby and make your life easier. It is unacceptable for a device this expensive to be this difficult to connect to a network to use its basic features. My coffee machine is more reliable than this. ### 1/5 — Terrible app, great crib though *2022-09-21, version 2.6.11* The snoo itself is awesome, really helps the baby sleep better than other cribs but the app it terrible, doesn’t connect to the network, doesn’t work with brand new router, so buy the crib and don’t even bother downloading the app, total waste of time, even if you do get lucky and it hooks up to your network/Wi-Fi as soon as it disconnects you’re back to square one trying to install the app from scratch. One of the most frustrating devices I’ve ever purchased because this would be an amazing product if they could just get their technology working properly. ### 3/5 — To SNOO it May Concern *2022-08-04, version 2.6.11* Thank you for making this wonderful piece of baby technology. It is truly a leading edge development in baby soothing machinery. I only have one area of questioning. If your goal is to provide parents with peace of mind and more importantly a good nights rest, as well as truly provide a safe soothing place for baby to sleep. Why not give parents the ultimate and independent control of the sounds and movement capabilities within the app? No matter how advanced your technology gets, we will always know our baby best. Please update the app so that I can independently control what sound my baby needs and what movement she prefers for as long as only I know she needs it, instead of locking me into an automatic setting that may or may not actually put her fully to sleep. The issue comes when I get her to the proper setting and she falls asleep. The SNOO does not provide that same level of noise she prefers for a long enough period of time to fully put her to sleep and as soon as it stops, she wakes up. Thank you for your consideration. - Tired dad. ### 3/5 — Good not great *2022-07-16, version 2.6.11* This is not a review of the Snoo bassinet itself; that is great. This is a review of the app, which is good but has lots of room for improvement. The app has one major flaw: it is wildly unpredictable. Opening the app to pause or start the Snoo is a complete gamble as to whether it’ll work. In fact, over the last month, I would say on average I have to open and then force closes the app about 3 times before I can access that feature. This is frustrating when trying to put a baby down. This came to an extra frustrating point last week, when at 3am, we couldn’t get the feature to work at all and it was giving us an error. The baby was fussing and the snoo was shaking and we could not use the app to stop it. This feels like a major technical oversight. Outside of that everything is great. One suggestion would be an easier to digest version of the daily/nightly sleep, and maybe some more data or easier ways to read it. But that’s not really important. ### 5/5 — Best purchase ever! *2022-02-03, version 2.6.11* This was my first baby and I would stay up all night watching him sleep to make sure he was safe. All the information about SIDS got to me and I couldn’t bear that thought in my mind. I would sit by the SNOO and watch him sleep but as the time passed by, it gave me so much peace that he’s safe while sleeping. We bought it and it was the best purchase ever! Even though he isn’t sleeping full nights but the peace that comes with him being in the SNOO is so worth it. I would recommend it to every new parent. If you’re in a doubt about buying it, let me help you with this review - buy it! ### 3/5 — Parents need more control *2022-01-19, version 2.6.11* The developers of this app need to get some humility. They are asking you to trust your baby to an algorithm and a shaking machine and saying “trust us, these settings are right for your baby.” It objectively CAN’T be true that the settings are right for every baby…at best, the algorithm can be right for the average baby. Since the algorithm doesn’t “learn,” it doesn’t even adapt to your baby…and yet still doesn’t allow any sort of customization by the ones who know the baby best (the parents). At the very least, the app needs to allow parents to set a “maximum level” (and no, locking the level is not the same). Ideally, they would allow parents to customize thresholds, shaking intensity, volume, sounds, etc. it would also be nice to allow parents to set routines (e.g. start at level 2 for 5 minutes, then decrease to level 1 and start normal function). Parents know best! This app is supposed to help, not take over! **Developer response:** We truly appreciate all of your feedback and will gladly pass it along to our Product Development team. We are always working to improve our products & services. We understand that every baby is unique. SNOO is designed to provide babies with a safe sleep space. SNOO's soothing features have been tested and are completely safe, even for babies born prematurely. The App allows families to monitor sleep patterns, as well as modify the motion, white noise, and sensitivity. Our Motion Limiter feature may interest you if your baby prefers lower levels of motion. If you'd like some additional support in finding the right settings for your baby to get the best - safe - sleep, please contact our team at customercare@happiestbaby.com. ### 5/5 — Game changer *2022-01-18, version 2.6.11* I don’t know how we would have survived the newborn stage without our Snoo, and the app works perfectly with the hardware. Intuitive design, just the right amount of features and options, and works as expected from day one. The tips it provides for how to care for your baby are very well thought out, perfectly timed, and as valuable as the features of the app and the hardware. The manual sleep tracking entry feature is a great way you can track naps even if your baby is not in the snoo. No annoying pop-ups, upsells or notification/email spam. An excellent app. ## Frequently asked questions about SNOO ### What does the SNOO app do? The SNOO app is a smartphone companion for the SNOO Smart Sleeper bassinet.
