BabySat: Setting up the App

The Owlet Care+ App communicates with the Base Station using your home Wi-Fi network. The App displays readings, status messages and alarm information and is a vital part of BabySat. The mobile device should always be on and within arm’s reach of the Caregiver while monitoring the baby. 

The Owlet Care+ App allows you to:

  • Control the Base Station remotely
  • See real-time readings for Pulse Rate & SpO2
  • Receive alarms
  • See and modify alarm thresholds

Requirements: Any Apple mobile device with iOS 14 or greater. Not compatible with smart watches.

Use the Base Station as your source for alarms and check on the baby first.  DO NOT rely on mobile device for alarms. The Owlet Care+ App will ONLY alarm when open and the mobile device is unlocked and connected to the same Wi-Fi as the Base Station. If the App is closed, it may take additional time to receive and display Push Notifications.
