7.2 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 remotel
See real-time readings for Pulse Rate & SpO
Receive alarm
See and modify alarm threshold
Requirements: Any Apple mobile device with iOS 14 or greater. Not
compatible with smart watches.
WARNING!
Always keep the Base Station in audible range. 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.
