The owlet sock is brilliant. Gives piece of mind whilst baby is sleeping that we will be alerted if there are pulse or oxygen changes that are abnormal. It doesn’t seem to give off false alarms and the app is easy to use. I would definitely recommend this over the monitoring systems that fit into the nappy.
The camera is a bit hit and miss. If you happen to have signal issues, it won’t connect which is a concern. I think I prefer the old fashioned baby video Monitors that don’t rely on broadband.

This product is good and probably more ideal for parents who feel they need reassurance when their little one is sleeping due to its technology. The camera itself was easy to set up and so was the baby monitor on my phone. On the app there is a zoom function which is handy, but then you get less quality of resolution. It would be perfect if this came with a separate monitor, as using the mobile app can be annoying when you have low battery, keeps locking or want to use the phone whilst baby is asleep. Fitting the sock is simple and easy and it has been staying in place. The sock brings comfort, knowing that our child is safe at night. All the information obtained about sleep patterns, baby movements and temperature is accessed on the app which is handy. The only con would be if you do not have a good internet connection, as this monitor runs off WIFI and I can imagine it lagging if there is a poor connection, although I did not have this issue.
