Beautyrest Sleeptracker Monitor – Wearable-Free Sleep Tracker – Intuitive App and Alexa Enabled

tl;dr - THIS REQUIRES A 2.4 GHZ WIRELESS NETWORK! That info sadly is not obvious on the product listing but is important to check before purchasing. We are using this with a 14" thick Serta iComfort foam mattress so I think it it can detect through that it could work on anything. I really think this is close to a 4-4.5 star but gave it a 5 to offset some of the truly stupid 1-star reviews. Now for the detail... So my wife and I briefly had a Sleep Number bed with their tracking app and while not perfect I grew to like it. Ended up not liking the bed so much so it is being returned but I was really craving that data so I found this thing after seeing a number of other devices that seemed to range from $300-700 for 2 sleepers whereas this guy is under $100 and looked to give me even more than the Sleep IQ did. That is why I bought it and so far it's been pretty great, but the Sleep IQ did work with my Nest and could lower and raise my thermostat which this cannot currently do however it does support basic Alexa integration so maybe one day. Anyhow, the whole thing took about 30 minutes to set up. One thing to be aware of is that the processor box does not work with 5 GHz wireless networks. I'm sure this saved them a few bucks, but I also bet that is what 99% of the complaints in this review are about because it isn't clearly noted on the product page and even then a lot of people may not understand the technicalities of their router especially if it is ISP provided. The setup process was pretty painless but I did hit a snag during setup where the processor was having trouble connecting to my WiFi network. I solved it by unplugging/re-plugging the processor and relaunching the app after which it connected no problem. Yes you have to create a special account (no FB/Google linking) but it's really no big deal. If you want to add a second sleeper you generate a link from within the app and it sends them an email. My wife had no problem with this. Unlike the Sleep Number, I can not see my Wife's data and she can't see mine. I'm not sure I care one way or another but just FYI. Also, yes there is an optional $30/year "premium" tier for the app but it seems completely superfluous. The big selling point is unlimited data storage for long-term (greater than 1y) analysis and some sleep coaching stuff. The first night's report doesn't come out until "18 hours after initial setup" which seems oddly specific and a bit strange but we did get our report and I loved it. It gives me everything I had with Sleep IQ except with more detail AND crucially, it explains the various readings, what is normal, and what factors affect your overall score which the other system didn't do. My wife tried to use the wake up alarm and it did not go off the first night for some reason so that may be something to watch out for but it may have also been because it was the first night. All in all, this seems like a really great product, especially for $100 which covers 2 people. Contrary to what others have said I found the App very well designed and helpful, down to them explaining exactly why they need certain permissions on my phone. I certainly wouldn't sub this out for any medical grade device if you need it for health reasons but if you're just trying to track you sleep vitals for fun or self improvement then this is a great thing. Hopefully they add even more features via software but honestly I already feel like I got my money's worth!

This product comes with an app. I made the mistake of setting up the sleep tracker using the paper manual when the app teaches you step by step. Although I was able to do it with the manual easily, the app was much thorough and intuitive. Setup overall was easy. There is initial setup for both my partner and I in regards to our sleep goals and duration but after initial setup, the tracker just track our sleep even without us telling it manually we’re going to bed. My partner likes to use the manual mode but for me, I just like to go straight to bed and let it to the rest. Otherwise, I wake up, leave the bed or tell the app I’m awake and my report is generated on the app and I get one sent to my email. This is by far the best product I’ve purchased in a while. There’s even a sleep coach that guides you on your sleep pattern and “coaches” you how to improve and achieve your goals. Did I mention there’s no subscription based services, I mean there is but as a stand-alone product, it gives you everything I mentioned above. You can use the subscription but I believe that the product itself sold me already. Fantastic! For one product I’m happy it can track sleep for you compared to other sleep trackers on the market

The sleep monitor wasn't able to sense when I woke up through the night so I couldn't quite trust it's other readings.

There's no sense in buying this product because you won't be able to get any support or readings from the unit. I bought this in 2023 it was working now when we had to disconnect for a new mattress the app is not supported meaning you won't get any results. Was great while at worked but in 2024 forget it. You will waste your money.

I have used this for about a week. I have a sleep disorder and not full blown apnea but drops in O2 levels. With an O2 monitor and this I have been exploring improved sleep, It is not medical data, but it is some data that gives you consistent feedback relative to day to day changes. So I have been experimenting. My Dr had recommended going back on CPAP, which I resisted, but seeing the over 4% drops in 02 Monitor. I finally did. stabilized with no drops of any kind during night. Oddly enough, before that I observed that a certain sleep aid caused excessive drops, so stopped that, and voila, improvement, Final stabilization came with CPAP and the Right mask. the beauty rest is additional info with pieces to the sleep puzzle, that I will work with Dr. to review. Seems I need more deep sleep to feel rested. Take sleep medication, so if we adjust I can monitor impacts...and evaluate changes in daily routine relative to how I feel. It is simply a piece of information...with it, you have something..rather than nothing, so I find it useful. and it is consistent. Installation is easy...do have 2.4 WIFI as others have noted. It works fine on a sleep by number adjustable bed. App and software is easy to use...even for this oldster tech dunce...reports and data very detailed and useful You can use manually, or set up to automatically start and end. If set with automatic start and end times, you edit actual sleep begin and end times afterwards if you want. also you can write comments to memo notes to self. Improvements will be coming no doubt, and they do solicit and forward feedback to tech’s...so look forward to enhancements in future. Notes: no live support which would be useful. they do answer questions by email, in a timely way. but it would be better to talk to someone and get follow up questions answered when you have them and clarifications. Surprised an outfit as big as this doesn’t have live support, but maybe there are other reasons...such as not wanting to confuse tech issues with medical issues. In any case, they are available. However, I do want to emphasize the support staff are very responsive and do communicate thoughtfully and courteously. They are very open to suggestions and improving the product. Tip of the hat for that. Also, the app downloads in a fixed orientation and does not rotate with iPad. Since I used a fixed holder with plug at top of screen, it is upside down on home screen and awkward. the graphic report does rotate to horizontal. I put in feedback to tech team so maybe they will make a change in next version. All in all I am VERY happy with results and am recommending it to all my friends. UPDATE: have used for a month and am even more impressed. Consistent information provided, allowing me to monitor changes I make or changes in routine.Want to emphasize how good their support staff are, even though they are by email, they are responsive, thorough and follow up. Couldn’t imagine not having this product. Finally feel like I am making some progress in resolving sleep issues.
