Getting started

Your first monitoring session

Dozzi wakes one parent with a strong, silent buzz on the wrist — and lets the other sleep. Here's how to get set up and start your first session.

Watch: Live & cry alerts (30 sec)
Tap to play

Step 1: Set up your hub

Plug the Dozzi hub in near the baby and wait for the light. In the app:

  1. Set up a new hub — Dozzi walks you through connecting it to your Wi-Fi.
  2. Or Join an existing hub with an invite code, if a partner already set one up (see Caregivers).

Step 2: Get your Apple Watch ready

Your watch is how Dozzi wakes you — a strong, silent buzz on your wrist that won't wake your partner.

On your watch, tap the green Join button
  1. Open the Dozzi app on your watch and keep it on your wrist.
  2. Allow every prompt that appears — Notifications (including Critical Alerts, so Dozzi can wake you through Focus / Do Not Disturb) and Health (Heart Rate, which powers Smart routing).
No Apple Watch? Dozzi can wake you on your phone instead — see Phone-only mode.

Step 3: Start a session

  1. On the Live tab, tap Start.
  2. On your watch, tap Join to connect it to the session.

That's it — Dozzi is now listening for your baby and will send the alert straight to your wrist.

When a cry comes in, your watch shows two buttons — I'm Awake / Fed and Self-Soothe Snooze. See Responding to a cry for what each one does.
