Quiet alerts when you're already at the baby
When you get up to tend to your little one, you don't need your watch buzzing about the same cry. Proximity suppression senses when you're near the hub and quiets your follow-up alerts — so you're not double-woken while you're already there.
Where: the setting
Settings › Proximity Detection
It's on by default. Here's what you're looking at:
- Proximity Detection — leave this on (the default). Turn it off if you'd rather receive every follow-up alert, even while you're with the baby.
- Detection range — drag the slider to set how close to the hub counts as "at the baby," from 3 ft to 25 ft. A smaller range is more accurate; a larger range is more forgiving.
- Detection Range — this line confirms your current setting (15 ft by default). Changes apply immediately — there's nothing to save.
On your watch: the proximity ring
During a cry, a colored ring appears on your watch, telling you whether you're close enough for Dozzi to quiet your follow-up buzzes.
Good to know
• Proximity only quiets follow-up buzzes — the first alert for a new cry always comes through.
• It works across caregivers: if your partner is the one at the baby, your buzzes can be quieted too.
• Turning your own proximity off means you'll still be told when a partner is present — it just stops your watch from reporting your position.
