What’s the first thing I do once I download the Fullpower® Sleep app?

After downloading the Fullpower® Sleep app, launch the app and follow the on-screen instructions. The setup instructions in the app will walk you through the process of creating an account, setting up your smart bed, and connecting to your home Wi-Fi.

What is my Program Code?

Your Program Code allows your sleep practitioner to study your sleep results. If you forgot your Program Code, contact your sleep program administrator.

During setup, I’m being asked to scan a QR Code, where do I find it?

To download the correct app, make sure you scan the QR Code on the paper instructional pamphlet that was included with your Fullpower® Sleep installation kit. 

While you are pairing your smart bed to your account during the setup phase, there is a different QR Code to scan. Make sure to scan the QR Code on the processor, which is a curvy rectangular black device with circular vents, approximately the size of a deck of cards. The processor's QR Code will allow you to complete the setup in the app. 

How do I know if my smart bed is set up correctly?

The Fullpower® Sleep app will walk you through the setup procedure. At any time after completing the setup, you can navigate to the “Connection Status” page by going to Menu > My Smart BedStatus to confirm that your smart bed is online, and the sensors are plugged in. 

I am a single sleeper with a large bed and sleep in the middle of the bed. Which side of the bed should I choose when prompted during the setup?

Select the left side in the app and connect your sensor to the black input connector on the processor. Place the sensor under your mattress, centered under the pillow where you spend most of your time sleeping. 

How do I add a second user to the smart bed?

Before adding a second user, please ensure that you have two sensors plugged into the processor.

From the first user's account, select Menu > Add Second User. A 12 digit Quick Add Code will be generated, which you can either write down or share via email or text message.

The second user should install the Fullpower® Sleep app on their phone or tablet. Launch the app on the second user's phone, enter your Program Code (provided by your sleep program administrator), select Join Existing Smart Bed, enter the 12 digit Quick Add Code, and then follow the instructions to finish creating the account for the second user. 

If the second user has already created their own account and is on the Home tab in the app, have the second user go to Menu > Pair Smart Bed > select Add yourself as a second user, and enter the Quick Add Code. Note: If the second user has an Android device and has already created their own account, the second user will need to delete their own account (Menu > My Profile > Account > Delete Account), then follow the instructions in the third paragraph (above) to enter the code and recreate your account.

General

Does the Fullpower® Sleep system work with any mattress brand?

The Fullpower® Sleep system works with any standard innerspring, foam, memory foam or hybrid mattress.

Does the Fullpower® Sleep system store sleep data for both my partner and myself?

Yes, you and your partner will each have unique Fullpower® Sleep accounts that monitor and store sleep data. During the app setup, you will be asked to specify which side of the bed you sleep on, allowing the system to distinguish you from your partner.

What if I have a pet that sleeps on the bed?

Pets at the foot of the bed should not affect your heart rate or respiratory rate data, but if they get up and move during the night, they could affect your sleep data. At Menu > My Smart Bed > Setup > Smart Bed Details, ensure you have “Yes" selected for “Are pets allowed on your smart bed?”

What if I switch sides of the bed?

If you or your partner switches sides of the bed, simply update this information in the app from the Menu under My Smart Bed > Setup > Switch Sides.

What if I switch to a new phone or tablet?

If you get a new device, you won’t lose any of your data. Simply download the app on your new device and sign-in to your existing account.

Do I have to wear a specific device to bed?

No, you don't have to wear a device. Your sleep is monitored through the sensors which are under your mattress.

What if my power goes out briefly overnight?

The system will not record data during a power outage. Once power is restored, it will automatically resume recording your sleep data. The Sleep Cycle Alarm, however, will still activate via your phone or tablet at the proper time if there is a power outage.

What if my partner and I only have one phone or tablet for both of us?

Both of your accounts can be accessed from the same device, however, to prevent having to log out and log back in, it’s best for each user to have the app running on their own phone or tablet. If you choose to use a single phone or tablet for both users, the Fullpower® Sleep app will display the data of whichever user is logged in. To see data associated with another account, log out of the current account by going to Menu > My Profile > Account > Log Out and then log in to the other account.

What if I don’t have internet?

The processor requires access to an internet-enabled home Wi-Fi network. A mobile hotspot would work, too. 

Does my phone or tablet need to be on overnight?

No, the system will still monitor your sleep if your phone or tablet is off, but the Sleep Cycle Alarm will not work with your phone or tablet off.

Does my phone or tablet need to be in the same room as me to monitor my sleep?
No, your device does not need to be in your room to record your sleep, however, you do need your device nearby to hear the alarm.
Does my phone or tablet need to be connected to my Wi-Fi network overnight?
No, your device does not need to be connected to Wi-Fi overnight, but will need Wi-Fi or a cellular connection to use the Sleep Cycle Alarm.
How can I restore my Fullpower® Sleep information on my phone or tablet after a factory reset (or onto a new device)?

To restore your data, re-download the Fullpower® Sleep app, launch the app, enter the Program Code provided to you by your sleep program administrator, and then log in to your existing account. All of your data will be present.

Can the Fullpower® Sleep system distinguish between when someone is reading or watching television in bed vs. trying to fall asleep?

Yes, the Fullpower® Sleep AI Engine can differentiate between when a user is awake in bed and when they are actually entering early stages of sleep. To do so, the system uses machine learning algorithms that take into account the breathing rate, heart rate, and micro motion sensed by the Fullpower® Sleep system.

Can I temporarily disable sleep recordings to let someone else sleep in my bed?

If someone else will be using your bed, and you wish to turn off the Fullpower® Sleep system, the smart bed's processor will need to be unplugged from the power outlet. While unplugged from power, the smart bed will not record, retain, or upload any sensor data. This includes sleep quality, heart rate, breath rate and air quality. To resume normal functionality, simply power on the smart bed by plugging it in to the USB power adapter, and the smart bed will take a couple of minutes to automatically reconnect to your home's Wi-Fi network. 

Setup

Where do I place the sensors?

The Fullpower® Sleep app will guide you through the correct placement of the sensors based on the bed type that you have. In general, one sensor should be placed underneath the mattress, on top of the foundation, centered directly underneath the pillow of each sleeper. 

My bed frame has slats which prevent the sensors from being placed under the mattress directly under the center of the pillow. Where should the sensors be placed?

If you have a slatted bed frame, place the sensor(s) on top of the slat nearest the center of your pillow. Ensure the sensor foam lies entirely on a slat, not half on and half off.

How do I install the sensor(s) if there are slats narrower than my sensor(s) for the foundation that my mattress rests on?

If your mattress sits on a slatted foundation, metal grid, or mesh, ensure the sensor is positioned on a solid/flat surface so the sensor is pushed evenly into the mattress when you lie down. The sensor needs to make firm, evenly distributed contact with the mattress to function properly.

If the openings in your foundation are larger than the sensor, use a thin piece of plywood or plexiglass that spans the holes to ensure the entire sensor makes contact with the mattress.

Where should I place the processor?

Ensure your processor is elevated off the floor. We recommend re-using one of the cable twist ties to hang the processor under your bed. There are environmental sensors in the processor which provide the most accurate readings when the vents on the processor are not blocked.

I have an adjustable bed. Is the Fullpower® Sleep system compatible?

Yes, the Fullpower® Sleep system works with any bed. On adjustable beds, ensure that there is plenty of slack in the sensor cables, so your bed can be adjusted fully without straining the sensor cables. Additionally, make sure you route the sensor cables properly, so the cables do not get pinched when the adjustable base is raised or lowered. 

I use a bed skirt between my box spring and mattress. Should the sensors be placed on top of or underneath the bed skirt?
Attach the sensors under the bed skirt. The sensors will move around less and this allows you to wash the bed skirt without removing the sensors.

Wi-Fi Connection

What if my smart bed fails to connect to my Wi-Fi network?

Check to ensure your Wi-Fi router and smart bed are close enough to each other for a good signal. Walls and other devices on the 2.4GHz or 5GHz frequency range can interfere or reduce the signal strength. If the Wi-Fi router cannot be moved closer to the bedroom, a Wi-Fi range extender or mesh Wi-Fi system may be suitable options.

What type of Wi-Fi works best with the smart bed?

The smart bed requires a Wi-Fi router running on the 2.4GHz or 5GHz band. The smart bed supports WPA, WPA2 and WPA3 security. The WEP security protocol is no longer supported due to its security vulnerabilities.

Does my router need to be connected to the Internet?

Yes, in order to transmit your sleep data to your account, your smart bed will need to be connected to the internet through your Wi-Fi router.

How do I update my smart bed's Wi-Fi settings if I've changed the password or name of my home Wi-Fi network?

To adjust the Wi-Fi settings of your smart bed, go to Menu > My Smart Bed > Troubleshoot & Wi-Fi > Adjust Wi-Fi Settings, and then follow the on-screen instructions. If you need assistance, email support@sleeptracker.com and include your router’s brand and model.

Does the smart bed use Bluetooth?

The smart bed uses Bluetooth during the initial setup, but relies on Wi-Fi to communicate with the Cloud.

Are there Wi-Fi routers which are not compatible?

There are some combination modem-routers (gateways) which have trouble maintaining a consistent internet connection. These models affect all Wi-Fi devices, not only the smart bed. Many of these are cable modem gateways leased or rented by cable companies, and there are often alternative cable modem gateways available from your cable company if you request an alternate model.

Using the App

What is the Sleep Cycle Alarm?
The Sleep Cycle Alarm wakes you during your lightest phase of sleep in a given window of time, allowing you to feel more refreshed throughout the day. For example, if you need to wake up at 7AM and you set a 30-minute Sleep Cycle Alarm window, the alarm will wake you between 6:30AM and 7AM when the system detects you are in a light phase of sleep, or it will wake you no later than 7AM if the system does not detect a light phase of sleep.
How do I select an alarm tone for the Sleep Cycle Alarm?

In the app, select the Menu button, then select Sleep Cycle Alarm. You can select from built in wake up music or from your own music library.

Can I use the app for napping?

Yes, the app can record naps longer than 20 minutes. Go to Menu > Record Sleep > select Record My Sleep Now to begin a sleep recording. After you’re done napping, ensure that you return to the app and tap Done Sleeping, to end the recording.

What is the AI Sleep Coach?
The AI Sleep Coach provides useful tips and insights to help you incrementally improve your sleep over time. These tips and insights become more personalized and tailored to you as you use the app over time. For example, the app will learn what time you typically go to bed, how fast you fall asleep, and how much sleep you typically get. The AI Sleep Coach can then notify you when you deviate from your routine to help guide you to a more restful night’s sleep.

If I forget to start my sleep recording but slept on my smart bed, can I retroactively add a sleep?

Yes, open the app and go to the Sleep tab. Navigate to a date that doesn't have a sleep recording, then select the plus symbol. Enter the time you got into bed and the time you woke up, and the system will recover your sleep from the data it captured on that night. Sleep recovery can be performed up to 2 days in the past.

Can I edit or delete a sleep recording?

Yes. View the sleep recording you would like to edit or delete. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and select Edit or Delete Sleep Recording. Choose from either Edit or Delete options. If Edit is selected, you will be able to make adjustments to your Bedtime and Rise time by toggling the tabs at the top. Once your desired changes are made, select Save.

Can I share my sleep information with others?

Currently, there is no option to share your sleep results with other users, however, your sleep practitioner has a dashboard that allows them to securely review your sleep information.

How long does it take to get an accurate heart rate and breathing rate?
An accurate measurement of heart rate and respiration rate can take anywhere from 30-45 seconds while lying still on the bed.
How does the smart bed detect my heart rate?

The smart bed detects the micro-motion generated from your heartbeat and respiration cycles with highly-precise sensors placed under your mattress.

What impacts my heart rate?
Everyone’s heart rate is different. There are many factors that can affect it, including stress, fitness level, and diet.
What is resting heart rate?
Your resting heart rate is how many times per minute your heart beats while you are at rest. Resting heart rate is an indicator of your basic fitness level and a strong predictor of cardiovascular health. A healthy adult range is between 60 and 80 bpm, while athletes can have a resting heart rate as low as 30 bpm.
How do I improve my sleep quality?

The system is designed to help you determine how you sleep best. The AI Sleep Coach will give you tips created specifically to help you sleep better and improve your sleep quality metric.

What is the difference between light, deep, and REM sleep?

Light and REM sleep are considered to be closer to wakefulness than deep sleep. Deep sleep is characterized by a lack of prominent eye movement, a lack of bodily movement and decreased cerebral blood flow, with associated changes in heart rate and respiration rate. The system differentiates between these sleep phases by monitoring movement, heart rate, and respiration rate.

How does the AI Sleep Coach develop coaching recommendations?

The AI Sleep Coach analyzes your personal sleep data to develop unique coaching recommendations personalized just for you.

How is my sleep efficiency calculated?
Your sleep efficiency is calculated by measuring how much time you spend asleep vs. the overall time you spend in bed during the sleep recording.
