Sleep data and tracking issues

Just to start, I have absolutely loved this device up until today. I have been using this since the day my baby was born and had zero issues. Out of the blue, the app stopped displaying sleep data for each nap/sleep session and doesn’t show anything in the history tab. I have tried EVERYTHING! Resetting the base station, unplugging the base station, cleaning the sock monitor itself, restarting my phone, logging off and back into the app, and nothing has worked. The app still shows live readings but I have absolutely no way to track my baby’s sleep. There is no update available and my phone is updated to the latest IOS version. This is ridiculous as we rely HEAVILY on this for sleep tracking. For how expensive this product is you would think any bugs or glitches in the app would be fixed immediately ESPECIALLY with this being considered a medical item. Also for the icing on the cake, owlet doesn’t have live support on the weekends so I’ve been on my own since end of day Friday when this started. Below are pictures of what I’m talking about. As you can see, the session length so far is 6h and 21m. The live health readings are fine (THANKFULLY), but when you go to the history tab there is NOTHING! I’ve been having to watch the app like a hawk in order to input my baby’s sleep manually. Owlet needs to fix this immediately. And if they can’t, I expect to be compensated as it is not doing what it is marketed to do.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I got this as a gift, and thank goodness I did. I would be so disappointed if I had bought this myself. Don't get me wrong, it has some good features. I like how it can evaluate sleep status, which was somewhat helpful in distinguishing those nighttime newborn grunts. However the non-essential beeping notifications are useless, and just wake up my baby. There's no way to control them or the volume, and nine times out of ten it's being triggered by me trying to soothe my baby. So you can imagine how frustrating it is to just barely have your baby drifting to sleep, just to have this beep at you and ruin your progress. In the end, I only used this for about a month before it wasn't worth it anymore. It's not worth my jeopardizing baby's sleep.

The owlet was super great, worked perfect for 3 months no issues then randomly one night in the middle of the night stopped working. The WiFi won’t even pop up as an option to connect to. I troubleshoot everything form the base to the sock to deleting and readding but it will not work. The owlet Wi-Fi continually won’t even pop up to connect to

I love this! I have anxiety and this helped so much! I could relax a little bit more knowing my baby was being monitored through the night or any sleep
I absolutely love our owlet! I don’t think I would get any sleep if we didn’t have it. It really puts your mind at ease! I would definitely recommend the owlet to anyone and everyone who has a little one!
The owlet sock is really helpful at easing your mind by letting you see the heart rate and oxygen levels and it should alert you if those numbers drop too low. I also like how you can see the sleep patterns. The things I don’t like or that drive me crazy are if your baby is really small or their foot is really skinny the socks don’t stay on well and gives false alerts. I also don’t like how the app takes forever to read when placing the sock on and at least every other time we put the sock on it gives “sock placement error” and the Bluetooth range isn’t that great.
