Sleep

How do I use the sleep timer?

Tap Sleep on the home screen and press Start when your baby falls asleep. Press Stop when they wake. The timer runs in the background, so you can close the app. On supported devices, a Live Activity will show the running timer on your Lock Screen.

Can I log sleep manually without the timer?

Yes. On the sleep screen, tap Manual Entry (or the clock icon). Set the start and end times and save. This is useful for logging sleep after the fact.

How does the sleep quality rating work?

After stopping a sleep timer or saving a manual entry, you can rate the sleep quality as Poor, Fair, Good, or Excellent. This rating helps track patterns over time and is used by the AI assistant to provide better sleep insights.

What is Bloom Spot and how does it predict sleep?

Bloom Spot is Bloomlet's sleep prediction feature. It uses your baby's wake-window patterns to predict the next optimal sleep time, with a confidence level shown for each prediction. You'll get a push notification 15 minutes before the predicted sleep time so you can prepare. See the Bloom Spot page for more details.

Can I see sleep tracking on my Lock Screen?

Yes. When a sleep timer is running, Bloomlet shows a Live Activity on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island (iPhone 14 Pro and later). This displays the elapsed time without needing to open the app. See the Widgets & Live Activities page for setup details.
