You also have the option of reaching out to other owners available at the community forums. They will be more than happy to inform you about their personal experiences. The Hatch Rest Plus is an upgraded version of the original Hatch nightlight sound machine, featuring additional functionalities: The light function is programmable with okay-to-wake and bedtime settings, which provide a visual cue to your child when it’s time to go to bed or wake up in the morning. While the machine will work without the app, functionality is limited, and really – don’t you love the option of using bluetooth to manage all the controls of your child’s nightlight?If you already have a Hatch Rest, you’ve probably found a way to manage without the additional Rest+ bells and whistles. And that is perfectly fine. We don’t always need the newest and shiniest things for our little ones. It can potentially help you manage your sleeping patterns as well, but the results are far better for the Hatch Restore. Effectiveness is a little subjective in this instance. The sounds and lights that work for one baby won’t work for all babies, so you’ll need to play around with the different options that come with either machine to see which is more effective for your child. Having trouble with your device not turning on or staying on? Having trouble getting your device connected? Not to worry! We have included steps below on how you can reset your Hatch device. Moreover, the color pallets are more oriented toward children, and the app controls are pretty limited.

It requires both a Wi-Fi and a Bluetooth connection to operate from your phone, so if your house has spotty Wi-Fi, you may run into some issues. Grows with your child: Rest+ 2nd Gen grows with your child’s needs, providing soft light and white noise for midnight newborn feeding sessions, fun wind down stories for preschoolers that don’t love bedtime, and a Time-to-Rise function for your older child! This device will last you for years, and you’ll get far more out of this sleep alarm as far as basic productivity is concerned.This feature is also especially helpful when toddlers are waking up too early and you really want to reinforce when it’s sleep time. Control the device via a smartphone app, eliminating the need to enter your baby’s room to adjust settings. Hatch was founded by Ann Crady Weiss and her husband Dave Weiss. Ann’s experience as a first-time mother with a baby who struggled to sleep through the night and Dave’s struggle with insomnia set the couple on the path to developing resources that could help people sleep through the night. Another complaint is that the app has premium features available for an additional fee, but this is frustrating for those of us that don’t want to use the premium features. Being up-sold on a subscription after buying an expensive product is never enjoyable. The second generation is only justifiable if you want to leap for an annual subscription or really like the charging base. Most folks that don’t take advantage of the Hatch Sleep Premium plan tend to prefer the 1st generation’s more straightforward user interface

The sound machine has 11 sound options, which is more than the 8 options on the Hatch Mini. But a common complaint with all three Hatch products is that they cannot be used as a speaker to play other sounds or music. The night light has 10 preset options, along with a feature on the app that allows you to change the light any color in the color wheel.You can put a price on a good night’s sleep, and it plays a big part in which product you will choose.
