Uses accelerometer and barometer data to automatically classify your movement: walking, squats, stairs, gentle swaying, or idle. No buttons to press.
Toggle baby awake/asleep with a single tap. Sleep phases are recorded with timestamps for a complete picture of your baby's nap patterns in the sling.
Steps, floors climbed, squat count, time in each activity, heart rate, and barometric altitude — all recorded per second to FIT files for detailed analysis.
Scan a QR code from the watch to pair with the companion web app. Your partner sees your babywearing session live — activity state, baby sleep, and more. No app install needed.
Counts squats via accelerometer pattern matching and detects stair climbing via barometric pressure changes. Great for parents who exercise while carrying.
Vibration-only notifications won't wake your sleeping baby. The AMOLED display stays dim until you need it, preserving battery and keeping baby calm.
Press START on your Garmin watch when you put your baby in the sling or carrier. The app begins tracking accelerometer and barometer data immediately.
Go about your day — walking, doing squats, climbing stairs, or gently swaying. The watch automatically classifies your movement in real time.
Tap SELECT when your baby falls asleep or wakes up. Sleep phases are logged with exact timestamps for a complete nap history.
After your session, see total baby sleep time, activity breakdown, steps, floors, and more — on the watch summary and in the companion web app.
Share your babywearing session in real-time with your partner or family. The watch displays a QR code — scan it with a phone to instantly see live data: activity state, baby sleep status, steps, and more. No app install, no account needed for viewing.
