Sleep Number Without Wifi: Does It Work?

does sleep number work without wifi

Sleep Number beds can be controlled via the Sleep Number app, which is available on the App Store for iOS devices and the Google Play Store for Android devices. The Sleep Number app requires a Wi-Fi connection to get the bed online and access certain features. However, it is possible to use the Sleep Number app without Wi-Fi by utilising Bluetooth connectivity. While Wi-Fi is necessary for specific functions, such as sleep tracking and Responsive Air technology, adjusting the Sleep Number setting or FlexFit base can be done without an internet connection.

Sleep Number app and smart bed compatibility

The Sleep Number app is compatible with iOS and Android devices. However, it does not work with Kindle or Windows tablets and has inconsistent performance with Motorola devices.

To use the Sleep Number app, you must first connect your smart bed to a power source and assemble it fully. Then, download the app and register your smart bed. You will need to turn on Bluetooth and enable location services on your device. The app will guide you through the process of connecting your smart bed.

To connect your Sleep Number smart bed to Wi-Fi, open the app and log in. Tap "Smart Bed" and then "Settings" in the upper right corner. Select "Connectivity" and "Change Wi-Fi" to update your Wi-Fi network information. The app will scan for your Wi-Fi network, and you will need to enter your password. Ensure that your router is within 40 feet of your bed and that your internet service is connected.

If you are having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi, you can try force-closing and reopening the app. You can also try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. If you are still experiencing issues, check that your bed is plugged into a working outlet and that your phone or tablet is compatible with Sleep Number smart beds. Make sure the app is updated to the latest version.

It is important to note that your Sleep Number smart bed requires a strong Wi-Fi connection near the bed for optimal performance. While it is possible to use the Sleep Number app without Wi-Fi, certain features of your smart bed may not be available or may not work properly.

Connecting to Wi-Fi

Connecting your Sleep Number bed to Wi-Fi is necessary if you want your bed to track your sleep or use Responsive Air technology. To connect your Sleep Number bed to Wi-Fi, you will need to download the Sleep Number app, which is available on the App Store for iOS devices and the Google Play Store for Android devices. You will also need to register your Sleep Number smart bed account. Ensure that your bed is fully assembled, connected to a power source, and that no one is on the bed during the pairing process.

  • Open the Sleep Number app and log in.
  • Tap "Smart Bed" and then the "Settings" icon (usually in the upper right corner).
  • Open "Bed Settings".
  • Your app will indicate if your bed needs to be paired, is online, or offline.
  • If your bed is offline, make sure you are close to your bed and select "Connectivity".
  • If "Connectivity" will not open, uninstall and reinstall the app.
  • Press and hold the Sleep Number app icon on the home screen to uninstall.
  • Download the Sleep Number app from the App Store or Google Play.

Note that if your Wi-Fi network password contains special characters, you may have trouble getting your Sleep Number bed online. In this case, it is recommended to change your password. Wi-Fi passwords are case-sensitive, and if your Wi-Fi network name contains an apostrophe ('), it may cause a connection issue. In this case, it is recommended to change the network name on the Wi-Fi router to exclude this character.

Troubleshooting connection issues

If you are having trouble connecting your Sleep Number bed to Wi-Fi, there are several troubleshooting steps you can take. Firstly, make sure that your bed is fully assembled and connected to a power source. Check that your router is within 40 feet of your bed and that your internet service is connected.

Next, you should attempt to pair your device with your smart bed via Bluetooth. To do this, make sure you are within 8 feet of your bed, then open the Sleep Number app and log in. Tap "Smart Bed" and then the "Settings" icon in the upper right corner. If you have a Sleep Number® c1, iLE, pSE, or 360 smart bed, you will need to refer to the "Troubleshooting my FlexFit Adjustable Base" instructions. For other smart beds, go to "Bed Settings" in the top right corner. If your bed is offline, select Connectivity and Change Wi-Fi to update your Wi-Fi network information. The app will scan for your Wi-Fi network, and when prompted, select your network and enter your password.

If you are still having issues, try running the Quick System Test in the Sleep Number app to determine the issue and provide troubleshooting steps. If your bed is not paired with your device via Bluetooth, you will need to establish a Bluetooth connection first. Go to "Smart Bed" > "Connectivity" > "Bluetooth Devices" > "Pair My Smart Device". Follow the steps to view Bluetooth devices and pair your device with your smart bed.

If you are experiencing frequent app errors or remote connectivity errors, your bed may need a software update. Getting your bed online will allow it to download a software update, which usually takes around 10 minutes.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, you can contact Sleep Number for further assistance.
