Will the alarm still work if the baby is in an automatic swing? Will the motion of the swing fool it into thinking the baby's breathing?

Based on how sensitive it is I would assume it would not go off while using a swing.

I was told the swing would "fool" it and if you set it in the swing alone it will still blink as if it were on the baby. I have had it go off, however, while my daughter was in the swing. I think it had come loose, but the alarm definitely sounded and the swing was still in motion. I still used it everytime my daughter was in the swing.

The swing won't affect the monitor. The way it's built it will only work if the sensor tip is being pushed out. The sensor sits right on the baby's belly and when they breathe it sets the sensor off. Outside movement can't.

supposedly it will activate if the door knob is turned then the door is pushed but not successfully opened as in a door that is locked. In other words, the alarm senses the jiggle of the door. You'd have to tweek the sensitivity for it to sense the push of the door but not trigger as a false alarm.

Yes, the alarm will stop sounding after 45 seconds. It will be activated again if it experiences further motion.

Not sure. My toddler has turned the swing on and it kept swinging for awhile. Unfortunately I don't have the manual to look up for you. I don't use the timer but I also haven't left it on for hours. May want to try and look up the manual online. Usually you can find most manuals. Sorry I wasn't more help.

I've found that when swaddled it still works. The only issue we've had is if you have the baby with you in the bed, it reads your movement as the babies. Not a problem if you're awake but if you fall asleep be aware it may not alert you if baby stops breathing. We also have had it go off a few times for no apparent reason. But over all it is worth getting.

It's my understanding that the Halo has an added vibration feature. If the monitor doesn't detect movement, it gives a small vibration which is intended to cause your baby to wake a little and move. If no movement is still detected, then the alarm sounds. I personally only used the snuza go, which only has the alarm. Hope that helps!

Yes, the alarm continues to sound until you acknowledge. However, be careful to re-enable the alarm when the temperature is restored.

Unfortunately no. I initially thought it would when I purchased it, but found out once the notification alarms ceased to alert me. That's when I found that the batteries won't keep the settings. I purchased the plug separately figuring there was no sense buying more batteries after batteries when a plug will accomplish the same thing. But it's still disappointing.

It won't work properly if the surface baby is on isn't motionless (ie in car or bouncer). I'm a bit appalled by all the parents that say they are relying upon it in these places. Monitor works via a motion sensor!

When the alarm is activated/deactivated it emits one low pitched "chirp". If the bike is "bumped" or moved off the stand the alarm will emit one warning "chirp" louder than when it is armed/disarmed. If the bike is moved further or longer the alarm will activate and emits a very loud varied tone, the pitch and tone are designed to affect the inner ear and it gives the feeling of being unsteady on your feet. This is probably more of a concern for the baby window.

No, it shouldn't. The snuza is only set off if there is no movement for a length of time; it's not sound sensitive. If your worried about being able to hear it if there are other noises I would say that would depend. It is a pretty loud alarm which you should have no trouble hearing.

Yes. There is an audible alert if you lose connection to the unit in the baby's room, including going out of range.

It'll bounce if you manually move it or the baby is big enough to move it when they kick, but it will not bounce on it's own, but it does vibrate.

Apparently not. The alarm seems to activate only when the temperature is above the set point.

No, the monitor detects movement. It produces a loud signal (the "alarm") after 20 seconds of not detecting any motion. It is literally placed onto the diaper with the sensor on the baby's tummy. Every time the baby breathes, the sensor detects this slight motion of the abdomen. The only thing that can interfere with it would be the movement of something else or the monitor falling off because it was not correctly attached to the diaper (this happened when my baby spent the night at my parents' hpuse and they didn't slip the monitor all the way into place).

You should be fine ..... put the cover on then activate the alarm It work with motion or a jolt to the bike. I have the same alarm on both my bikes.

I've found that clipping it to the back of their pants or diaper so that it is touching their back still allows it to detect their breathing. Plus the alarm isn't muffled by being trapped between their tummy and the mattress. Both of my kids started sleeping on their stomachs the day they learned to roll over, so I moved the alarm and it still worked exactly as needed.
