FAQs
What does SNOOZ sound like?
SNOOZ sounds like a fan. On the one end of the spectrum, SNOOZ produces a light fan sound (that you might hear from an oscillating stand fan), on the other end, SNOOZ produces a deep fan sound (that you might associate with an airplane cabin). You ca
Why not just use a fan?
SNOOZ was designed to generate the best possible fan sound for sleeping. Part of that means that its tone and volume are adjustable. Also, unlike a fan, SNOOZ is travel friendly, doesn’t blow unwanted cold air (in the winter, for instance), uses a fr
Why not just use an app?
Smartphone apps may be convenient, but phone speakers are incapable of producing full-spectrum, natural sound like SNOOZ. Think about playing music – phone speakers are great in a pinch but, if you’re going to spend time listening to music, you’re go

Does SNOOZ blow air around the room?
Nope!. SNOOZ is designed to convert nearly all the energy of the fan into generating sound, and not moving air around a room. For this reason, at an equal sound decibel level, SNOOZ uses about 98% less energy than a typical room fan. As a result, you
Does SNOOZ ever need to be opened and cleaned?
Nope! SNOOZ is engineered so the energy goes into producing sound and not moving air, so the inflow and outflow are close to zero. As a result of this design, dust, pet hair, and anything else are not filtered through the device like a common fan. De
Do the lights stay on? Are there any indicator lights?

The cord to the power adapter is 6 feet in length.
Does it accept worldwide voltage?
SNOOZ accepts worldwide voltage (100-240V and 50-60 Hz). You may need a plug adapter to plug it in, but it should work (without the need of a power converter) anywhere in the world.
Do you ship internationally?
SNOOZ is currently available for export on the Amazon U.S. website, here. To be sure, SNOOZ uses a Type A (U.S. plug) so a plug adapter would be needed, but no voltage converter is needed as SNOOZ's power adapter is internationally compatible (100-24
Can I take SNOOZ camping?

Can it work with connected home products (e.g. Google Assistant, IFTTT)?
Unfortunately, we do not have a way to make SNOOZ work with connected home solutions (e.g. Alexa, Google Assistant, IFTTT) at this time. We're looking at connected home solutions on our long-term road map!
Can the BTLE chip be turned off?
Unfortunately, we don't have a way to cut power to the BT module. In the future, we will potentially have a unit that will not be BT equipped. Here is more detailed information regarding the Bluetooth chip in our devices:.
Will it help with my partner's snoring, loud neighbors, or other outside noises?
To be honest, it's probably 50/50 on whether or not it would help this application. We believe it will lessen the impact but will likely not filter it out completely. It helps reduce the "sharpness" or "startle" of a dog barking next door, for instan
