Frequently Asked Questions for Pico 2

Is my smartphone compatible with the Snuza Connect app?

To use the Snuza Connect app, your smartphone must meet the following minimum requirements:


* Bluetooth® 4.0 or later

*Apple devices: iOS 13.0 or later

*Android devices: Android 6.0 or later


Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone before attempting to connect to your Pico 2.


If you're unsure whether your smartphone supports Bluetooth 4.0 or later, refer to your device manufacturer's specifications.

How do I keep my Snuza Connect app running in the background?

The most common reason the Snuza Connect app stops running in the background is your smartphone's battery or power-saving settings. Some smartphones automatically restrict background activity to conserve battery life, which may affect app notifications.


To help ensure you receive notifications:


  1. Allow the Snuza Connect app to run in the background.
  2. Disable battery optimisation or power-saving restrictions for the Snuza Connect app.
  3. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled and your smartphone remains within Bluetooth range of the Pico 2.
  4. Refer to your smartphone manufacturer's instructions for managing background app settings.


If you continue to experience issues after checking these settings, please contact support@snuza.com for further assistance.

Can I replace my Pico 2's battery?

No. The Pico 2 has a built-in rechargeable battery that cannot be replaced. Recharge the battery using the supplied charging cradle.

Why is my Pico 2 not detecting my child's movement activity?

If the Bluetooth Indicator Light is flashing pink, your Pico 2 is in Pause mode and movement activity will not be monitored. Ensure that:


  1. The clip is fully closed.
  2. The Pico 2 is not paused in the Snuza Connect app.
  3. The Pico 2 is attached securely to a snug-fitting diaper (nappy) with the sensor in contact with your child's tummy.


If the issue persists, perform a hard reset by opening the clip and pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds. If movement activity is still not detected, please contact support@snuza.com for further assistance.

I can't register my Pico 2. What should I do?

A Pico 2 can only be registered to one Snuza account at a time.


If you purchased your Pico 2 new and are unable to register it, please ensure you have entered the serial number correctly. If the issue persists, contact support@snuza.com and we will be happy to assist you.


If you purchased your Pico 2 second-hand, ask the previous owner to remove the device from their Snuza account. They can do this by signing in to their account at www.snuza.com, selecting the registered Pico 2, and choosing the Deactivate option.

My Pico 2 is giving unexpected movement notifications. What should I do?

First, make sure your Pico 2 is running the latest firmware version.


To check your firmware version:


Android: Open your Pico 2 settings in the Snuza Connect app. The firmware version is displayed below the Pico 2 serial number.

iPhone: Open your Pico 2 settings, tap the "i" icon in the top-right corner, and view the Firmware Version.


If your Pico 2 is up to date, also check that:


1. The Pico 2 is attached securely to a snug-fitting diaper (nappy).

2. The top edge of the diaper (nappy) has been folded over before attaching the Pico 2.

3. The sensor is in contact with your child's tummy.

4. The device is positioned appropriately for your child's preferred sleeping position.

The device is not in Pause mode.


If you continue to receive unexpected movement notifications, please contact support@snuza.com for further assistance.

Can my babysitter or another caregiver connect to my Pico 2?

Yes. You can invite another caregiver as a secondary user through your Snuza account.


1. Sign in to your account at www.snuza.com.

2. Open your Pico 2 dashboard.

3. Select the option to Invite a Secondary User.

4. Enter the caregiver's details and send the invitation.


Once the invitation has been accepted, the secondary user will be able to connect to your Pico 2 using the Snuza Connect app.

Why isn't my Pico 2 skin temperature reading accurate?

When you first attach the Pico 2, the device is typically cooler than your child's skin. It may take 10 to 15 minutes for the sensor to adjust to your child's skin temperature and for the reading to stabilise.


Please note that the Pico 2 measures skin temperature, not body or core temperature. Skin temperature readings may differ from your child's body temperature and should not be used for medical purposes.

My Pico 2 provides a audible notification immediately after I turn it on. What should I do?

First, perform a hard reset:


1. Open the Pico 2 clip.

2. Press and hold the Power button for 10 seconds.

3. Release the button and wait for the indicator lights to stop flashing.

4. Turn the Pico 2 on again.


The hard reset can be performed whether the Pico 2 is switched on or off.


If the issue persists after performing a hard reset, please contact Snuza Support at support@snuza.com for further assistance.

How can I improve the Bluetooth connection between my Pico 2 and smartphone?

The Pico 2 communicates with your smartphone using Bluetooth. To help maintain a reliable connection:


  1. Attach the Pico 2 securely to your child's diaper (nappy) so that it remains in the recommended position.
  2. Keep your smartphone within Bluetooth range of the Pico 2.
  3. Avoid carrying your smartphone in a pocket or bag when possible. Placing it on a nearby non-metallic surface may improve the connection.
  4. Minimise large obstacles, particularly metal objects or reinforced walls, between the Pico 2 and your smartphone.


Wireless devices operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, including some Wi-Fi networks and Bluetooth devices, may affect Bluetooth performance. If your Wi-Fi router supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, using the 5 GHz band for compatible devices may help reduce wireless congestion.


If you continue to experience connection issues, please contact support@snuza.com for further assistance.

I have lost my Snuza Pico 2. Can you help me find it?

If your Pico 2 still has battery power and the Remote ON/OFF feature is enabled, you may be able to connect to it using the Snuza Connect app while it is within Bluetooth range.

Once connected, switch your Pico 2 ON remotely and leave it undisturbed. If no movement activity is detected for approximately 15 seconds, the Pico 2 will provide a vibration notification, followed by an audible notification approximately 5 seconds later. This may help you locate the device.

If you are unable to reconnect, ensure the Pico 2 is within Bluetooth range, has sufficient battery charge, and that the Remote ON/OFF feature is enabled.

My Pico 2 keeps coming off my child's diaper (nappy). What should I do?

Ensure that the top edge of the diaper (nappy) is folded over before attaching the Pico 2. The clip is designed to grip the folded section of the diaper (nappy) for a secure fit.

Also check that:

  • The diaper (nappy) fits snugly around your child's waist.
  • The Pico 2 is clipped fully onto the folded diaper (nappy) with the clip securely closed.
  • The diaper (nappy) is not excessively wet or full, as this may reduce the security of the fit.

Refer to the Quick Start Guide or User Manual for detailed instructions on attaching your Pico 2 correctly.

Why can't I connect two smartphones to my Pico 2 at the same time?

The Pico 2 is designed to connect to one smartphone or tablet at a time via Bluetooth. To connect a different smartphone or tablet, first disconnect the current device before pairing the new one.

If you would like another caregiver to access your Pico 2, you can invite them as a secondary user through your Snuza account.
