Sleep Tracker MAC Address
The Sleepme app utilizes the Sleep tracker’s MAC address for device identification during the onboarding process. This MAC address is visible during the Bluetooth pairing process in the format [Tracker name]-[MAC Address].
The Sleep Tracker’s MAC address is only publicly visible for a brief period while you are connecting the device to your mobile phone via Bluetooth. For an individual to view your MAC address, they must be within range of your control unit during the pairing or re-pairing process.
Once your Sleep Tracker is successfully connected to the internet, the Bluetooth name is no longer visible on your mobile device or discoverable through additional Bluetooth pairing attempts.
If someone were to obtain your Sleep Tracker’s MAC address, they would not be able to access your local Wi-Fi network or connect to your home Wi-Fi. They would also not be able to view your sleep data.
