Moonbird’s wake & shake feature lets you use it without your phone — ideal when you’re in bed or want a calm moment without screens.
Here’s how it works:
Shake your moonbird gently to wake it up. A green LED near the sensor will light up.
Want to start a connected session in the app? Don’t place your thumb on the sensor yet.
Want to start a standalone session? Place your thumb on the sensor — your moonbird will begin the saved breathing exercise.
To set or change your standalone exercise:
Open the app
Connect your moonbird
Go to the “Breathe” tab
Choose your preferred exercise and duration
Check box "default exercise"
It will be saved directly to your device
Important:
If wake & shake doesn’t seem to work, check whether travel mode is turned on in the app. In that mode, moonbird only activates when it detects a real heartbeat. Switch it off to restore normal sensitivity.
If moonbird is still connected to the app, standalone mode won’t start. In that case, close the app completely and wait about 30 seconds before trying again.
