Eight Sleep's Autopilot is a fantastic feature that automatically adjusts your Pod's temperature throughout the night for optimal comfort. Do you prefer a little more control or want to experiment with manual settings? Here's how to easily fine-tune your Autopilot experience:

  

Turning Autopilot On and Off:

While Autopilot is automatically enabled for members, you can quickly turn it off or on any time.

*   Navigate to the Control page
    
*   Click the ">" button for the Pod Temperature panel
    
*   Click  "Sleep stages response" to turn the Temperature Autopilot on and off.
    
*   Click "Ambient response" to turn the Ambient temperature response on and off. 
    
*   In the "Elevation" panel, tap the toggle switch next to "Snoring Autopilot" to turn Snoring Autopilot on and off. 
    

  

Understanding the Impact:

*   When Autopilot is off, your Pod will maintain the temperature you set at bedtime.
    
*   This means it won't make those subtle adjustments based on factors like room temperature changes, weather patterns, or your sleep biometrics.
    

  

Remember: Even with Autopilot off, you can manually adjust the temperature throughout the night for maximum comfort.
