Staying out is always a fun activity and Wizzu loves to be invited to it!
The Dryly® bedwetting alarm is ideally suited for taking to a sleepover. Depending on your needs, you can use the system in 'online mode' or 'offline mode'. In the 'online mode' you can even grant temporary access to the adult who receives your child so that they receive a message! Also, you can then set an extra discreet alarm sound.
Below we will help you choose the approach that best suits the situation!
Briefly about the offline and online mode
We recommend using the bedwetting alarm in online mode as much as possible because then you can make optimal use of features such as receiving an alarm notification in case of an accident, insight into battery levels and automatic urinary calendar registration.
If the bedwetting alarm receiver can connect to the stored WiFi network, it goes into online mode. The receiver connects via the Internet to the Dryly® bedwetting alarm app. When an accident happens, it sends a notification to the Dryly® app via the Internet and you can support your child.
When the receiver is turned on in an environment where the stored Wi-Fi network cannot be found, the receiver goes into offline mode. In this mode, the receiver is not connected to the Internet or the Dryly® app. If an accident happens, the receiver's alarm will go off and you will not receive a message.
Staying Out
If Wizzu is going away for a sleepover with you, you can set up the system in several ways. It is always important that your child takes the receiver, transmitter, underwear and possibly Wizzu the panda bear with them.
Offline mode
This is the simplest way where you don't have to connect to the Wi-Fi network.
- Make sure the receiver is within three feet of the bed
- Turn on the receiver
- Check that the sound is on (switch all the way to the right)
- Sleep well
The advantage is that you don't have to struggle with wifi passwords. A disadvantage is that the adult is not notified in case of an accident. Nor can you set off the alarm in a more discreet way. You can read more about this at 'online mode'.
Online mode
You can also connect the receiver to the home network of the house where your child is staying. For this, it is important that you let the receiver change wifi networks. If you want, you can invite the adult who will have your child stay over in the Dryly® app. This will give them (temporary) access to your family and they will receive a notification if an accident happens.
This is how you change the recipient's wifi network:
- Go to 'My Wizzu's' in the hamburger menu in the upper left corner
- Select the recipient whose WiFi network you want to remove and press 'Remove'.
- Now you can pair the receiver on the new wifi network by pressing 'Pair'
- At some point you will be prompted to connect to the 'Wizzu wifi network'. This way you can let the receiver know which wifi network and password it should use.
- Note that you turn the receiver off first and then on again. This puts the receiver into 'pairing mode' for a few minutes.
This is how you invite someone (temporarily) into your family:
- Go to 'Settings' in the hamburger menu at the top left.
- Press 'Invite parent'.
- Enter name and email address. If you make the adult 'administrator', they will have access to features like the 'Dashboard'
- The adult will now receive an email with the invitation
- After downloading the Dryly® app (Android or iOS), the adult creates an account
- The adult can now press the invitation to be admitted to the family
- Be sure to set the alarm in your own Dryly® app to silent when your child is out of the house.
- After the sleepover, you can remove the adult's access in 'Settings'.

Stay over with the standard alarm sound
You can use the receiver in the 'standard' way as you do at home. If an accident happens, the receiver's alarm will go off and send a message to the Dryly® app. You can take the Dryly bedwetting alarm with you for peace of mind.
Dryly bedwetting alarm with you with an extra discreet alarm
As you've probably experienced by now, the alarm in the receiver can produce quite a bit of noise. Usually this is fine, but your child may not like it so much when he or she goes to a sleepover in a strange house with friends. If your child is not a deep sleeper, the below can provide just that extra bit of relaxation.
For this way you need an extra device or tablet with internet or wifi connection.
- Install the Dryly® app.
- Then you can log in with an existing (parent) account or you can create your own account for your child
- When creating an account for your child, don't forget to invite him or her to join the family
- Put the receiver on 'silent mode' by setting the switch in the middle
- If an accident happens, the receiver's alarm will not go off, but it will send a message to all active devices in the 'family'. Your child's device will also receive the message and will play the alarm sound
A phone's alarm sound will be a lot less loud than the receiver's alarm sound.
