Your Elemind headband is designed to give you full functionality of all the headband functions, as well as being the place for you to check your sleep data. The screen is organized in three sections:
- The top Status Bar.
- The Main Screen.
- The bottom Navigation Bar.
The bottom navigation bar has three options:
- Home: to start a new Sleep Session
- Data: to review all of your sleep data
- Settings: a multi-functional section to set your preferences, check your account, update your user profile, pair/unpair your headband, and connect to Elemind Technical Support.
We’ll start by describing the bottom navigation bar.
Home
Use the Home screen to start a new Sleep Session.
Additionally, you can change the volume level of the bone conduction speaker and select your preferred background audio scenes by tapping on the Sound Settings button.
You can also tap on the Daily Factors button to enter information about your day to track whether your daily activities have had an impact on your sleep.
Data
When you end a Sleep Session, your Elemind app will automatically take you to this Data screen to show you how well you slept. This is the screen where you can check your Sleep Score, as well as all of the other factors that contribute to your Sleep Score. These individual factors include:
- Sleep Stages: wake vs. light sleep vs. deep sleep vs. REM sleep.
- Time Asleep: the total time you spent sleeping between bed and wake time.
- Time to Fall Asleep: how long it took you to fall asleep; also referred to as Sleep Onset Latency
- Sleep Efficiency: the percentage of time spent sleeping between bed and wake time.
- Deep Sleep: the percentage of time spent in deep sleep.
- REM Sleep: the percentage of time spent in REM sleep
- Restlessness: the number of times the headband detected a waking event after you initially fell asleep.
Settings
The Settings screen has four options to choose from: Sound, Preferences, Headband, and Support.
Sound
Tap on the Sound button to change the overall volume of the bone conduction speaker or to change the audio scene of the background sound.
If you’re not currently in an active Sleep Session, tapping the Sound button will automatically start playback of the currently selected background audio scene (default scene is “Rain”).
If you are in the middle of a Sleep Session, you’ll hear both the closed-loop pink noise stimulation and the background audio scene.
In either case, you should be wearing your headband to hear whether your adjustments and choices are to your liking.
Volume Slider
The volume buttons on your headband and the volume slider on the app work together. Changing the volume using the buttons on the headband will update the position of the volume slider bar on the app.
Note: Changing the volume on your phone has no effect on the volume of the headband.
Background Sound Options
The Elemind app currently offers two different background audio scene options:
- Rain
- Waterfall
These background audio scenes were included to provide you with a more pleasant listening experience without disrupting the effect of the closed-loop pink noise stimulation. The relative levels of the background sound and stimulation pulses were set based on our research studies and cannot be altered.
Preferences
Tap on the Preferences button to update or change details pertaining to your Elemind Account, headband pairing status, or to receive additional technical or customer support information.
Account
Your Elemind Account is divided into two categories: Membership and Profile
Membership
Your Account Membership shows details about your Elemind App subscription. Changes or updates to your Membership subscription can be made by going directly to the Elemind webpage.
Profile
Your Elemind User Profile stores information about your age, gender, height, and weight–all factors that can contribute to your overall sleep performance. Additionally, your User Profile contains information about your Sleep Goals and general sleep preferences. You can update any field in your User Profile at any time.
Headband
Tapping on the Headband button takes you to the Device Settings screen where you can check on the status of your headband. After you initially pair your headband with your phone, the Elemind app will scan to see if your headband is in range and automatically connect it.
If your headband is connected to the phone and app, the Device Settings screen will show you the battery status (in percent), current firmware and app software version, and whether updates are available.
Support
Tapping the Support button takes you to a screen with the following options:
Taking/Retaking the Product Tour
You can revisit the Product Tour from your initial onboarding process. In this case, the Product Tour skips the pairing and updating procedures and starts with the introduction to the headband.
Troubleshooting
You can find the link to our Troubleshooting and FAQ page here.
Customer Support
