How do I choose which conditions to follow?

How does snooze work?

  • You can snooze for a chosen number of hours or snooze until a specific time of day.

What about privacy and security?

  • Its data flow is limited to Whisker endpoints used for robot functionality and does not rely on unrelated third-party telemetry servers.
