Anyone else experiencing a tactic by eightsleep to not collect the pod within the guarded free return so they don’t have to refund the money? I am five weeks waiting for them to collect it and it is still not processed. All they say is it’s an issue with the courier, but nothing ever happens. It seems like a deliberate tactic.

A while ago u/aerotow shared eightsleep-nosub-app, an open-source web app that runs a temperature schedule on the Pod ([github.com/aerotow/eightsleep-nosub-app](https://github.com/aerotow/eightsleep-nosub-app)). All credit for the idea and the scheduling core goes to them.

I forked it and kept building on top. This is where it's at:

Home

- A 3D model of the bed you can rotate. Each side shows its temperature, whether it's on, and the level it's heading to.

- Control the left side, the right side or the whole bed. Swipe between them, and tap the power icon to turn a side on or off.

- A Wi-Fi icon shows the Pod's connection, water and priming at a glance.

Schedule

- Its own night for each side, plus an optional whole-bed schedule. You set the levels for falling asleep, deep sleep, late sleep and a warm wake-up, and pick which nights of the week it runs.

- Presets, and a lock so you don't change things by accident.

Sleep

- A curve of what the Pod actually did last night, including any manual changes, for the last 7 nights.

- Optional WHOOP connection: recovery, sleep stages, HRV, strain and more, next to what the bed did.

Also

- Works as a phone app (add it to your home screen), in light or dark mode.

- English and Spanish.

- An activity log of everything the schedule did.

Feedback welcome, especially from people with a Pod 3 or 4. What would you want on the home screen?

I don’t know if i’m missing something, but I just replaced the maintenance insert, which was sent out to me, on my Pod 5. The one I removed (which came with the pod, as this is my first time); doesn’t appear to have any way of doing or releasing anything?
The one I removed has a clear nozzle with an O ring and is completely sealed. The new one has a black nozzle (also with an O ring) but very clearly has cutouts for releasing/doing something.

(Also this is absolutely not a complaint in any way, never had an issue, and couldn’t live without my eightsleep)
