Sleep app availability
The Sleep app will no longer be available for download after 21 July 2025.
Bose Sleepbuds were discontinued in 2023. Despite their passionate following, Sleepbuds did not reach the level of adoption we hoped they would. On 21 July, 2025, we will end development of the Bose Sleep app and remove it for download. To continue using your Sleepbuds without the app, lock your Sleepbuds to your favorite setting with Phone-free mode. For more info, visit Using Phone-Free mode.
