Bedtime Favorite is a new feature of the Rest family. Rest 2nd Gen includes 1 Bedtime Favorite to help your little one transition into sleep. With your Bedtime Favorite, you'll be able to move seamlessly from storytime, snuggles, or lullabies, right into a peaceful slumber. It can be enabled to follow any Favorite or Routine step with wind-down content selected.

How to use your Bedtime Favorite after playing a Favorite
Select the pencil icon above the My Favorites section. Select the Favorite that you'd like your Bedtime Favorite to follow. Select a bedtime story, lullaby, kid-approved meditation, or any of Hatch Sleep Library's hundreds of expert-curated sleep tracks. At the bottom of your Edit Favorite screen, you'll see a button to toggle on - if activated, the next time you play that Favorite when the content ends it will transition into your Bedtime Favorite, which you've preset with your favorite sleep sound (i.e. white noise, thunderstorm, ocean) + light combination.

Here's an example of how your Bedtime Favorite works using a Favorite:
You and your little one snuggle and start your favorite to listen to Head Shoulders Knees and Toes before bed with a warm red light.
Once the song ends, your Bedtime Favorite fades in. You set it up once and you're good to go every night. Rest starts playing your preset combination of blue light with Thunderstorm sounds. The light turns to blue, dims itself to 60%, and sets Thunderstorm to play at 35% volume all night.
You can tiptoe out of the room knowing that your family is all set for snoozing until morning.

How to use your Bedtime Favorite after a step in your Routine
Select the pencil icon above the My Routine section. Select the Routine step that you'd like your Bedtime Favorite to follow. Select a bedtime story, lullaby, kid-approved meditation, or any of Hatch Sleep Library's hundreds of expert-curated sleep tracks (remember a Bedtime Favorite cannot follow one of the preloaded 9 sounds). In the middle of your Edit Routine screen, you'll see a Follow by Bedtime Favorite button to toggle on - if activated, the next time this step of your Routine ends it will transition into your Bedtime Favorite, which you've preset with your favorite sleep sound (i.e. white noise, thunderstorm, ocean) + light combination.

Here's an example of how your Bedtime Favorite works in your Routine:
It's gearing up to bedtime and your Routine begins at the scheduled time - you and your little one finish your Elephant Breathing and The Story-Book of Science Sleep Story. Once the story ends, your Bedtime Favorite fades in. You set it up once and you're good to go every night. Rest starts playing your preset combination of red light with Rain sounds. The light turns to red, dims itself to your set brightness level, and sets Rain to play all night.
