The tradeoff: Routines are built in the Dreamegg app, it must stay plugged in, and Dreamegg's page does not say what works without the app or the internet.
From Dreamegg’s own pages: the sources.

Features Dreamegg’s pages don’t mention aren’t listed here, so the clock matcher won’t suggest this clock for them.
A nap timer and a nap wake-up time work differently. The planner keeps them separate.
Clocks changing, or an early riser? Move the wake-up light in small steps with the clock-change planner.
Without Wi-Fi or a phone
The maker does not say whether saved schedules keep running without Wi-Fi, so the matcher leaves it out when you need that.
Power, and what happens in a power cut
Plugged in
Needs to stay plugged in · DC power adapter and USB-C cable (included)
Nite 1 must stay connected to power, so its light and sounds stop in a power cut.
- Runs on battery?
- Needs to stay plugged in
- Power connection
- DC power adapter and USB-C cable (included)
See why a battery that keeps the settings is different from one that keeps the light on.
Subscription and included parts

When your child outgrows the light
Dreamegg Nite 1 has a sound alarm you set apart from the wake-up light, so it can become your child’s alarm clock once school mornings start. When to move on to a kids’ alarm clock.
Check it in your home
While you can still return it, try the buttons and the app you will actually use. These are checks for you to make; we have not tested this clock.
- Find how to change the times and switch the wake-up light on, then check it shows the light and sound you chose.
- Check the brightness, the volume and where the clock stands, using the maker’s placement advice. Check what the lock stops and which buttons still work.
- Use the clock’s own preview or test, if it has one, rather than unplugging it or resetting it to see what happens.
- Have the other parent, a grandparent or the sitter open the app with their own account. Read what to do after a power cut before you need it.
Agree on what the light means and what to do if it does not come on, then keep the manual or the maker’s help page with your plan.
Show your child what this clock’s light means, and leave a note for the sitter.
If the light does not come on, check the time, the mode and the power before you reset the clock.
