Your Apple Watch tracks sleep stages, heart rate, heart rate variability (HRV), blood oxygen, ECG, temperature, sleep apnea, breathing disturbances, and more—but what does all that data mean? More importantly, what do you actually do to get more shut eye? If your Apple Watch detects sleep apnea, get medical care covered by insurance. Empirical Sleep distills your Apple Watch health data into one simple sleep score, then suggests actions to help you improve your sleep duration, onset, and quality. Unlike other free sleep trackers for Apple Watch, we're focused not just on more data, but helping you actually sleep better and get more shuteye. ** Sleep score ** Our sleep score auto combines everything into one simple number, including the percentage of time you spend in REM sleep, deep sleep, your heart rate, HRV, and oxygen during sleep, your sleep duration, and how long it took you to fall asleep. On the checkup screen, you can monitor your health stats against other users of Empirical Sleep and medical norms to understand where you're above, below, and right around the average. ** Take action to improve your sleep ** The goal of all this health monitoring isn't just tracking—it's to act and get better shuteye. The goals tab suggests a comprehensive plan to improve your sleep, including assessing sleep hygiene and risk of sleep apnea. ** Monitor your risk of sleep apnea ** 1 in 8 adults have sleep apnea. What's more, 80% of people with sleep apnea don't realize they have it. On the checkup screen, assess your risk of sleep apnea using a medically-validated questionnaire. If you receive an Apple Watch sleep apnea alert, book a priority appointment directly with a doctor for sleep apnea testing and treatment. ** Native Apple Watch app ** View your sleep duration, onset, quality, and stages (REM/deep/core/awake) directly on your watch using our native Apple Watch sleep app. ** Watch face & iPhone lock screen widgets ** Display your sleep stages, sleep duration, onset, and quality directly on your watch face or your iPhone's lock screen, using the new widgets introduced in iOS 16 and watchOS 9. ** Compatible, integrated with health, and free with an optional subscription ** Empirical Sleep is compatible with Apple Watch Series 3 and above. It integrates with the Health app to auto track your sleep segments, heart rate, HRV, blood oxygen (SpO2), steps, sleep stages, breathing disturbances, sleep apnea alerts, and activity. Empirical Sleep is a free app to download, with an optional paid subscription. ** About Empirical Health ** Empirical Health's mission is to build proactive healthcare. Today's healthcare system spends $1.1T reacting to chronic conditions and only a tenth of that on prevention. Our goal is to flip that and build a new type of primary care that's preventive rather than reactive, starting with sleep. Please seek a doctor’s advice in addition to using this app and before making any medical decisions. If you need a doctor, you book a video visit directly through this app. We accept most major health insurance.

Sleep time is a great app.

This is a great app that helps me stay on track with my sleep, wind down time and waking up to ensure I get an almost full night’s rest. I am very satisfied with this app and suggested to everybody. It is in my phone as well as my 49 mm Apple Watch is I have the alarm set and it keeps track of my sleep duration in the morning.

Goes beyond sleep tracking

What I like about this app is that it doesn’t just track data, it actually recommends ways to improve my sleep.

Good app for better sleep data

Been using this app since yesterday and do like it a lot with the data. I give it a 3 star though as it needs some UI improvements such as the Apple Watch face doesn’t seem to work properly (cannot use certain complications as they somehow show blank) and cannot submit my information about Sleep Apnea as there is a scroll issue.

Developer Response
Thank you smileyjpark.I just found the scroll issue bug--it will be fixed in version 2.5.1.For the Apple Watch face, would you be able to send some details to hello@empirical.health, e.g., your model of Apple Watch and a screenshot of what you're seeing?

Clean design, but data is wrong

The data pulled from Apple Health was way way off — by 3 minutes the previous night to hours on past nights (laughably showed me sleeping 17 hours a few nights ago). Obviously something is going haywire. Shame, because the interpretation of the data would be much more useful than what I see in Apple Health, which really gives no context. The app has a nice clean design & was otherwise easy to use
