Sleep+‪+‬ 4+

Changed from a Garmin watch, which has sleep tracking as part of its app. Surprised to find that this kind of thing wasn’t part of the the Apple Watch’s, so looked about and read that this was a good app. I have to say it automatically tracks my sleep and transfers data to the health and activity apps problem free. Now the however, I had a restless sleep one night and was awake several times, this app didn’t pick this up or register it at all, claiming I had had a full night’s sleep. Have tried another app running along side this, the other app recorded when I had woken up

I have to agree with all the other reviews on here about the lack of accuracy. 2 nights ago it said I was asleep from 7pm until 6:30am. At 7pm I was watching TV with my wife until about 10am. I then got up, took the dogs out for a final toilet stop, then locked up the house, said good night to my children, brushed my teeth, then went to bed.. according to the app I had been soundly asleep with no moments of being awake.. how can it possibly detect periods of deep sleep and REM if it can’t detect that I am actively moving around the house and garden?!

There is no doubt that wearable tech has come a long way, but when the data is so unreliable it adds no benefit at all..

Have been using this app less than a week but will be deleting it..

In the main this app is very good and pretty accurate in what it does. However, like all algorithm driven apps there are blips in it’s performance. Whilst in the main the app records my sleep patterns pretty accurately (which is the reason bought it in the first place) it does not accurately account for the time I an awake and moving. It is for that reason I’ve removed a star as in all other respects it meets my needs.
