Log last night in a minute and see what really affects your sleep – caffeine, alcohol, exercise and more. Simple, private and synced with iCloud. Better Sleep Diary is a simple, private sleep diary. Log how you slept in about a minute, note what might have affected your night, and watch your sleep change over time. Keeping a sleep diary is one of the most useful things you can do when you're trying to sleep better. It turns a vague "I slept badly" into something you can measure, and makes it easier to see which habits help and which don't. It's also what doctors and sleep specialists often ask their patients to keep, including during CBT-I (cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia).
