Sleep Cycle Bedtime Calculator

Where I found this app helpful is, I noticed I naturally wake up near 7:40 am most days. If that’s normal for me, then I might consider being in bed by a certain time. It is something to try for be better sleep health. The app offers two choices.

It’s a handy way to keep up with what time to go to sleep

I like the straight forwardness of this app!

This may be user error, but the info isn’t set to a graph. I’m a visual person and enjoy a good graph. Also, it’s just data. No other helpful information as to how my sleep is affecting me…as in general research about my specific sleep patterns. It did say that “a (generalized) sleep cycle is typically about 90min” and that more cycles are good. I didnt see it show me how many “sleep cycles” I achieved. Again, may be user error? Not a very helpful app.

I have only had the app for a few days and still trying to interpret the graphs and information. I could use some tips if available.

I’m lazy and hate to do math but I still want to know how many hours I sleep if I go to bed at a certain time and need to be up by a certain time. Now that I start the gym at 4:00 am in able to know what time to go to sleep to get my needed hours of rest. Great app.

Great app.

All this app does is tell you how many hours of sleep you’ll get at 6 possible times based on what time you tell it you want to go to bed, or the exact reverse, what time you need to go to bed if you want to wake up at a particular time and want to get X hours of sleep. IOW, all it does is 1st grade arithmetic, which you can obviously easily count yourself, whether forwards or backwards, by just adding or subtracting X hours from your desired bedtime or wake up time. It actually skips two hour twice in each section, so if you want a time in between those pairs, you’ll have to manually calculate it anyways. In fairness, that’s really all it says it will do, and the changes are instant, as you turn the dial. The problem is the app came up when I searched on “sleep tracker” - and it just doesn’t actually track anything at all, so it seems that the developer has miscategorized it. But s/he *did* say it’s a sleep tracker, so the fact that it definitely isn’t what I’m basing my stars on. *And* the thing about the skipped hours.

I accidentally deleted the sleep app on my Apple Watch. I tried to replace it with this app, but I can’t seem to figure out how to set it up correctly or get the information I want from it. It has the same icon as my previous app, but it’s not user friendly.
