1. 5/5Records incorrectly (now fixed)

   I use an Apple Watch to track my sleep and have for quite some time. AW tracks accurately. Sleep Watch takes this data and then adds its own inaccurate data to Apple Health, rendering that data inaccurate. I cannot find an option to disable this process, and SW support is slow to respond (apparently all of their support is overnight, which means they’ve farmed all support to the other side of the globe). I don’t recommend this app and have cancelled my subscription. Adding hours of sleep when I was awake does nothing to help me sleep. Update after developer response: Thank you for your response. Getting back to me within a day or two is reasonable, especially with a small team, but when I'm trying your service during a very short, seven-day trial window, overnight responses feel like I am being strung along to use up the trial and commit to paying. You are correct that I can simply remove Sleep Watch's ability to write sleep data and keep my Apple Watch's logging intact while still getting the insight from Sleep Watch. I followed your suggestion and gave SW another chance and am very happy I did so. The trend section is my favorite part of the app now as not only is Sleep Watch logging all of this useful data about my sleep (oxygen %, heart rate, etc.), but it also lets me see how these are trending across the last few days or weeks. I do have a long history of sleep issues, so I am dearly thankful for any tool that helps me wage war against these many sleep gremlins. Thanks again for your response. Without your answer, I would not have tried your suggestion that made Sleep Watch my go-to sleeping app to help minimize my sleeping problems. I am now a happy customer of yours.

2. 3/5Confusing and inconsistent reports

   I’ve been using this app for close to a year, I like that it tracked my oxygen levels and my pre-bedtime behaviors. I think it identified clearly that I sleep better after I’ve had physically active days. Other behaviors seem less important after tracking. But I’m confused with the number scoring system. I can have a similar number of hours of sleep, both restless and restful, with a similar change in heart rate and interruptions, and my score will vary between 200 and 500. I don’t understand the wild swings in the score after similar data in the various categories. It is frustrating when I wake after 8 hours, feeling rested and ready to tackle the day and then see my sleep score was “poor”. I am discontinuing my subscription, because, while I did learn that physical activity makes me sleep better, no surprise there, I don’t like the negative feedback even when I “feel” like I got a good night sleep. I have gotten some of my best scores when I neglected to wear my watch to bed. Or when the battery died partway through the night and it recorded only three hours of sleep for which I got a 600 score rather than seven hours sleep, and a 300. I am going to work on consistently increasing my daily physical activity and quit tracking my sleep. I did try it briefly for the snoring function, but it picked up our dog’s snoring, so not effective for us.

3. 5/5SleepWatch Review

   My combination Apple Watch and my SleepWatch application are my favorite health and athletic performance evaluation tools. I have found that a balanced program of biking walking my dog, swimming and biking maximize my nightly SleepWatch score. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea almost a year ago and my Sleep Doctor prescribed nightly use of a CPAP machine. My first reaction was that the CPAP machine was a giant pain in the neck. I got great SleepWatch scores without the CPAP machine. After a few weeks without using the CPAP I reasoned that if I continued my athletic program in combination with nightly use of my CPAP machine my Sleepwatch score should be even higher. I was delighted to find out that my highest Sleepwatch scores were obtained when I continued my daily workouts in combination with nightly use of my CPAP machine. The net benefit was that I now had a method of monitoring my sleep quality combined with monitoring my athletic performance in combination with the performance of my CPAP machine. I was so excited with this discovery that I made an appointment with my Sleep Apnea Doctor to share my SleepWatch Data. MY DOCTOR WAS IMPRESSED AND AGREED WITH MY ANALYSIS. Bottom line - I am “HAPPY AS A CLAM” and my cardio vascular health health as measured by my “doctors” is outstanding.

4. 3/5Like it but need to fix issue..

   Update: After trying so many time to get the app to show the reports on my watch it finally worked. I had to make sure I download the UPDATED version and that it’s the one for the watch NOT the phone. (When you search in the Apple store for the app, next to it should say Apple Watch) So I reinstalled it again, it started working. Still keeping at 3 stars due to me being patient enough to keep trying to get it to work on my own. I like this app it. I have tried a few and this seems to be the most accurate one that tracks my sleep with me wearing my watch to bed. My only issues with the app this is that I can’t see my reports on my Apple Watch (series 5), hence the only 3 stars. It still say “Setup Required. Complete setup on iPhone to continue.” I even uninstalled and reinstalled every way possible and restart my phone and watch still nothing. I even gave it two days before writing this review just so it can show up on my watch. I have tried everything that they recommended on the website for it to work but nothing. I even try clicking on the “feedback and support” in setting and it said that I don’t have an account, which is weird because I do and I’m logged into it. So I’m out of options. Please, please fix issues so I can fully get the best experience and report with this app. Thank you.

5. 1/5Records me then doesn’t let me listen, creepy and greedy

   The only reason I got this app was to see if I snore or not, and how much. I did not get the free trial because I knew it would auto charge me when it ends. And I just wanted to listen for 1 night. I set it up to record then went to sleep, only to find out when I wake up that it will not let me listen to myself. Why do you let me record if I don’t get to listen? There wasn’t some kind of pop up saying “hey you don’t have premium so you won’t get to listen to these recordings tomorrow”. So there’s no point in even having the app. I’m NOT going to pay money to listen to MYSELF. Now there’s sounds of me sleeping in some database somewhere. Also, when you’re setting up your profile thing it asks for your “biological sex” and gives no help for what trans or intersex people should choose. I naturally have hyperandrogenism, and I’ve been on testosterone for over a year. I have no idea if that will affect my sleep or not, and the app tells me literally nothing to help. It’s just “choose one”. Thankfully I can leave it not filled out, but then I think it doesn’t know my height, because if I go back to fill it out, it asks my height again. I’m fine with telling it my height but it seems to not keep it recorded unless I tell it my “biological sex”, whatever that would be in this situation. So make it more clear what trans and intersex people should choose, because just saying “biological” doesn’t help any when you’ve changed your biology or when your biology was different from the start.
