Fitbit Sleep Profiles
Some people may think they are a tiger in bed, or a sloth. Unfortunately, Fitbit didn't pick those animals for the new sleep profiles. You can be a giraffe, bear, dolphin, hedgehog, parrot or turtle. Each animal represents a different sleeping pattern, in terms of going to bed early, waking up late, and when you fall asleep. Between July 4 and 6, the sleep profiles will appear in the Fitbit app, after you've slept at least 14 nights per calendar month with a Fitbit wearable on your wrist. You see your sleep profile, including sleeping animal and monthly sleep analysis. Maybe take a cuddly toy of the animal in question with you in bed?
The idea behind the sleeping animals is that you gain more insight into your sleeping pattern. It also includes statistics such as sleep schedule variability (often going to sleep at the same time or not), time it takes to fall asleep, and interrupted sleep. In addition, you get to see the long-standing statistics about sleep duration, deep sleep and REM sleep. The more times you lie in bed with your Fitbit, the more accurate the measurements.
The announcement of the new Fitbit sleep features comes at the right time: right after Apple announced expanded watchOS 9 sleep features. The Google company has offered sleep features for much longer and is now expanding it further. Google has studied more than 1,000 properties, collected 22 billion hours of sleep data and 1.87 million sleep logs to arrive at the top 10 metrics.
