Leave a Review AutoSleep Track Sleep on Watch
Great Sleep Tracking (mostly)
The Apple Health app sleep tracking is somewhat basic and having just got my first Apple Watch and being excited about it (love this Watch!!!) I wanted something that was more in-depth. This fits the bill nicely. Seems way more accurate for my rubbish sleeping patterns and has a lot of great features for a small one off payment. None of that curse of the App Store “subscription” model.
Update: have discovered that like the Apple Health app, it does tend to claim I’ve slept from the start of the Bedtime alarm system, not the actual time I got in bed, which is annoying, but unlike the Health app, you can easily change it to when you did get in bed. For something called AutoSleep I shouldn’t have to do this, but at least I can adjust it accordingly. Also, tapping Lights Off on my Apple Watch strangely doesn’t seem to record when I look at the data in the morning, seeing as all the other data makes its way across. But again, can be adjusted in the app.
Still better sleep tracking than Apple.Show lessAdiwales
The Best Sleep App Available!
I’m one of those ‘go down the rabbit hole’ people who research everything. I spent a solid chunk of time researching sleep apps and settled on AutoSleep. BY FAR the best app right now! I’ve converted a number of people from Sleep Cycle and other various apps and they all love this one more. The ability to have it automatically determine when you’re sleeping is massive! It makes it VERY user friendly. The only thing I had to adjust to was charging my Apple Watch an hour before bed and then wearing it while I sleep, as I used to let it charge overnight. However, I’m super happy I made this small change because legitimately my sleep hygiene has improved along with my quality. The only hiccup I’ve ran into is to make sure my iPhone is NOT on the bed, as I have the setting turned on for it to think if I’m using the phone then I am awake. I thought this would mean actively using it (phone unlocked and screen on), but apparently it uses the sensors for movement as well. Not a big deal, though it’d be nice to have the option to turn that off (sometimes I fall asleep reading on my phone). 5/5 stars and highly recommend the app! This is coming from a random, unaffiliated user who never writes reviews!Show lessWhat Happened to Music?
Complicated at first but now amazing!
I never really paid for apps, but ever since I got myself an Apple Watch and decided to take my mental and overall health more seriously decided to find the best apps for a few different things I want to improve. I was coming off Fitbit and was quite satisfied with the sleep app within but disappointed in the sleep app that comes with the Apple Watch hence finding this gem after a few reviews online pointing me to this direction. At first felt a bit complicated and messy to navigate but just like the Apple health stats, just need to give it time to track sleep patterns and now I can’t get enough! Really helping me push for better quality sleep and I’ve found myself applying better sleeping habits. Must have app, Especially for Apple Watch users!! With a 1 off payment and no annoying adds or subscription requests it’s great value for money.Show lessNATORIOUZ BUU

Love this app, but completely stopped working with latest iOS update. Yes, all permissions were allowed.True Albertan

Hi, Apple have reported a fix in the recent 14.2 update, stating a fix “for some users, health data were not synced between Apple Watch and iPhone”. We suggest updating to iOS 14.2. Please email appsupport@tantsissa.com if additional support is required.I feel bad for the developer
This app has been fantastic since the first day I got my Apple watch!
... Until iOS 14 and watch os 7. I haven't recorded a single minute of sleep since the update. I feel bad for the developer, but this has been Apple's way of doing business for years and years. Copy the most successful 3rd party apps, make their features default functionality, then screw up their ability to operate. They should be sued over it, but for now that's just how it goes doing business with Apple.Show lessPeterDTown

... since updating to watchOS 7, it’s stopped tracking my sleep hours correctly. Needs a major update before anyone should purchase.brosbrahs

I’ve been using this sleep app for a few years now, I just realised. The app provides so much information for every single night (& naps too) that it’s become integrated into my whole way of understanding my lifestyle and health.
Let me explain. This app offers graphic descriptions in chart, wheel, statistical and graph forms. I naturally gravitate toward specific info everyday, but sooner or later I look at all of it. As I compare and contrast the nights of sleep, I naturally ponder what made the difference in quality of sleep. Experimenting with how late I ate before sleep, one example, I discover the latest time I can eat without negativity impacting my ability to fall to sleep effortlessly.
Oh and speaking of falling to sleep effortlessly, that was an impossible feat when I first started using this app! Now I’ve come to know the joy of sufficient energy to get things accomplished in a day... because of a good night’s sleep. Wow. That, my friends, is like reclaiming my life.
Long story short - use this app if you really want to get to the bottom of your sleep issues, like insomnia and interrupted sleep.Show lesscosmoblivion
Very good
This is genius and going to change/save my life.
This App was not really great for me in the past, but now that it’s a lot better and has the AutoSleep app I have totally feel different
I got AirPod pros right before and what I do is put them in, play the appropriate setting in Endel app and then set my alarm. I have a back up just in case it fails to arouse me, haven’t needed it yet though.
This app is changing my life already. I have type 1 bipolar, severe anxiety, ADD, and depression is a cloud or blanket I’ve lived with holding me down and ruining me since I turned age 9 two decades ago...
I am also now “obese” but it just seems like I have a beer belly haha. It’s not really bad, but since I got on certain meds it totally made my body head that way.
I have always had advice from different professionals that I need to change my diet, replace bad habits with good habits, and most of all get a good night sleep. Sleep has a tremendous affect on health. My stress level has been too high lately - I feel better the past few days than I have in months. All thanks to my new Apple Watch and AutoSleep and AutoWakez
I can do that now and I already feel my mind is more focused, I don’t feel groggy, my anxiety lessened, I am in a much better mood,
I am able to cut my procrastination down and it’s not a struggle to get out of bed, start my day. This literally has changed my most important part of the day so that I start on a much better mood and attitude. Thank you!Show lessChargingWaters
Congested, non-intuitive interface
Downloaded the app as a first time Apple Watch owner. I previously used a FitBit Charge 2 for sleep tracking, which had little to no setup or calibration and seemed to be fairly accurate for a wrist wearable. For me, this app has required multiple calibrations, and I find the data it produces difficult to interpret and the menus difficult to find and revisit. The “Readiness” rating seems to be the most arbitrary of all the data the app produces. I gave it two weeks before rating but things haven’t really improved. I’m going to keep plugging away, hoping that it becomes more useful for me.
UPDATE: Still experiencing issues with data accuracy. The application has a Sleep/Wake Consistency feature that will track your sleep and wake times, however you cannot set your sleep time past 12am midnight. For someone who goes to bed at 2am, this feature is rendered completely useless because of a software limitation. One positive I will point out is their email support team is pretty responsive; I’ve reached out twice with issues and gotten responses fairly quickly. That being said, I’ll be exploring other sleep tracking applications while waiting for Apple to release theirs for watchOS.Show lessFFfFFFffffffffff1133566
Best Health Apps By Far
Autosleep and Healthwatch are simply incredible apps and a must for anyone interested in their health. I am a physician and a bit obsessed with data. I’ve tried a dozen health tracking devices and even more apps and these two, by far, are the most insightful and well designed apps for the iPhone and Apple Watch. I’ve spent hours over the last couple months reviewing the various trends and graphical analytics these apps offer for immediate and long term feedback on my sleep hygiene and heart health. My only wish is that the developer make more apps to track other aspects of health and wellness (SpO2, perfusion index, respiratory rate, and VO2 max as the Apple Watch 6 is rumored to have these features; caloric intake and nutrition; mental health and mindfulness; maybe even goal and habit tracking). These two apps pack so much analysis into a concise and easy to read manner, I wish the other wellness aspects that I track could offer as much insight. While those would require ground-up brand new apps, one thing which could possibly be incorporated into the HeartWatch app would be the ECG data. Even though it’s only one lead, tracking QTc and PR intervals should be doable. Just a thought for future iterations. Anyway, these apps are an incredible deal and offer way more for far less than anything else I’ve found on the App Store. Keep up the good work.Show lessDMFMDJD
