  • Not easy

    Difficult to set and morning alarm goes off when you don’t want it to

    You must’ve confused Sleep Calc with another app. Sleep Calc doesn’t have an alarm. So this can’t be from my app. Best, Kak
  • No Graphs

    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.

    It’s a simple calculator to figure out good times to wake up / go to sleep. Not a sleep tracker. It would be considerate to rate the app on what it’s marketed as. In the latest version I added some analytics, if you have sleep data in Apple Health. I do hope to expand the functionality in the future. Best, Kai

  • Unfamiliar

    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.

    Thank you for the review. Sleep Calc doesn’t show graphs or data. It’s just a calculator for the time to go to sleep or wake up.
  • Great !

    I’ve tried many apps to track my sleep cycles but all of them were overpriced with many useless options. This one is so easy and efficient !! Just what i needed, and on top of that it’s free :D Thank you for this application

    Thank you. I’m happy you like it.
  • App lives up to its name.

    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.

  • SO SIMPLE

    One page with every necessity in it. When I get in bed I write the hour i want to wake up the next morning and it gives me EVERY possible hour I could choose to fall asleep not just « what is recommended ». There’s no difference now if I’m only sleeping for 4h or for 9h: I always wake up energized!! This saved my life THANK YOU:)

  • Doesn’t actually do anything

    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 am sorry for the confusion Wendy. I don’t categorize or describe the app as a sleep tracker. It’s as you found out a simple calculator. Some people find it convenient instead of doing the math themselves. Apple‘s search algorithm automatically decides to put my app for sleep tracker. It’s not my fault and I can’t do anything against that. The rows are based on sleep cycles, which are 90 minutes. So that’s why it’s not listing each hour. According to some sleep research it‘s better to wake up after a multiple of 90 minutes instead of in between a sleep cycle. If you can consider editing your rating it’ll help people, who’re looking for a simple sleep time calculator like my app. Here’s the description, which doesn’t mention sleep tracking: Sleep smarter. Feel more refreshed. Calculate the best time to wake up or when to go to bed. It's based on sleep cycles. They're about 90 minutes each and it's good to get 5-6 cycles. Sleeping at midnight for 5 cycles? Wake up at 7:30 AM. Need to wake up at 6:00 AM, but want 6 cycles? Then hit the bed at 9:00 PM. Not falling asleep immediately? Customize your fall asleep time. PS: Most people need ~ 15 minutes to fall asleep. - Apple Watch support - Customize time to fall asleep
