## What is SleepShift?

Finally, a sleep app built for shift workers.

Regular sleep apps assume you sleep at night. SleepShift doesn't. Whether you work nights, evenings, or rotating shifts — SleepShift calculates your optimal sleep window based on YOUR actual schedule.

HOW IT WORKS:
1. Enter your shift pattern (day, evening, night, or custom hours)
2. Set your rotation (e.g., 4 days on, 4 days off)
3. Get personalized sleep recommendations every day

WHAT YOU GET:
- Optimal sleep windows calculated for each shift
- Home screen and lock screen widgets — your next wind-down, bedtime and wake time at a glance
- A Live Activity that follows your window on the lock screen and Dynamic Island
- Light exposure guide — when to seek or avoid bright light
- Wind-down and bedtime reminders, scheduled days ahead
- Caffeine cutoff and melatonin timing
- Pre-shift nap recommendations for night workers
- Sleep imported automatically from Apple Health — rate a night with one tap
- Trends across your shifts, with plain-language insights
- Edit any single day: swap a shift, take one off, pick up an extra

BUILT FOR:
- Nurses and healthcare workers
- Factory and warehouse workers
- Pilots and flight attendants
- Police and emergency responders
- Truck drivers
- Anyone working non-traditional hours

THE SCIENCE:
SleepShift uses circadian rhythm research to calculate when your body is best prepared for sleep based on your shift end time. Night shift workers get specific guidance on light avoidance, sunglasses timing, and room darkening. Rotating shift workers get transition-day plans when switching between day and night shifts. And because no real roster is a perfect rotation, you can change any single day without touching your pattern.

WHY SLEEPSHIFT:
- Designed for shift work from the start, not a night-sleeper app with a setting added
- 25 million Americans do shift work
- Poor shift-work sleep is linked to serious health risks
- We help you sleep better, feel better, and stay healthier

Try free for 14 days. Plans start at $2.92/month (billed annually).

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.2 — 2026-10-22

Enjoying SleepShift? You can now rate it from Settings. Every rating helps other shift workers find the app.

The sleep trend chart now always shows the last two weeks, so a break in logging no longer squeezes the dates together.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-10-21

Reminders now start on day one. After you set up your shifts, SleepShift offers to remind you when to wind down, when to get into bed, and when to seek or avoid light — so you don't have to remember to open the app after a long shift. You can still turn them on any time in Settings.

Times now follow your device's clock, so they show as 24-hour if that's how your phone is set.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-24

SleepShift now works without opening it.

WIDGETS AND LIVE ACTIVITY
See your next wind-down, bedtime and wake time on your home screen or lock screen. When your window starts, a Live Activity follows it on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island, counting down to bedtime and then to wake.

YOUR REAL ROSTER
No schedule is a perfect rotation. You can now change any single day — swap a shift, take one off, or pick up an extra — without touching your pattern.

SLEEP TRACKING THAT ISN'T A CHORE
Nights are imported from Apple Health automatically. All you do is tap how it felt.

SEE THE PATTERN
A new chart shows your last two weeks coloured by the shift each night followed, with insights in plain language, like how much less you sleep after night shifts than after day shifts.

MORE OF WHAT WAS PROMISED
Pre-shift nap timing and shift-transition plans now appear on your dashboard.

FIXES
Your schedule no longer runs out after a few weeks — it now extends itself automatically. Reminders are scheduled days ahead instead of stopping when you close the app. Sleep windows that cross midnight are calculated correctly.

Thank you to everyone who wrote in asking for more. Keep it coming.
