Bedhead is a sleep tracker that helps you get to bed on time. Every morning: how long you slept, what the night was made of, and how that compares to your own 14-night average. Every night: the time to turn in, worked out from your wake time and how much sleep you want. And the thing a sleep score never tells you — how steady your bedtime actually is. ±24 minutes, in plain minutes, so you can watch it tighten. FREE • Last night: how long you slept, your stages, and how that compares to your own average. • Any night in detail: bedtime and wake against what you were aiming for, and a timeline of your stages. • How steady your bedtime is, how often you're on time, which way it's drifting. • Tonight's bed-by, from your wake time and target. Ask Siri for it, too. • One wind-down reminder, 30 minutes before. Off by default. PREMIUM • Overnight vitals: heart rate, HRV, breathing and wrist temperature, against your usual range. • A bedtime plan that walks you to your target a few minutes a night, re-anchoring to your real bedtimes every week. When you arrive, it shows you what changed. • Your consistency compared to your prior weeks and your year. • Weekend jet lag, month by month, sleep debt. • What moves your sleep: naps, workouts, active days and on-time nights, measured over a year of your own nights. Only differences clear enough to trust are shown. • A weekly summary, written by Apple Intelligence on supported devices. • Home Screen and lock-screen widgets. • CSV export. No score. No grade. No smart alarm. No streaks. No goals to fail. Your data stays in your own iCloud — no account, no server. Bedhead reads sleep you've already recorded with Apple Health, on an Apple Watch or compatible tracker.

Rested

Track your sleep with the iPhone on your mattress. No watch, no band. Rested senses your movement and (if you allow it) listens for snoring and sleep talk, then greets you each morning with an honest Sleep Score and a clear picture of your night. EVERY NIGHT IS FREE Set your phone on the mattress, tap Start, and sleep. Every morning you get your Sleep Score and full report, free. Rested Pro adds the why: a smart alarm, snore and sleep-talk recordings you can play, a written summary of each night, what affects your sleep, long-range trends, every sound and the mixer, and the full Sleep Coach on every question. WHAT RESTED DOES • Your own AI Sleep Coach. Ask why last night went the way it did or what to change tonight. It reads the nights Rested has tracked for you and answers with practical, evidence based guidance. • Sleep tracking with no wearable required. Motion and sound analysis from your iPhone estimate when you fell asleep, how continuous your sleep was and when you were restless. • Smart Alarm (Rested Pro). Set a wake window (say, 6:45 to 7:15) and Rested aims to wake you at your lightest moment inside it, and at the end of the window at the latest. On iOS 26, once you allow alarms for Rested, it uses the iPhone alarm system, so it rings on silent and even if Rested is closed. On earlier iOS versions, keep Rested open overnight with your ringer on. • Snore and sleep talk detection. Snoring and talking are counted every night. With Rested Pro, short clips are saved on your phone so you can play them in the morning, and you can mark any clip Not me. • A Sleep Score you can trust. A 0 to 100 score built from your sleep duration, continuity, schedule consistency, and disturbances. With less data (no mic access, for example), we say so and score with what we have. • Tag what affected your night: caffeine, alcohol, stress, late screens and more. With Rested Pro, Rested links your tags to your Sleep Score over time and shows which ones actually matter for you. • Streaks and consistency. Rested tracks your streak and a weekly consistency score. Missed a night? Log it manually. • Sleep sounds and mixer. Noise, rain, ocean, and ambient loops. Layer up to three, set a sleep timer, and save named mixes. • Works with Apple Health. If you wear an Apple Watch to bed, Rested uses its data for a sharper analysis and writes your nights back to Apple Health. No Watch? Everything still works. • Trends. Your last 7 nights free; 30 nights and a full year with Rested Pro, plus your night by night history. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your sleep data is stored on your iPhone. No account required, no analytics SDKs, no ads, and your data is never sold. Audio is analyzed on your device and never uploaded. When you ask the Sleep Coach a question, your question and a summary of the nights Rested tracked are sent securely to write the answer. If you turn on the nightly AI summary (Rested Pro), a summary of the nights Rested tracked is sent to write it. Apple Health data and recordings never are. Export your nights or erase everything, any time, from Settings. RESTED PRO Every night and its report are free, and so is the Sleep Coach: full answers for your first 7 days (up to 30), then 3 a week. Rested Pro adds everything above for $2.00/week, $6.00/month, or $39.99/year with a 7 day free trial for new subscribers (cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends and you won't be charged), or a one time Lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled in your Apple Account settings. A NOTE ON HONESTY Rested estimates sleep for general wellness. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose or treat any condition. The Sleep Coach is an AI, not a doctor. If you're worried about your sleep, please talk to a doctor.
