long story short
- Fitbit has redesigned its app to provide better sleep tracking features and insights.
- The updated app makes it easier to view your sleep duration, sleep score, and a detailed schedule of sleep stages.
- Users can now track sleep patterns over weeks, months, or even a year to see how their sleep changes.
Fitbit, one of the top names in fitness trackers, just announced a refresh of the sleep tracking experience in its app. This update to Fitbit’s already leading sleep experience simplifies navigation while giving users more detailed insights into their sleep habits.
Fitbit announced the following changes to the app:
- The sleep section of the Fitbit app now displays important data instantly and prominently. Sleep duration, sleep score, and sleep timeline are easily accessible on a single page.
- Users can press and hold on the sleep timeline chart to view precise timestamps for events such as waking up or the end of a deep sleep cycle.
- The app now offers weekly, monthly and yearly views, allowing users to analyze changes in sleep patterns over longer periods of time.
Initial comments from the Fitbit community indicate positive reception to the changes, although there have been calls for more color and visual segmentation to be added to the app design to improve accessibility for users with visual processing differences.
The updated sleep experience is now available on Fitbit’s Android app. Although there is no official news about the iOS version yet, it is expected to be released soon.
