No sleep stages for me today, just a sleep timeline (awake / restless / asleep). I do have a large ad for 'Sleep Insights and Tips' but when I click on it is says 'full' - the notice takes up a lot of real estate on the screen but I cannot remove it. I do have premium which renews (or not) soon and have worn a Fitbit since 2015. I did receive all my health metrics today so I don't understand why the sleep didn't work. Hoping it is not a new 'format' as it provide no useful information.

@MBwalkingMB , A warm welcome to the Community! Thank you for your message. 

Please verify that the heart rate was recorded continuously, and that there were no interruptions during the sleep. 
Also please take the following into consideration: 

The following conditions can prevent sleep phases from being recorded:

- You record your sleep using the app instead of the tracker's automatic sleep detection.
- The tracker's battery is almost empty when you go to bed (less than 25%). This prevents regular heart rate recording.
- You use the metal bracelet while sleeping
- You sleep less than 3 hours.
- The bracelet is too loose or too tight on your wrist. You should be able to put your index finger between the bracelet and your arm without much resistance so that your heart rate is recorded regularly and sleep phases can be recognized.

Hello @MBwalkingMB 

I noticed some weirdness with Fitbit sleep & stress tracking on Tuesday & Wednesday (03 & 04 Dec 2024).

I didn't get a sleep score on Tuesday morning, although I saw my sleep stages & all the Health metrics. However, there was no sleep heart rate data, although I confirmed heart rate tracked by looking at the Heart tile. Both the sleeping heart rate and sleep score appeared later in the day. However, I didn't get a Stress Management score on either day, although I saw that all the data needed for the algorithm was in the app.

Everything seems to be back this morning (05 Dec 2024).

Did you get your sleep stages this morning?
