Charge 6 only records sleep properly when worn on my left wrist?

Hi 

I can't figure this out, my sleep tracking only works accurately in the sense the duration is correct and I actually receive a sleep score if worn on my left wrist (non-dominant hand).

Now you may think it must be because my right arm must be in a position that is affecting my HR reading but it really isn't.. also the tightness level I wear the watch to on my right is no different to my left. 

I have it set in the app that my right hand is my dominant hand also.. cant unpick this puzzle tbh.

Hello, @StylezP Welcome back to the forums.

I appreciate your post about this situation in regards to the sleep score not being tracked when wearing your Charge 6 in your dominant hand.

My best recommendation for you would be restarting the Charge 6:

- Swipe down from the clock screen to find the Settings app .
- Open the Settings app then Restart Device then Restart.

After this, try to get your sleep score normally and follow these recommendations.

This the only post I can find about this same issue that I am having too! It’s super frustrating because the band is causing skin issues on my left wrist, so I have to wear it on my right occasionally. The readings are either way off or non-existent when I wear it on my right wrist overnight. 🤷🏻‍:female_sign:
