Hi my Fitbit inspire 2 is not showing the sleep stages and the sleep tracking looks way off because 1 time I slept 9 hours and today I slept 5 hours and I have Fitbit premium also if this helps I use the begin sleep now option. That is all thanks

@SunsetRunner in order to get full sleep data, you need to let your Fitbit detect sleep automatically. If you use the "Begin Sleep Now" feature, you will only get simplified sleep details. Instead, just go to sleep and let your Fitbit figure it out for itself.

Hi there, @SunsetRunner. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. Thanks for the details provided in your post about the issue with your sleep stages. We're here to help you! 

As @alexthecat has pointed out, if you used the Begin Sleep Now option in the Fitbit app (instead of simply wearing your device to bed), this would explain why you're not getting your sleep stages. 

There are a few scenarios where you might see your sleep pattern (which shows your time asleep, restless, and awake) instead of sleep stages:

  • If you slept in a position that prevented your device from getting a consistent heart-rate reading or wore it too loosely. For best results, wear your device higher on your wrist (about 2-3 finger widths above your wrist bone). The band should feel secure but not too tight.
  • If you used the Begin Sleep Now option in the Fitbit app. For more information on automatic sleep tracking, see How do I track my sleep with my Fitbit device?
  • If you slept for less than 3 hours.
  • If your device's battery is critically low.

For more information about why you see your sleep pattern, tap or click the sleep record that shows your sleep pattern.
