Add custom notes to Sleep Log or Rate Sleep

[kmc777]

In order to effectively use the sleep log to improve sleep quality, I think it might be helpful to be able to annotate each log entry with comments about things that might affect sleep quality (eg alcohol consumption, use of sleeping tablet, late caffeine intake, late exercise, meditation/ relaxation, consumption of unusual foods etc). Then, on review of several weeks/ months of sleep logs, patterns may become evident.

I also want this, So I can track when/which sleeping pills are working for me. Along with how late I can play video games and stuff. For now I will find a calendar app. I it should be easy to implement this. Not sure what fitbit has been doing this whole time really.

[VRES]

Totally agree. Does the FitBit community/IT see all these responses?

Absolutely. I want to see the effectiveness of a sleeping pill, from the time I took it to the duration of effectiveness, etc.

As much as I like this idea, I would like to see a separate user log to annotate changes such as diet, medications, etc, and to see this cross-referenced to all graphs. Not just sleep. Weight, resting HR, etc.

I wholeheartedly agree. I spent 10 minutes looking for any sort of  note/journal feature which I assumed would exist, and was surprised when I finally realized it is not currently part of the app.

Agree with the other commenter who suggested there are two things people seem to want, simple tags and verbose notes. I want simple, consistent tags I can add to my nights so I know if something happened or not, and then in retrospect can understand how it affects my sleep. Example: my cat sometimes sleeps on my, sometimes on my partner - I’d simply tag “cat” when she’s on me. Or I sometimes braid my hair - do I sleep better or worse when “Braided hair” tag is on a night?

I would like to be able to tag activity...for example I didn't walk today
because the temp was 28 degrees

[Asking4it]

Love this idea.  I want this feature as well.

I have been noticing the days when I meditate, I sleep much better. As of right now I cannot see the days I meditated, I wish I could add notes to my sleep log to know when I meditated and how it affected my sleep. I also take medicine for my sleep and can’t see how my medicine is affecting my sleep throughout the weeks.

We need this, great suggestion! 

[Massillon]

Yes, I would like to know how my sleep is affected by a sleeping pill or aches and pains or relationships, etc. AND under activities I would like to know why I didn;t walk that day...no note, no excuse. With a note I can indicate if the weather was the reason or maybe I didn't feel well, or maybe I was too busy.

Being able to add notes to a sleep log would be a game changer.  Probably going to leave fitbit altogether and move to another sleep tracker unless they add a notes feature.  Like what is the point of looking at the trends on fitbit if we can't add a note to know WHAT made that night sleep good (eg drank alcohol this night, took melatonin this night, etc).  FITBIT PLEASE ADD THIS!

Bonkers that this still does not exist after years of users asking to add.  Would be such an easy feature to add in the app.

[Massillon]

Exactly!

[gohlson]

Okay, 4 years for a feature to be under consideration is way too long, even for Google. Could you please give us an update on this feature as it would really help us to track within the application events that impact the duration and quality of our sleep each night. 

[VRES]

I agree!! Been years that I’ve asked for this feature.

will this ever see the light of day? I don't understand why having a product feedback section if none will ever be implemented. Btw I'm considering moving to Whoop just because of the sleep notes feature.

[VRES]

I agree. Why such a problem to add this feature?? Been requesting it for years now!

I’d like the ability add a simple note to my daily sleep log/score.
