Go to Bed Notification

[Reil]

Somebody already wrote about this idea in a vague sort of way. With the new update and the sleep goal, I think it can be implemented easily. I'd like to to get a little bit more specific. 

Fitbit can use the data for the sleep goal to prompt a notification for when I should go to bed.

Here's how:

Users in the "go to bed notification" selects how much earlier he/she wants to be notificated. 30 minutes? 1 hours? or even more (anybody adapts to his/her bed routine). From the next alarm subtract the sleep goal and the time set by the user. 

Ex. Next alarm at 6 am. I want to achieve a goal of 7 hr of sleep and be prompted 1 hr before going to bed. My fitbit should vibrate at 10pm with a message telling me "Stop whatever you're doing! It's time to sleep! "  🙂

Obviously it only works if you have alarm set on a fitbit, and if you put a sleep goal in your application.

Since Fitbit knows how sleep-deprived I am, and what time I usually wake up, why can't my watch/mobile app remind me that I need to go to sleep at night?

It can also include a "total sleep debt" display as well showing up on devices with screens

Thanks

I'd like to add a bit more to this idea. Fitbit added a sleep goal with the latest update.

I think they can use it to prompt a notification for when I should go to bed.

@Reil This is a great idea! I can see this feature potentially helping users be more consistent with their sleeping schedules and help users receive more sleep in general. I will be sure to relay your feature request to our team for review.

Thanks for posting on the Feature Request Board!

I'm glad that you liked it 🙂

A small update. I've found this website that I'd love to see integrated in Fitbit: http://sleepyti.me/

It can tell when to go to sleep according to sleep cycles (90 minutes every cycle) and it also consider 15 minutes that on average, a person needs before falling asleep.
