Does the sleep time for each night include awake times during the night?

If I sleep for 6 hrs a night and an awake for 1 your is that 7 hours of recommended sleep.

I don't think so. Physically you sleep 6 hours, there are definite processes in your body, when you are awake for that 1 hour there are some other processes added. So I think you still lack 1 hour of sleep.

Hello @anaximenes, @stillc Welcome to the community forums! @stillc Thank you very much for your input and I'm glad to see you around! 

@anaximenes Your time asleep is calculated by subtracting your time spent awake and restless from your overall tracked sleep time. For example, if you slept 8 hours but woke up 2 times for 15 minutes each, your time asleep would be 7 hr 30 min.
