How does my Charge 2 record when I actually fall asleep

[Asclepias]

My Fitbit records my sleep initiation an hour or more after I go to bed. My sleep setting is at normal. I toss around a lot at first but I’m sure I have fallen asleep before it says I have. Does this have to do with heart rate having to reach a particular level?

Hi @Asclepias Welcome to the forum. Your tracker uses a combination of movement and heart rate information to auto identify your sleep pattern. You can also start this manually if you feel you are getting close to following asleep, to get a more accurate start time and/or you can alter the time you fell asleep after the fact, and thus your sleep data would be updated. Hope that helps.

Thanks MarciM,
How do I set my sleep time after the fact?

Log into your dashboard via a Web browser, hover your mouse over the sleep pane (the square with the sleep data) and toward the bottom of the pane you should see a gear icon and 'see more'. Click there and you will be taken to a new view of only sleep data and on your right you will see 'Sleep Log' from there you can edit start and end time.

I don' even get that far - my Charge 2 doesn't bother recording the sleep at all.
