Missing first few hours of sleep

[claire1390]

A few times in the past couple of weeks, I have gone to bed (and fell asleep) between 9-10:30pm, but my Fitbit hasn't started tracking me as "asleep" at all until 1-2am. I know for a fact I was sound asleep long before then, so not sure why the Fitbit isn't picking up on that? Anyone else experienced this?

Hi @claire1390 Welcome to the forums. I've seen that happen a time or two. Easy way to fix it after the fact is to delete the auto entry and manually add the start and stop times for your sleep and Fitbit will populate the data for the entire time. I'm not sure why this happens, but I hope this tip helps.

I'm sorry to be so dumb about the tech/app, but how does one do that? It's not obvious to me.
