New sleep changes are terrible

[Catmandel]

I have now 4 hrs sleep; the “other” sleep was 3 hours and the next “other sleep was 1 1/2 hours. Fitbit used to add them all. THIS is not an improvement!!!  It makes it look like I only slept 4 hours last night and is worthless if you want to keep track of how many hours you slept.

Please make this worthless change go back to normal-I hardly think adding 3 numbers on 2 different pages to get some idea of how many hours I slept.

Every change you make, makes me like Fitbit a lot less!

Any chance this will change? After all, if I sleep sporadically, I still want to know the total number of hours slept and I can’t now.

Me too I have too add everything up and edit every day now.

It appears that they don’t get people to let them know ahead of time if anyone even wants it.
Every time I wake up to use the bathroom, it thinks I woke up for too long and logs it was “other” sleep.

I agree…the new sleep changes are atrocious. This is one thing I track religiously and these changes are not meaningful and deem the device useless. If I sleep for 6 hours and happen to get up in the night and go to sleep moments later for another 2 hrs, it now only records 2 hrs of sleep. Very disappointed and now looking at an alternate device.

Hello @Catmandel @fluffola 

Have you had a chance to edit your sleep log in the Fitbit app so that you have one continuous log?

Every now & then, my sleep isn't correctly tracked. When this happens, I edit my sleep start/wake times in the Fitbit app. It used to take a while for the app to update my sleep data, especially the graph. I noticed that after the sleep section was updated, that the my sleep data updates much quicker now.

Just to let you know, you will need to delete the "extra" sleep logs in order to get a single log.

If you would like help on how to do the edits & deleting "extra" sleep logs, please let us know. We'll provide step-by-step instructions.
