Request for an 'intermediate' sleep sensitivity setting in a future update

I've been using my Charge HR for several months now, and I really like it. However, one area that I think could be improved is the sleep tracking.

 

If I set it to 'normal' it does a good job of tracking how long I've been in bed, but always over-estimates my actual sleep. For example, if I sit up and read for an hour it counts that as being asleep. If I set it to 'sensitive' it seems to count every slight movement as me being awake, so it massively underestimates my sleep. I'd like a setting in between, so it detects periods of actual wakefulness and restlessness but register small movements as being awake. Is this something that a future firmware update could include?

Not sure what fitbit has up their sleeves..

 

Feel free to add your suggestions to the 'Feature Requests' Sub Forum, where users can vote, add comments,.. if there's a certain interest then there's a chance the developers pick it up and it'll be developed.

Totally agree with this. Normal mode tells me I fall asleep within 3 minutes (not even close) and sleep like a rock. About the only time it measures me as restless is if I actually, physically get out of bed for a few minutes.

 

Sensitive mode, on the other hand, tells me I'm asleep less than a quarter of the time I'm in bed. While this is probably closer to my actually sleep than Normal mode gets me, it's still pretty far from the truth.

 

Maybe they could even combine the modes, and then calculate levels of restlessness, rather than just asleep, restless, or awake.
