Sleep data interpretation

[JeanetteLM]

Fit bit Is seriously lacking in the area of sleep interpretation.  They offer this tool to track your sleep, but no information on how to understand it. So frustrating.  I've had my Fit bit for a year. I sleep horribly.  Last night I had 59 minutes of restless/awake. This is not abnormal for me and I'm always tired.  But without an understanding of the data it's basically useless.

Hi @JeanetteLM,

A good place to start is  selecting the Benchmark tab in the app. That will show you how you compare to others of your  gender and age.

@JeanetteLM I understand what you are saying, but nothing on Fitbit is meant to interpret or suggest anything. It is data that you can use to improve whatever areas you feel need improvement. It is just a read out of what you do or don't do. So as far as sleep goes, it is telling you how you are sleeping. You say you know you are awake during the night and you are exhausted. Looking at your history are there some nights that you sleep better- is there anything about that night or day that was different than the nights you slept worse.. this is the information it is giving you. The what to do with it is up to you.

It just tracks and reports so you can see how you're doing and what, if anything, you need to pay more attention to.
