Sleep results without wearing Fitbit Force

[REMlessAl]

I know I have sleep issues but I didn't expect my Force to indicate just over 2 hours of restful sleep a night.

Last night I decided to activate the sleep monitor without wearing my Force to bed.  The results were the same... 2 hours 22 mins of sleep.  Does anyone know how that is possible?

Thanks

All you are doing when you set the timer and don't wear it Fitbit it gives you your BMR. When you set the sleep timer and wear the Fitbit it waits for a predetermined amount of no activity and assumes you are asleep and then records the movements.

This feature has confused others over the last few years because they set the timer to measure an activity, have a period of non activity and when they turn the timer off there is no log in the activities. It has gone into the Sleep area and that is why we can reverse a sleep record to an activity record.

Hope this helps and maybe you are having blissful sleep. You can edit the sleep record and change it from Normal to Sensitive after you have recorded sleep and analyse the sleep period. It does not affect future sleep records.
