Sleep tracking error

[kate2020]

My Fitbit starts tracking my sleep pattern when I sit down to watch tv at night as early as 7pm even though I don't actually go to bed until after 11pm.  Previously it worked just fine tracking my sleep the minute I hit the bed.  How do I fix it?

Hi @kate2020 

I found some interesting information in this link:

https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1314?q=sleep+tracking&l=en_US&fs=Search&pn=1

When your body is completely at rest and you haven’t moved for about an hour, your Fitbit device records that you’re asleep. 

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE NORMAL AND SENSITIVE SLEEP SETTING?

For devices that record sleep patterns instead of sleep stages, you can set your device to track sleep in a normal or sensitive mode.

In normal mode, when you make significant movements like rolling over, your device records time spent awake. This setting is appropriate for most users. In sensitive mode, your device records nearly all movements as time spent restless or awake. This setting may be helpful if you wake up feeling tired even though your sleep history shows sufficient rest.

I hope this helps!
