If the FitBit senses you moving around (tossing and turning, changing sleeping positions) it marks that as restless sleep. A full night of that, and you aren't going to be well rested in the morning...

 

Not sure on this, but I imagine if you go a long period with no movement it would mark that as deep sleep.

I've had sleep tests done, and the FitBit matches the results of the doctor's tests, so it's pretty reliable. If you are getting "restless" feedback, you may want to check in w/ your doctor to see if you should have a sleep test performed. Sleeping w/ a machine can make a world of difference in your life, especially energy!  Good luck!

I'm new to fitbit and all the feedback information it provides about my sleep, restlessness and activity but I'm not sure how I benefit from knowing I had 29 restless moments last night.  What do I do with this information?
