Sleep Better - Sleep Tracker App Reviews

Now that the update removed all my tracked nights from the app I cant see any of that data anymore because its somewhere on the site. So if you dont have an account dont bother downloading this app, and if you dont have anything other than a basic (free) account like me, also dont bother because I cant find any of my nights on the site without being bombarded by requests to update my account to a premium one that costs money. Will be deleting this app. It was a fantastic app while it lasted but now all these nights that I tracked these past several months are gone and now Ill be looking for another sleep tracking app that doesnt have so many catches to it, specifically like requiring a paid account in order to even see any of your data in the first place.

When I first started using this app, it was great. But in the past few weeks, I have woken up almost every morning after the alarm because it either wasnt loud enough to hear, or it just didnt go off at all (you can tell by checking your notifications; if there arent any from Sleep Better, then the alarm didnt sound). This morning after realizing that the alarm never even sounded, I deleted the app. I loved the concept, but it clearly needs a lot more work.

I had originally used my Fitbit to track my sleep, but it only gave cursory statistics (how long you were asleep or restless, etc.) - I saw this app and immediately loved the premise, of knowing when I was in deep or heavy sleep and how the cycles changed throughout the night. I also especially liked that the app tries to wake you up when youre in a period of light sleep, because it makes the wake up much less jarring - the first night I used it it was almost like I hadnt even been sleeping at all when it woke me up, so Ive got proof that it works. I bought the premium version after that first night and Ive loved it since. Update 1: I changed my review from 5 stars to 4 for a simple reason. Id like to be able to track more categories than they have listed for possible sleep habit patterns (working out, an unfamiliar bed, etc.) - I understand that having TOO many categories will lead to impossibilities in correlation, but I was hoping that there would be more categories added as time goes on.

As an app it should be good but the only reason stopping it its because it no good putting any kind of electronic device under your pillow,it may cause cancer or other things... I dont recommend people to download the app

So I ALWAYS use this app, and I love tracking how much sleep Im getting and how it affects my days. And because of this constant use, I decided to splurge the $1.99 and get the other features plus no ads! (What I was most looking forward towards). And I dont know if Im stupid of sow thing, but its not working! I updated the app, Im not sure what else to do :(

Good app but have not used others so cannot accurately compare.

It seems that nobody cares about bugs and errors that happen in the UI. You pay for an app that is never updated or fixed. Well, I most certainly will sleep better without your help.

Very useful and simple to use.

I love how it tells your sleep efficiency!

All was good in the world of my sleep, until it was time to wake up. It got me up nicely and without incident, but when when I hit the "stop" button to turn off the alarm, nothing happened. I tried switching apps, locking and unlocking my phone, but nothing worked. I ended up having to close the app entirely and reopen it to stop the alarm, and thankfully it came up and told me it had an unsaved sleep session for me to review so I didnt lose my record for the night.

If you love to be persistently harassed by in-App ads, you will LOVE this App. Deleted!

Very neat. Insightful too after you collect enough statistics to give you trends. Wish there was a few more explanations on the various icons in the summary screen (including the zzzz icon which is used with 2 different meanings, one is easy to figure out, the other isnt). Of course only challenge is when you sleep with a partner his movements are also recorded, so cant always be sure of accuracy.

But some weird interface things, the % and hrs on the stats page seem to be reversed, and the dream section, even though you can scroll up the page, its stuck in a tiny little window that needs to be scrolled through, its awkward but not terrible. Over all really cool though! I like that it shows how long it takes to fall asleep, but I wish I showed that on the insights page with all the factors. And its cool with the moon cycles and the dream ratios. Most nice and handy thing though is the alarm, its great not waking up in the middle of deep sleep! That also used to be an major downer for mornings but dont have that problem now

This app has the first alarm music that woke me up without hating the alarm and smashing my iPad to the ground. Its awesome to be honest. Get it

Really like this app - it works great. I wish it included a few more factors like sleep aids.

This is an incredible app! It has helped me track my sleep, and figure out when I sleep best, so I can always be asleep then. I only have one complaint with this app, and that is that the alarms are very calm, and quiet. I am a heavy sleeper so I usually have to set another alarm to wake me up just incase the first one didnt. That is my only complaint with the app. My favourite part of the app is when you wake up, an it asks you how you slept, how you feel, etc. It also tells you the weather, and you can record I you had a good dream, or a bad dream, and what it was. I would defiantly recommend this app, to anyone! Try it for free! Its great!

I love sleep better. I wake up every morning feeling good and rested. Its also really interesting to see the graphics of my sleep cycles.

Running great on iphone4. I slept 10 hrs straight but was still tired. Apparently i wasnt still for 5 min. Now i know why i was tired. Thx Sleep better. Amazing app
