Sleep tracker glitch?

[bittercold]

Last night I wore my band as normal and set it for sleep tracking mode. Went to sleep and woke up this morning to it saying that I slept 0 minutes last night. I synced it with the app and it showed that it recorded during the time I slept (HR) and showed time but said I was awake the whole time. Has this happened to anyone else? I will try it again tonight and report my finding tomorrow. Thanks.

I haven't seen that. I'm pretty sure that the band gauges "sleep" by the lack of motion. Could there be any motion with your sleeping place?

Hmmm maybe too much light... Idk will test it tonight.

I've never seen it not track sleep at all. Assume the battery had enough charge, right?

I do wonder how the band differentiates between light sleep and restful sleep - HR maybe?

Well like I said it recorded for all of the six hour saying I was awake. I tested it out last night and it seems to work now. Very interesting. I know that the other night my wife left a lamp on all night so maybe the ambient light makes it assume I was awake?
