The app doesn’t actually control anything, it just walks you through an instruction as if you’ve never used the product and makes you watch a video every time. If you accidentally hit next after the 15 minutes, you have to back out and restart. Who developed this put absolutely no thought.

The app was ok before, but the latest update a few days ago both buries the most interesting info from sleep sessions way down the page and also just doesn’t work. The UI designers seem to think that the most important thing is now how long my “streak” is, rather than the actual sleep data. Also, for them, my “morning check in” journal entry is the second most important thing. They feel the third most important thing is some AI slop summary of my sleep session. The _actual_ data I want to see first, the sleep stage graph, is now the 8th thing. The stage breakdown is now 9th. Please fix the UI by at the very least making the order of data user configurable rather than stroking the UX designers ego. Also, had no problems syncing sessions prior to the update, but after update it either has no memory of recent sessions or displays an “error fetching data” dialog on the most recent day.

I’m exceptionally pleased with the headband, the app, and the performance. I did contact the company even before I had received the headband to make sure I could return it, I was that skeptical.. The data this app provides is really really useful and has revolutionized not only my sleep, but also my attitude towards it. No longer am I an anxious, trying to choose between which sleep aid, with a chemical, herbal, OTC or prescription I am going to be taking, because last night didn’t work.
