Hello everyone,
I’d like to share an idea for a new app designed to enhance sleep management on Garmin’s latest watches, specifically optimized for the Fenix 8. This app aims to improve the wake-up experience by utilizing the advanced sensors in the watch to ensure users wake up at the most natural time, without needing to set alarms manually.
Key Features:
-
Automatic Alarm Based on Sleep Cycles:
- The app automatically sets an alarm after five 90-minute sleep cycles, beginning from when the watch detects you’ve fallen asleep. This helps to ensure a natural, less abrupt wake-up experience.
-
“Bedtime Preparation” Notification:
- If the user has a scheduled event in the calendar or has set a manual alarm, the app sends a notification for the ideal bedtime (30 minutes + 5 sleep cycles before the set wake-up time). This ensures enough time for winding down and completing five sleep cycles.
-
Smart Mode and Customization:
- The app works automatically in the background and activates the smart alarm feature only when there are no calendar events or manual alarms set by the user.
- When calendar events or alarms are set, the app provides an optimal bedtime recommendation, helping the user to get adequate rest for the day ahead.
This app offers a smarter, more personalized approach to wake-up and sleep management, harnessing the full potential of Garmin Fenix's sleep sensors to ensure optimal rest and natural wake-up timing.
