Garmin devices should be able to track naps

Many brands have built nap tracking functionality into their wearables. For some reason Garmin devices only have the ability to track on sleep session per day. This is unsatisfactory - particularly now that sleep stats play such a important function in the newly added Training Readiness score. For those that like to supplement a overnight sleep session with a long afternoon nap, the Training Readiness is consistently underestimating their actual ability to train. Please Garmin add the ability to track naps - even if it is just a simple timer (without sleep phases).

  • It would be a great feature if Garmin devices could track naps! While Garmin devices can track sleep, including deep and light sleep stages, they typically don't recognize naps as separate sleep events. However, if you nap long enough, Garmin might capture it as part of your nightly sleep data.

    To track naps more accurately, some people use the "start" and "stop" sleep tracking feature manually, or use Garmin's "Body Battery" feature to monitor energy levels throughout the day. It’s possible that Garmin could add a dedicated nap tracking feature in future updates. If you'd like, I can help look into current Garmin features to see how well they might track your naps with the existing functionalit
