Sleep Tracking Issues

Unfortunately the latest beta has made the sleep start/end detection worse than before. This morning the watch continued recording sleep after I had stopped it manually, and after I had corrected it on Garmin Connect.

I created a post on the beta forum

It looks like the only way to avoid these sleep detection issues is to NOT wear the watch, unless recording an activity. That would be really bad.

Yeah that will be bad for high end watch like this  Let’s keep finger crossed for new software .

I noticed that too. Corrections made in GC still don't sync with the watch. The only workaround is taking the watch off after waking up and not wearing it while in a relaxed state. For me, the algorithm hasn't been this bad in forever.

This is mine from last night . Even though I stopped tracking sleep in the morning at 6:00 am . Why it was still tracking ..

If you want to stop your sleep tracking just go into the sleep widget on your wach and you will get the option to stop sleep tracking.

I did stopped it after the morning report . Why does it have to be done twice ..

Deep sleep can be determined fairly accurately due to HR, however REM and Light is almost impossible to distinguish without an EEG and visual observations.

I was talking about 1:45 awake that counted as sleep also at 6:49 am . 

unless have vigorous movement or HR is high enough it will likely still count a wake peirod as light/rem sleep cause there is nothing really to indicate you are awake.

I looked up Garmin tech site . Watch goes by sleep schedule and it doesn’t stop tracking if you are awake .

Unless there is some vigorous movement it won’t stop tracking sleep before the sleep window.

May be the new software fixes sleep tracking.
