sleep detection when i sleep longer than planned?

If I have sleep schedule set in garmin from 10 p.m to 5 a.m, but sometimes i sleep longer like to 8 a.m, what should i do to make fenix 7 count this additional 3 hours to sleep data?

If alarm rings at 5 a.m., I should change sleep schedule in settings and go to sleep again?

This has no sense, whay garmin devs can not detect it automatically by heart rate for example or hand movements and make software to automatically add some time to sleep?

It is possible for example in samsung galaxy 5

Sleep tracking with the Galaxy Watch 5 can be performed in a few ways. The easiest, most basic method is to simply wear the watch to bed. The Galaxy Watch 5 will automatically detect when you begin to nod off, recording your sleep cycles without additional input (unlike previous Samsung smartwatches).

So does it mean samsung devs are much smarter and intelligent than garmin devs?

Nothing provided you continue to sleep. Think of the schedule as a guide, not as a directive. You can go to sleep earlier or later than set and get up earlier or later, usually without any problems.

ok, so if my schedule is 10pm to 6 am, but sometimes i cant sleep at night and go to run at 4 am. how is sleep phases and body battery calculated now?

In exactly the same way. Your scheduled sleep time allows the watch to place more focus on sleep detection during that period but continues to detect sleep outside of the scheduled sleep period.

Im facing a similar issue. My sleep schedule is setup between 11pm to 6am. If I decide to turn off the alarm go to sleep longer, the device fails to track sleep after 6am.

I don't use the alarm, but I can sleep longer than my "sleep window".

and the sleep tracking is accurate? Does it calculate the sleep outside the scheduled window?

0 KrapfenKringel over 1 year ago in reply to SD

Yes it works pretty well for me. As long as my heartrate is down it thinks I'm sleeping. And when I'm up and about it's usually higher.

Unless I am sick with a higher heartrate and get better during the day and then have my lowest point in heartrate, the detection is fine for me.

But yes the whole alarm thing could stop it, never tried it. But when you hit the start button during your sleep window the watch asks if you want to end sleep.

I also slept longer than normal today.
Yes, the alarm clock rang and I turned it off and went back to sleep.
After getting up, it also correctly indicated that I woke up briefly at the set time and the entire new sleep time was recorded.... completely without sleep schedule.

Glad to hear that. Would you mind sharing more info on your device set up?

1. What is the sleep schedule you have setup in GC?

2. What is the alarm you have setup?

3. Do you use Sleep Mode?

4. Do you have Morning Report Enabled?

5. Are you on Version 13.22?

In GCM I entered my sleep data from the Fenix 6, so.

1. daily from 22.30 - 6.00 o'clock (also for Sunday)
2. alarm clock daily except Sunday > 6.00 o'clock
3. no
4. morning report deactivated
5. beta 14.26

Last night I was in bed at 22.15.
According to the clock, I fell asleep yesterday at 22.37, woken up by the alarm clock at 6, got up at 6.54
