Sleep Tracking Forerunner 245

I have had my Forerunner 245 Music for 3 weeks. I am having a real issue with it not tracking my sleep. I have adjusted all settings on the App and made sure everything is turned on the watch itself. I always wear it, unless its charging. 

Since Day 1 it has never tracked my sleep. Very disappointed considering the amount of money I spent on this watch.

Does anyone else have any advice re this issue.

    There is no sleep tracking on this device. It was announced but never implemented. You get some fictitious statistics in Garmin Connect, but there is no science behind it.

    Garmin does have the right algorithm on some watches but they've refused to bring it to the Forerunner 245, believing every dollar earned selling garbage can be doubled by selling an updated watch with the same promises, which is the FR 255. 

    For sleep tracking, you need a Fitbit, but that platform has big shortcomings in the sports department. Sadly, there is no perfect watch...
