The sleep recorder is completely wrong.

The sleep recorder is completely wrong. I have to switch between a normal 21:30-07:00 time frame for two or three days, then back into my midnight shift sleeping usually 15:30-22:00. It shows me "24 hours of sleep" because it never updates my sleep times. I change the times in my user settings once my schedule changes and it never works correctly. Is there a way to remove the need for your typical sleep hours and the watch can detect on its own. My last Samsung watch 2 years ago did it that way. It just knew, no need to put in your normal sleep times

The window is not used for "when you are sleeping" based on documentation.

"Your watch's behavior will change during set sleep times. This may change how the display, backlight, notifications, and other features work. Your watch will use Firstbeat Sleep Detection to determine when you are sleeping."

Thank you, I did not know about the sleep detection or how it differed from the sleep window manually entered for notifications. I still have an issue with the watch showing I slept 34 hours with all the data in it. Including when I did a strength session or run within that time frame. I guess it is just a poorly made sleep detection.

Yeah, can't help on that, sorry. But having that sleep window makes it kind of misleading for what it's for.

The pink yesterday I was awake, took my wife and kids out to eat, did yard work, etc. And the watch is showing REM. How can this be fixed?

The watch thinks it was all a dream?

Did you wake the watch up from "sleeping"

I have noticed if my sleep is short, if one goes to one of the widgets that shows "sleeping" it give one the option to end sleep.

I agree this is less than ideal , but it may be a work around for you.

Also I see this FW shows that daily sleep schedules are being implemented , are you running this version or later of the FW that lets you set individual daily sleep schedules? This may assist in the case you describe.
