Sleep Cycle App

Sleep Cycle App for iPhone

The staples of virtually any fitness plan you’ll come across—physical exercise and nutrition—are fundamental to the plan’s success. Fortunately, the makers of Sleep Cycle know that there’s more to health than meets the eye. Most importantly, the app is designed to help you maximize your fitness by enhancing your experience in the bedroom. No, I’m not talking about that experience.

Using the accelerometer already built into your iPhone, the app monitors the quality of your sleep, and provides you with a report in the morning. And it doesn’t stop there. It uses your sleep data to help you sleep smarter.

The Sleep Cycle Alarm

Before you go to sleep, you’ll input a thirty minute wake-up alarm window. The app won’t simply attempt to wake you up at the beginning of that window. The app will pick the right time when you are not in deep sleep to take action. Usually, when an alarm clock interrupts your deep sleep, you may wake up and feel as though you haven’t slept at all. This is where the Sleep Cycle Alarm comes to the rescue. The alarm will go off at a time during that half hour window when you aren’t in deep sleep, allowing you wake up feeling rested. This is where the app really shines.

TFA Tip

It will take you some time to adjust to a new sleep pattern. Make sure you plan ahead and allow for up to 30 min of extra sleep when you first start using Sleep Cycle. As the app learns more about your sleep habits, it will be able to personalize the experience for your needs.
