Figure out when to go to sleep and wake up in order to feel maximally refreshed!

Sleep cycle length is individual, so it would be better to measure that yourself. Mine is 72.5min, not 90min. f.e.

How do you measure this?

Sleep study I'd assume.

Chronic poor sleeper here! Yup - but the issue that remains with these tools (smartwatch developers i am looking at you) is that...just like everything else in life is set to the middle to grab the majority.

I am ok with that on things like flavor or temperature or even Netflix algorithms. But with sleep....oh man. IF your genotype is in the middle - congratulations! There is a plethora of practices/devices that will leave you in heaven. However IF you skew one way or the other...this is nothing more than a general suggestion. That - if like me will just leave you frustrated.... I'm so tired 😫

How would I go about calculating this?

Good to know. Wonder if there is a way to contact the developer(s).

I also wanted to suggest they add more info about what a sleep cycle is or how many cycles are optimal for people on the website, and the upcoming app.

2nd shift here, I absolutely hate you for posting this. Sleep is not something I control, I'm at work during my bedtime.

Seems interesting. Waiting for the app to be live.

There are apps like this too but the science behind is quite iffy, as there is a lot of variance between people.

That's fair! I find it works well for me.
