Your Pixel Watch is getting better at tracking sleep. Google announced that the watch will now track how long you spend in light sleep, deep sleep, and REM sleep. The watch will also tell you how many times you woke up during the night and how long it took you to fall back asleep. The new features are available on the Android Wear 2.0 update for the Pixel Watch. The update is available now on Google Play and the App Store. ..
The way Sleep Profiles work is that your Pixel Watch will give you one every month after closely monitoring how you sleep through several weeks. To get one, you must sleep with your watch on during 14 continuous days, and the more you sleep with it, the more accurate the analysis will be. If you get started today (November 16), you’ll get your first score on December 1.
Sleep Profiles will focus on several factors, including variations in your sleep schedule, sleep disruptions, and time before sound sleep to tell you what kind of “Sleep Animal” (yes, you even get a silly nickname) you are, and how well you sleep. You’ll need a Fitbit Premium subscription in order to get access to this, but once you have that, you’ll be able to get much better insight into how you sleep.
The feature can help you gain insight on how you sleep and make you aware of potential problems that you might want to look out about. This is probably not enough on its own to make you buy a Pixel Watch given its disadvantages, but if you happen to buy one and you have a subscription, you might want to give it a shot.
