How to Track Sleep using Samsung Gear Fit [Manual & Automatic]

In Fitness, it is not just working out vigorously but also the amount of rest and sleep that you are giving to your body to rejuvenate your muscles, and mind plays an important role in getting into proper fitness and shape.
The galaxy Gear Fit will use the Sleep application to monitor your Sleep patterns and records how much sleep you are getting by detecting periods of no body movements for one minute in the Automatic mode.

Let us first get some insight on how the Sleep application works in gear Fit, there are two modes of recording your sleep in Gear fit Sleep Application – Manual mode and Automatic mode.

In Manual mode, you need to click on the “Start” button when you are going to sleep and after you wake up from your nap click on the “Stop” button which will then record the duration of your sleep.

In Automatic mode that should be set will automatically record your sleep cycles on its own without clicking anything before or after you sleep. Your gear fit will detect the lack of body movements for one minute and starts the Timer. If you are sleeping for less than 2 hours and wake up in 30 minutes the sleep cycle is not recorded.

How to Record Sleep Duration in Manual mode

On your Gear Fit Home screen, you have to Scroll the screen to the left or right which will take you to the Sleep App. In the Sleep App, you can see 3 options “Start” with a green color half moon on the left and Sleep-check sleep data in the middle and Back button on the right side.
