Fitness, Well-being, and now Sleep—All Your Wellness in One Place
Gentler Streak, this year's Apple Design Award winner for social impact, has evolved from a simple workout tracker into the only wellness management app you really need. The latest update is packed with significant upgrades. It includes a redesigned Wellbeing tab and, most importantly, a brand-new Sleep section.
Today’s topics:
- Sleep Analysis: Tapping on the Sleep card opens the door to a whole new world! Sleep is essential, and we've made it easy to understand and improve yours.
- Sleep Insights: Here to help you understand the whole sleep phenomenon better.
- A Word on Sleep Debt: And why you won’t see it in Gentler Streak
- Wellbeing Upgrade: Yorhart is still grinning at the top, but what's happening below has slightly changed, and there is a new extended health metric—Sleep.
- Unlocking Insights Tab, Personalization and App Icons: With this version, we are making the entire Insights library and profile personalization, as well as app icons, available to all.
Sleep Analysis - our biggest 2024 upgrade
Since February we have been testing various sleep devices and apps, followed by two months of beta testing, to create the best experience for our users, adding a vital layer to our holistic approach to well-being.
- Sleep Quality: Each morning, get a concise description of your sleep quality, including: Sleep duration, Restorative sleep (deep sleep + REM phase), Fall asleep time, Wake-up time and the Sleep stages—consisting of REM, deep, core, and awake time.
You can review sleep quality for the past 14 nights using the calendar picker at the top of the screen.
- Short-term Overview (sleep duration, consistency, and stages): Displaying an overview of recent nights helps you assess your sleep hygiene and identify areas for improvement. Are you going to bed and waking up at relatively the same times? How does that reflect in the distribution of your sleep stages? Learn from your data and tweak your hygiene.
Sleep Insights
Something so natural to humanity but still such a mystery to most of us. We have prepared seven insights on sleep; they should help us understand sleep phenomenon better, its stages, the importance of sleep hygiene, guidance on improving it, etc.
Everyone can access their daily sleep analysis, along with the seven insights on sleep, while previous nights, and Sleep-Overview charts are part of the Gentler Streak Premium.
A Word on Sleep Debt
… or the lack of it in Gentler Streak. As with everything in our app, our sleep approach also focuses on sustainability. While sleep debt is widely popular, it lacks solid scientific backing, and it's more of a patch to the wound than allocating and addressing the source of pain. While testing various sleep devices and apps, we found that the short-term sleep overviews provide better insights into your sleep habits, helping you spot patterns in duration, consistency, and sleep stages so you can improve your sleep hygiene over time. Rather than “repaying” lost sleep by sleeping in on weekends, focusing on consistent sleep hygiene will be more beneficial to your wellbeing. Catching up on sleep doesn’t erase the stress your body endures from lack of sleep during the week. Doing so over time can take a toll on your health. Being aware of your overall sleep hygiene, prioritizing it, and making adjustments can lead to better rest and recovery and have long-term positive effects on your health.
Wellbeing Upgrade
The Well-being tab got some extra love. We have rearranged the layout, split content into two sections, added Sleep and revamped the look of Period.
- Settings: In the top-right corner, customize which metrics appear and their order on the Wellbeing screen.
- Body Metrics Section: Daily health metrics now sit right below your well-being status. Choose between two layouts: the familiar extended view or a brief, more condensed overview.
- Health Section: This includes Sleep and Period tracking, with more categories to come in future updates. We've separated the Body Metrics and Health sections to distinguish straightforward metrics from more complex body processes.
Tapping on the Sleep card in Wellbeing leads you to sleep analysis, where you’ll kick off your sleep journey by setting your 'Sleep Goal.' This helps us understand you better and adjust the feedback to suit your needs.
If You Ask Us, We’d Say
- Wear your Apple Watch while sleeping using native (Apple's) sleep tracking.
- Using multiple sleep tracking devices/apps can lead to data inconsistencies.
- If you use third-party apps that track sleep based on sound, our testing indicated they provide less reliable data compared to tracking with the watch.
- To see complete data in the Gentler Streak Sleep section, you must have at least one recorded sleep session in the last 14 days.
