How to use
- Choose whether you want the best bedtime or the best wake-up time.
- Set your fixed time and how long it usually takes you to fall asleep (default 15 minutes).
- Pick one of the suggested options — more cycles means deeper, more refreshing rest.
Note: Each cycle is 90 minutes. Results step back or forward in whole cycles from your time, minus fall-asleep time. General information only, not medical advice — talk to a doctor if you have a sleep problem.
Tips
- Most adults feel best with 5 to 6 cycles (about 7.5 to 9 hours in bed).
- Keep the same wake-up time every day, even on weekends — it trains your body clock.
- Dim screens 30 minutes before bed so the fall-asleep time stays short.
