Good morning everyone I hope you’re all well. I have an Apple Watch series 5 and I was curious if they have a sleep tracker that doesn’t cost money? Anyone know of one? Thank you in advance
Got a tip for us?

No, your best bet is to get AutoSleep. The other popular options have a subscription model. AutoSleep is a one time purchase. And it’s the most reliable. It’s not be prettiest app, but it works.

AutoSleep recommendation from me aswell.
I brought myself a cheap S1 a couple of years back to wear at night and put AutoSleep on it. Never once regretted that decision.
I'm currently using Pillow (the free version) and I'm not sure how accurate it is, if watchOS 7 gets built-in sleep tracking I'll use that, but if not I'll likely buy AutoSleep after hearing so many good thing about it on this forum.
Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I did end up downloading the AutoSleep. Last night was my first night using it and I think it did a good job
After a few days of use and calibrating, the job it does is pretty much perfect if you ask me. Good choice IMO!
I just went to check out Autosleep and realized I had already purchased it... I remember why I uninstalled it: When I get into bed at night I will usually read a Kindle for 1-2 hours. So, I barely move, and the app always recorded me as sleeping during that time and so it just wasn't accurate for me.
But this... Using Siri could be perfect if that activates it...
There is a "Lights Out" feature on Autosleep that will do just what you need. I use it on the watch, just pop up autosleep, scroll down to the bottom, and tap "Lights Out". I starts tracking from there.
That’s what the Lights off feature is for. Also, you just have to edit out the time you didn’t sleep. But really Lights Off is the first line of defense, so to speak. The. When you wake up do a Breathe session so your wake up time is accurate too.
