Sleep tracking for Apple Watch series 5 leaked

[Lounge vibes 05]

From 9to5Mac:

“The new feature — codenamed “Burrito” internally and called “Time in Bed tracking” — will allow users to choose to wear Apple Watch to bed. If the user has more than one Apple Watch, they can pick one to be their designated bedtime Watch.
While asleep, the Apple Watch will track the user’s quality of sleep using its multiple sensors and inputs, including the person’s movement, heart rate, and noises. Data about the user’s quality of sleep will be made available in the Health app and a new Sleep app for the Apple Watch.
One of the issues with wearing an Apple Watch during sleep is that many users choose to charge their Apple Watch at night. Apple thought about this and developed a feature that will remind users to charge their Watch beforehand so they can get through the night.
When wearing the Watch during bedtime, if the user wakes up and starts their day before their alarm goes off, it will automatically turn off the alarm. The alarm will also play only on Apple Watch, using the iPhone as a backup. There will also be an option to use a silent alarm that only vibrates the Apple Watch. The new bedtime system will enable Do Not Disturb automatically when the user goes to bed. There will also be a new complication available for sleep tracking.”

One has to wonder what kind of metrics will this produce? I can hardly see the depth of data produced by Auto Sleep, Sleepwatch, or any of the other dedicated apps. Hardly worth an upgrade, unless they include data from an SPo2 sensor, in my opinion.

Maybe I read it wrong but no where in there did it say series 5. Sounds like a new feature for watch os6

In that case, it would have been announced and available for testing in the watchOS 6 preview. It's more likely to be a Series 5 feature.

Excited to see what's announced officially next week!!

Hopefully the battery is much improved then as I charge my AW at night. No point wearing it to sleep if I’ve got to charge it during the day when I’m needing it.

I believe Apple is going to have something in Watch OS to notify people to charge the iphone at a certain time so they have enough power to use the sleep tracking. I don't suspect any real boost in battery until next year or the year after. That's just my opinion.

Since day 1 of series 0 I have slept with my watch on, (I enjoy the vibration awake far more than a blaring alarm somewhere to my right). Charging anytime next to evening TV chair/bed is easy...100% when you put it on, 96-97 when it wakes you, back to 100 while you shower. It better have a way to turn off that "always-on" display...do not want it in my eyes during sleep.
