Just curious what is typical! Mine is usually anywhere from 20 minutes on a bad night to an hour and 20 minutes on a good night. My average is 37 minutes which feels not great.

Just curious what is typical for others?

I’m averaging 1 hour and 11 min. But I’m not sure how accurate it is

[–] Comfortable_End1350@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

40-50 minutes if I’m lucky. Sometimes 30.

I came here just now to post a similar question. I was wondering how accurate the sleep tracker is. Using the sleepwatch app, it shows I rarely get above 4 hours per night. The built in Health app typically shows 1 hour more each night for some reason.

Makes me wonder if I have a real issue with sleep or if it's tracking wrong. your thoughts?

There’s an amazing YouTube channel that covers how good the sleep tracking is for the Apple Watch, compared to medical equipment. Here’s his review of the Apple Watch 9

[–] SeapracticeRep@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nice! Very interesting! Many thanks from a fellow Hufflepuff

[–] imme629@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

My average is 44

[–] Gutinstinct999@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m 44 and my average is 57 min

[–] MDK1980@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Average 12mins over the last 6 months.

[–] andrew_a7@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Around 2h30 out of 7 with Autosleep.

[–] Thats-nice-smile@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Don’t think I have gotten more than 45min with an average of 8h

[–] GreatDealzz@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lol me too... hang in there

[–] Maironad@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

20-30 minutes

[–] Kaessa@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Using Autosleep, I usually get 0-45 minutes of deep sleep a night. Last night, for some bizarre reason, I got 2.5 hours. I slept HARD.

I usually average about 20 minutes.

[–] Sway_RL@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes each night

[–] Snoo52211@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Apple watch sleep tracking is utter bullshit. Dont use it.

[–] rrohweder@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Average of 7 hours asleep, 35 min deep over the past month. 70 yrs old.

[–] mahpah34@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

1h 36min last night. Never went below 1h. I’m pretty sure having good de-stress routine before bed helps. I usually do some stretching after shower.

[–] startingagain13@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Iv had from 4 minutes to an hour and 30 but mostly not much! Like 30 mins

[–] amyjandrews@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

49 minutes average.

[–] Hay-blinken@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don’t seem to get enough deep sleep. According to my watch. I average around 20. But overall I seem to sleep well.

[–] jayplus707@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

30-50 minutes. Never exceeds an hour.

[–] RecycledAccountName@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Like 45 mins. Similar for REM. I'm like 75% core :-(

I also average like 8 mini wake ups.

[–] jszzsj@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

1 hr to 1 hr 30 typically. Just an fyi to anyone that is questioning the data. I have three sleep trackers. Oura, eight sleep and apple watch. Oura always shows the highest deep sleep Eight sleep and apple watch are very close numbers but occasionally apple watch will show slightly lower deep sleep numbers.

I would say if apple watch is showing ~ 1 hr you are getting enough deep sleep. Any lower is probably a little on the low side.

[–] ExceptionHandlr@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Well, my 6 month average of deep sleep is 0 minutes lol. In the last month I’ve averaged 8 minutes. I’m convinced this is wrong because I’m not tired when I wake up, nor do I feel exhausted during the day. But it drives me crazy seeing less than 10 minutes every night.

[–] alexg240171@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Sleep cycle is better than autosleep….( tested by the quantified scientist)

[–] Own_Worldliness_9297@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Garmin is much more accurate with Deep Sleep figures than Apple.

[–] Never_enough_Dolf@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Have had my watch a month.

38 minutes average a night, average sleep 5 hour 35 minutes

[–] Shobed@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Averaging, 47 minutes.

[–] mli@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

6 months average 12 mins, my sleep sucks.

[–] Dogfood2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Zero! Apple Watch 6. I can go weeks and maybe get a sliver of a moment of deep sleep to register. I’m convinced something is wrong with the algorithm or the sensor or whatever. Seems strange that I never have any deep sleep. I’m a normal, healthy middle aged guy. Yes, I’ve talked to my doctor.

[–] ClungeWhisperer@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Id be lucky to get more than half an hour.

[–] Strong-Estate-4013@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

30-50 minutes, if I sleep well 1h

[–] Rom2814@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

50-70 minutes.

I used to get 20-30 minutes. Stopped drinking and get 30-60 minutes of exercise per day now - took a few months for my brain to catch up but both deep sleep and REM more than doubled.

[–] IBQC@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I averaged 55 minutes over the last week. I really only concern myself with time spent not awake.

[–] kbstock@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Average a nice round 30 minutes this last month

[–] Avazoooo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

around 40-50 minutes as a healthy 18 year old that does high intensity exercise daily and eats well

[–] No_Computer_3432@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Anywhere from 0 minutes on a bad night to 35 minutes on a good night ?? no idea why

[–] WhoWho22222@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don’t wear my watch at night but I can tell you that I sleep like crap most nights. 😂

[–] SaschaStorm@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Only got 5 hours of sleep tonight with 1h 40 mins of deep sleep. Pretty good! Average is an hour and five.

[–] LittleJimmyR@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Last night I got an hour, Wednesday night I got 45 mins and on Friday I got an hour and a half
