    I think this comes back to the whole, not everything is for everyone thing. For me, it just gives insight into how my sleep went and motivates me to try and stay asleep a little longer, as I have issues staying asleep. But I can definitely see how it could adversely affect others.

      Surely you know if you slept well, though? Like I can definitely tell the difference, the body gives a lot of signals. Unless you have significant health problems, the preparation for getting a good sleep and developing a long-term healthy sleep pattern is pretty universal and well understood.

        It’s like cooking a steak. Yes, most people get it right and don’t poison themselves, but some people have thermometers and make sure their steak is cooked to perfection.

      not everything is for everyone

      Big time. I’ve been training pretty hard recently, which means my sleep is critical. My watch doesn’t have a sleep “score” feature, but being able to track how much and how well I’ve slept in addition to how I feel when I wake up is pretty useful.

        I’m the same. I take working out pretty seriously, so I like to see when I’m getting enough sleep for proper recovery or why when I wake up I feel like my legs are proper heavy. The watch has been a great help for me.
