Which apps have genuinely improved your sleep?
- Uroš GucunjaUser Experience | Biohacking & Startups · WrittenProbably the best app out there for Android. Works great with my Xiaomi Band 2. The "Smart alarm" feature works like magic waking me up in the most optimal time. Also couldn't get out of the bed without a having to take a picture of a QR inside my bathroom.Kate ChernyaevaOnline marketing specialist, SEMrush · WrittenThis one! The only alarm clock I've been using for the last two years. Side effect - you become really good at math very quickly if you choose math equations as your CAPTCHA
Ive been using this app for over 4 years now and in my opinion the best app out there for sleep monitoring. I suggested a few features and they implemented it in the app. Also able to use wearables for tracking.
Track with accelerometer, smartwatch, and even with sonar!!!!!
- North McCormickCreative Engineer, Soloist app developer · WrittenIn addition: SleepCycle with a paired Apple Watch is a neat combo. They have some new features that use taps to tell your body to stop snoring and wake you up with automatic snoozing based on your movements. I think it is possibly the most useful app with my Watch.Cyn ArmisteadAtlanta, GA, US · WrittenIt helps me determine which factors contribute to good sleep and it wakes me up gently!Mohamad Al SadoonMarketing Director at Stay22 · WrittenThis app tracks your sleep pattern throughout the night and wakes you when you are in the right sleep cycle, I've been waking up feeling great ever since I started using it.
- Antonio DmyaWeb Dev Intern | United Nations (DESA) · WrittenGreat product, I’ve been trying this out for a few days and I love the ability to glance at my remaining energy levels in the morning. Very attractive app design too
- Jordan LejuwaanCreator - Futurism + RaveNectar · WrittenFrom what I've seem, Oura is the only accurate sleep tracker. It gives you accurate data with real, usable recommendations for improving sleep. They also just added a feature for tracking other data, like if you drank alcohol, to find other correlations.
Love the first gen and seems like the v.2 has remedied most of what I was unhappy with the most important one being size. If you're happy with any other tracker in the market I can guarantee that even the first gen Oura is better and now it seem the v.2 is a big leap forward from already a good product.
- Bob TroiaEntrepreneur, Emerging Tech
The original Ōura ring is the best sleep tracker around so looking forward to the next-gen model! I've seen a preview of their updated app and glad to see they are surfacing a lot more data that was previously only accessible via their API. Ability to take HRV measurements at any point during the day is a great improvement.
- Using Pillow for some month now and I love it! It monitors your sleep and had an smart alarm that wakes you up very smooth in the morning.

Have been using for probably 5-6 years now. Such a great tool. Use it for napping 2-4 times a week and sleep occasionally. Use it on planes when needing to sleep.
Have recommend to many friends, some with sleep issues and they have all said it was great and helped them significantly too.
I’ve used this product even before it was an app. I’ve used this since 2005 to easily get to sleep and stay asleep. I use this EVERY night when I go to bed. Amazing product.
- Anthony RecenelloDating Coach and Head of Wolf & Garden · WrittenI love droning. And this app gives me the exact specific kind of droning I want. Not only are there tons of sounds to choose from, also not only can I structure/mix the sounds in the exact way I want, I can also upload my own sounds. I use this to sleep every night with a bluetooth speaker on the nightstand. Bonus: I use it for working too!
- Anne-Laure Le Cunff11Entrepreneur + mental health advocate. · WrittenI really like their "Sleep Stories" – basically bedtime stories for adults. Some of them are even created to induce ASMR.

After hours of watching this Laptop screen, a better treatment to mind and soul is required.
And with Calm I enjoy this peace of mind.

Love the concept - if this can deliver a better night sleep for me, I know that I'll be more productive during the daytime.

- Robert McLawsCo-Founder, CloudNimble and BurnRate · WrittenI used to have serious problems getting to sleep. Now, I use SimpleHabit to do one of any number of sleep meditations, and I sleep MUCH better. I also rarely get insomnia now, where it used to be a huge problem.
- Mandeep SinghA Maker & Startups Enthusiast
Seems to be a pretty decent app with a great voiceover and lots of content. I only did a simple 5-minute meditation round and still somehow felt a bit relaxed considering I had a lot of work to be done today. Obviously, these 5 minutes are not enough to give you a full-blown review but it felt good enough to add it to my final shortlist.

- Me and my girlfriend use Mindset every night. Ibused to take about an hour every night tofall asleep but now im asleep <10 minutes every night.
Already great for nail-biting and now I'm working on stopping procrastinating. Could be a game changer for my writing.
I use this app regularly to help me sleep through the night and if I do wake up in the middle to go back to sleep quickly.

When I first used this I was sceptical. I’m an entrepreneur, not getting enough sleep is in the job description right? WRONG!
It IS possible to get a full night’s sleep, wake up early & be EVEN more productive in the morning than you would have been late the night before.
Thanks Can’t Sleep. Now I just need to get my kids onb and maybe we’ll all sleep well every night!
- bazingagagpromotion · WrittenMobile security is more and more important nowadays, that’s why I think no matter who you are, what you do. You will need an app to protect your phone! I am using this app called ‘AppLock’, which is amazing because it can lock all of my apps, images even videos. This app is always on my list when it comes to app recommendation. The one thing that I like the most about this app is that it can take photos of the person who’s trying to unlock your phone! This feature is really funny because I always got the intruder selfie notification from my kids. They are trying really hard to unlock my phone for video games. If you are a cautious people, you really do need one of this app.
