SleepScore

Why We Chose It: SleepScore is our best overall app as it is available for iOS and Android and offers many great features to track and improve your sleep.

What We Like

  • Uses sonar technology to track your sleep

  • Syncs with wearables such as Apple Watch

  • Clear analysis of sleep patterns and easy-to-understand sleep score

  • Measures light and noise level in the bedroom to determine optimal conditions for sleep

What We Don’t Like

  • You must start and stop the tracker for accurate tracking

  • Reviews state it does not function as well on Android-powered devices compared to iOS

As the most advanced sleep tracker on this list, SleepScore uses sonar technology to measure sleep habits from your nightstand. ResMed, the developer of SleepScore, has studied sleep for over a decade to provide expert advice and sleep insights. The app sends sonar waves from your phone to measure your breathing and any sounds, which allow it to track light, deep, and REM sleep and identify when you wake up during the night. The app formulates a sleep score to attach an objective number to your sleep quality to help with setting goals for better sleep. To use the sonar technology, you must leave your phone plugged in, above mattress level, and with the base of the phone pointed toward you (which may not be possible depending on your bedroom setup).

SleepScore is available on iOS and Android. The free version of this app includes many features such as sleep tracking, smart alarms, goal setting, light and sound monitoring, bedtime reminders, sleep scores, and a seven-day sleep history. SleepScore premium costs $7.99 a month or $49.99 a year after a one-week free trial. This premium membership gives you access to unlimited sleep history tracking, charts to visualize your sleep patterns, sleep coaching, and a doctor’s report that will point out concerns in your sleep that you can bring with you to your medical professional. Overall, if you’re looking for a comprehensive sleep tracker app, SleepScore has all the features you need to fully understand your sleep patterns.
