NightStand In beta

From a still phone to a night of sleep

While you sleep, your phone lies still. NightStand reads that stillness as your night.

The phone lay still from 11:00 PM to 5:41 AM and was picked up twice. You guessed 7h 15m, 41 min more than measured.

Set it down.

The app records every night on its own. It reads how your phone moves and keeps a 30-second summary.

The Today screen: last night lasted 6 hours 34 minutes, from 11:00 PM to 5:41 AM, with two short interruptions.
2

Guess first.

Each morning, it asks about your night before it shows the measurement: how you slept, when you fell asleep and for how long.

The morning check-in asks how long you slept, with a wheel set to 7 hours 15 minutes.
3

Test your reaction.

One 30-second test in the morning check-in and one before bed. Five more tests of attention and memory, any time.

The Tests page: Reaction, Symbols, 2-back, Go / no-go, Sequence and Colors, each with its last score.
4

See how you slept.
