Why Your Sleep Score Isn’t a Verdict—and How to Use It Instead
Wearable sleep scores are approximate and device-specific; they’re best used to spot patterns and support behavior change, not as a medical verdict. Focus on weekly trends, total sleep time, and how rested you feel, rather than nightly scores. If tracking causes anxiety or information overload, take a break. For better sleep, stick to simple habits: avoid screens before bed, practice calming activities, keep a regular schedule, and note how caffeine or alcohol affect sleep.
