SleepBot vs Sleep Cycle

This app provides guides on how to go to sleep (what to eat and other strategies), how to stay awake, and more reading material to learn about sleep. All of these guides are local on the app, no internet connection needed. Best of all is the guide on how to use SleepBot to make it the most effective it can be.

SleepBot uses motion to detect when you are in your lightest sleep. It can then wake you up with a gradually increasing volume alarm when you will wake up the least tired.

What makes this app more unique is the ability to touch one button that tells the phone you are asleep which it uses to track how long you sleep. Over time, you can review your sleeping statistics by way of informative graphs.

All the collected data can be exported into an Excel spreadsheet.

Sleep Cycle comes with soothing sounds to help alleviate troubles falling asleep.

Users can see how they slept during the previous night, or they can look at a night-to-night graph of overall sleep trends.

The app will give an overview of each night's sleep. It will allow seeing the quality of your sleep, comparing nights to find patterns and ultimately take action to improve sleep.

Sleep analysis is improved by providing a space for nightly notes, so users are able to see correlation between stressful events and sleeping patterns.

The alarm is set by choosing a 10-90 minute window of when to be woken up. The app will analyze sleep patterns throughout the night and sound the alarm during the lightest phase of sleep within set interval.
