Sleep tracking ends with focus profile (alien.top)

Is there any way to track sleep automatically based on physical activity? That is - if I'm sleeping, regardless of sleep prfile.

I'm asking because watch tracks my sleep correctly, but only if it is within sleep focus. E.g. over the weekend:

  • It didn't track my afternoon nap (because sleep profile was not on)
  • I overslept, but sleep data ends right when sleep profile schedule ends - this translates to incorrect sleep data. I slept at 1:30 and woke up after 8, but sleep data shows only 1:30 till 5:30 because sleep focus profile schedule ends at 5:30. So according to apple watch I only slept for 4 hours which is totally incorrect (and this incorrect data will be used in weekly/monthly averages).

Thanks in advance!

It doesn’t natively track naps, you need an app like pillow for that (why it doesn’t is beyond me)

The native sleep app isn’t great, sometimes for me it will register sleep after sleep focus is off, but mostly not.

Get a third party app and enjoy all that sweet data

My preference is pillow as it covers naps and is better with sleep start/end times for me
