SleepScore review

SleepScore measures sleep with sonar: the phone on your nightstand measures your movement and breathing without contact to estimate light, deep and REM sleep and every awakening. The vendor says the method is backed by 14 published papers comparing it with polysomnography, the clinical standard, which is more evidence than any other app here publishes. Beyond the nightly score, it offers weekly reports, trend and correlation charts, lifetime history and daily tips tied to your habits. If results suggest a disorder, it offers validated screeners and a 30-day report you can share with a doctor. It also checks the light, temperature and noise in the bedroom. The app is free to download and use; Premium costs $9.99 a month or $59.99 a year on the US App Store with a 7-day trial. It is an iPhone app and is not validated on iPad or older small iPhones, and its audio library is modest.
