Are you a Sleep Wellness Professional?

Are you a Sleep Wellness Professional? Are you also a user of Wyze devices?

If you are, would you be open to a brief interview to share some feedback. If so send me a DM and I will get you in touch with our team.

I am very interested to hear this though. While I am not a sleep wellness professional, I am obsessed with tracking my sleep.

My favorite thing is the SleepAsAndroid App with all the integrations. I have used the following to track my sleep with it:

  • Accelerometer Sensor
  • Sonar Sensor
  • Multiple Fitness Bands (multiple Xiaomi Mi Bands, Huami Amazfit Band)
  • Smart Ring (Go2Sleep)
  • Samsung Galaxy Watch
  • Sleep Phaser
  • Wear OS Watch (Ticwatch Pro 5)

Tracking:

  • Breath Rate monitoring
  • SpO2 / Blood oxygen monitoring
  • Movement intensity
  • Heart Rate monitoring
  • Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
  • Light Detection
  • Sound Recognition (including snoring instances/rate and sleep talk recording)
  • Sleep cycles (light, deep, REM phases) and Chronotype detection.
  • Tag tracking: Location, sick, rain, snow, thunder, medication, drinking, phase of the moon, literally anything you want to see how it affects your sleep on the days it exists and doesn’t.
  • etc.

Smart wake up times (so it wakes me up at the right time so I don’t feel tired), and ways to ensure I can’t sleep through my alarm, among many other cool features, many of which I don’t use.

The STATISTICS from this thing are incredible. It even has the option for an AI sleep assistant to summarize the sleep quality, trends, advice, etc.

In fact, my VERY FIRST post in this Wyze forum was begging for Wyze to add Sleep support:

I also use a Google Hub to separately track my sleep.

So…I may not be a sleep wellness “professional” but I am demonstrably pretty obsessed with my sleep, so hopefully Wyze considers letting me eventually beta test whatever they’re up to here! :thinking:

I’ll probably buy/implement it anyway :sweat_smile:

Whatever you do Wyze, please consider allowing Sleep As Android access to integrate the data this time. There are a number of people who specifically check what is accessible by or integrated with SAS before they will buy things related to sleep.

Wowsers I didn’t even know that was an option on android. Do you have to have any extra devices or anything? I also do like tracking my sleep quite a bit. But I found that my smart watch snaps if I either go to bed too late, Or wake up too early it separates the days wrong.

No, you don’t NEED to have any extra devices. It actually works surprisingly well using either just the phone’s accelerometer (ie: put your phone somewhere on the mattress and it tracks your sleep based on that), or using their Sonar algorithm (put your phone next to the bed on a night stand or the headboard or something and aim the microphone toward you while you sleep, and it emits an ultrasonic emission of pulses around 20kHz using the speaker, then uses echo detection as the sound waves (which filter out ambient noise and isolate the breathing signal, etc) bounce off your body as you breathe and move and analyzes the changes in the echo timing and amplitude to figure out your breathing rate, body movement frequency/intensity and sleep phases. It can even detect apnea-like events (breathing stops or slows down).

They do have a freemium option (full license is a couple of dollars, especially if you get it during sales. I think I paid $2-$3 on Black Friday), and a free trial of the full version, and what’s included might change over time, but it’s one of the best apps I’ve ever used. It’s non-negotiable for me now.

Your phone also has a sleep confidence sensor in it. I have my phone separately track sleep confidence ratings in it and I store the sleep confidence sensor logs in Home Assistant. You can tell when I was sleeping (Note these are the home assistant graphs just tracking my phone “Sleep Confidence Sensor” that all phones have):


This is actually really useful for automations. For example, I can setup automations for when my sleep confidence rating is above x% for X amount of time, then turn off certain lights (if I forgot), and lock certain doors, and arm the security system, etc. Additionally I can do conditional automations that can check whether my wife or I or both are asleep or one is asleep and the other is away from home and then turn off or lock things, etc. We don’t even have to think about it, it will just happen automatically without thought.

If Wyze starts tracking sleep status, then they could give users the option to add sleep confidence into their automation rules to let people turn on their cameras, maybe enable or arm notifications or sirens or the HMS or CUPro armed status, or any number of other things. If they add conditional logic, we could add triggers that require both partners to be asleep or one asleep and one away to trigger some things. There are a TON of things they could do with it.

My wife has SAsA auto-track her sleep so she can review why she is feeling sleep deprived and how much of a nap she needs to make up for it, etc.

Yeah, I may not make a living off being a sleep professional, but I am obsessed with my sleep. :slight_smile: It’s literally changed my life drastically even though my sleep cycle is somewhat chaotic :sob:

I think the part @carverofchoice may have left out is the actual Sleep as Android app, which is from Urbandroid Team (at least I think that’s what he’s describing). I’ve played with it a little but haven’t really done a deep dive into the features. What I really like from that developer is the Twilight app, which has been my favorite blue light filter for years. When I’m using that and start to read an e-book at night in bed, my eyes become so relaxed that often I can read only a few pages before I have to just put the tablet down and sleep. It’s very effective. :sleeping_face:

That’s really cool, and the examples you mentioned are another compelling reason to try Home Assistant at some point! :+1:

I’m a user of a Wyze device that stopped synchronizing sleep (and other) data on 1 April 2025. Other affected users and I have submitted logs and opened tickets with Support. (I’ve had two for this issue so far and walked away after the last response to my second ticket because the reply I received was so pathetic and infuriating: The Support agent clearly responded with a template and didn’t even bother to edit out the “XXX” and replace it with the product/problem. I even considered pasting it to Support Shoutouts – Real Stories from Our Users 💬 because it’s so bad.) Despite this, I have yet to see even a hint of a resolution to the problem, which I believe to be server-based, as I’ve repeatedly described in my tickets. :slightly_frowning_face:

I don’t know anything about it’s usefulness, but there’s a Sleep as Android HAOS Hacs integration. Might require MQTT.

I have some Samsung sensors connected in HAOS using Health Connect in Samsung Health.

There are some Wear things also, but I have explored it much.

I’m a Professor of Doesn’t Always Sleep Well. lol

Yeah, I installed it a white ago… But didn’t finish setting it up yet. I should probably do that.
