Does this measure sleep like the Fitbit Flex?

Samsung has said sleep tracking will be downloadable. It does not seem to be loaded out of the box, but presumably will be in the Samsung Tizen Store.

There's a "sleep" app that comes preloaded on it. I use it every single night.

It does track while you're sleeping that I've noticed. At midnight it resets automatically and when I get up there's a calorie count. It's different every day I look. I haven't looked at the calorie count when I'm sitting down so I'm not sure if it does. I've been focusing on my steps for the day. Ill have to check it out. I hope this helps.

I'm not sure. It works with the Fitbit Flex. It may depending on what tracker it uses.

This records pulse rate and Spo2 only.It does not tell you depth of sleep.Depth of sleep can only be measured by EEG monitoring by sleep study in sleep lab.

No, the flex does not show the actual number (although the the fitbit Force does). The Flex just shows dots as a percentage of your daily goal. I am okay with it because if I want to know the exact number of steps I simply sync with my phone.

The Zip does not track sleep, but on the other hand displays you step count. I originally used zip, but I lost it. I think it is easy to loose. Now I use Flex and I think I prefer it.

Yes it does. Almost anything anyway, as long as you have a heart rate monitor strap. I even used it whilst sleeping to see how low my HR would go!

Not really sure how accurate but did catch movement when on bike, placed on shoe string. However, now I use a fitbit. Got it for Christmas and like the heart beat reading .. Good luck to you !

It does take a few days for the device to recognize sleep patterns. Remember it also logs all movement it feels as well

Yes it does. Besides the number of steps it also provides the # of hours slept, how many miles you have walked and # of calories burnt.

There is no alarm. The vivofit is designed to have a 1 year battery life without charging so that's why there is no alarm. The fitbit flex (they don't sell the force right now) has a stated battery life of 5 days (between charges). Another big difference is the option to use a Heart Rate Monitor with the vívofit. This is nice when steps don't count for much (cycling, yoga, etc). I would say those are the two fundamental differences, but of course there are other differences in the details of the implementations.

No. It only shows real time results. Most/all of these 'finger' devices don't have the capacity to record and retrieve data. The ones I saw that have this function are much bigger, and use a different design to 'tape' onto the finger. This type of device would slip out of the finger during sleep with any movement.

I have a FitBit Flex and I have to make sure that I move my arms for the steps to count. So make sure you're swinging your arms, like you're walking. Not sure if all FitBits are like this, but my Flex is picky if I'm not swinging my arms.

No, the Fitbit Zip does not. However you can sync it with MyFitness Pal for the food and it will show calories burned vs. calories eaten.

UP uses a precision motion sensor to track your movement intensity and exertion level throughout the day, that does not read or rely on heart rate. You can also enter your effort level for specific workouts you log in the app.

There's a great app for Pebble called Gentle Wake that uses the accelerometer to sense when you're moving in your sleep. It lets you set an amount of time before your alarm in which it can go off if you start moving around, the theory being that you move around in lower levels of sleep and you'll be less groggy if it wakes you then instead of in the middle of deeper sleep. I have mine set for 20 minutes and it wakes me within those 20 minutes about 60% of the time. The other 40% it just goes off at the regular time I set. I love it.

Fitbit measures your rate of steps as "lightly active, fairly active and very active." It counts the amount of steps in a period of time and rates those minutes accordingly. So it definitely knows the difference between strolling and running.
