Samsung Health cuts sleep coaching data requirement to three days
Eligible users can begin Sleep Coaching after tracking three days of sleep within a seven-to-14-day period, down from a week within a month.
Samsung announced on October 14 that eligible Samsung Health users can begin Sleep Coaching after tracking three days of sleep within a seven-to-14-day period. The update is due to roll out through the Health app during October, with timing varying by market and device model.
GSMArena reports that the previous requirement was a full week of sleep data collected within a month. The shorter requirement means users can start the program with fewer nights of tracking.
Which devices support the sleep coaching update
Samsung says setup includes questions about sleep regularity, interruptions, alcohol and caffeine intake, and sleep satisfaction. It uses those answers and tracked sleep data to assign a Sleep Animal and build a four-to-eight-week program with weekly adjustments.
Samsung lists Health app version 6.24 or later on a Samsung Galaxy phone running Android 11 or later, paired with a Galaxy Watch4 series or later, Galaxy Fit3 or later, or Galaxy Ring.
