Garmin introduces innovative nap detection feature
It is a great day to be a napper
Attention, Garmin owners: an exciting new feature is coming to your wrists. Whether you are indulging in a mid-day siesta or catching some zzz’s at work, Garmin’s all-new nap detection feature is set to automatically recognize and analyze your daytime naps, providing valuable insights into your sleep habits.
Studies reveal that approximately one-third of adults take at least one nap per week. Garmin’s nap detection feature is ready to capitalize on these beneficial rest periods. Even a brief 15-minute snooze can deliver an abundance of advantages, improving alertness, reducing fatigue, and improving your mood.
Your Garmin watch is equipped with Firstbeat Analytics, a partner of the brand since 2020, which will seamlessly detect naps using heartbeat data. It will not only automatically identify your nap sessions but also offer insights into your napping habits. During naps, Garmin devices prioritize tracking lighter sleep stages, excluding deep sleep and REM sleep monitoring.
The nap detection feature plays a pivotal role in Garmin’s smart sleep coaching, estimating your body’s rest needs. By analyzing your nap patterns, the watch provides personalized guidance on when and how long to nap and how these habits align with your overall sleep habits. But Garmin’s sleep coach doesn’t just stop there. It also offers personalized nap guidance, suggesting the ideal time and duration for a nap to maximize the benefit and increase your Body Battery.
With Garmin’s innovative new feature, users can delve deeper into their daytime sleeping habits, using this information to develop healthier routines and get back to training. So, get ready to turn your midday Z’s into recovery gains on your wrist. Happy napping!
