I fully charge my watch before bed and when I get into bed, I start the heart rate button so I know that it is working.When I check the overnight results i find that it has not recorded through the night.
It has a few readings if I happen to get up to get water, but then nothing again. The readings work perfectly throughout the day and i wear the watch exactly the same way at night.
Is anyone else experiencing this and know a solution? Thanks
Have you scheduled a sleep monitoring session for sleep time?
Track your sleep with Apple Watch – Apple Support (UK)
Thanks. I did try sleep monitoring for the first time last night and it did track my heart rate + through the night. Now I have to figure out what it means..lol...
I appreciate the input.
Interesting. No I have not, because I have variable sleep and awake times and I was more curious just about heart rate, but that is a good suggestion and I will try that tonight.
Thanks for the quick response.
The odd thing is that even without doing that, the heart rate should still be tracked at night as it does during the day. The watch would not know the difference. Hmmm.
Sleep monitoring gives more detailed rate results
I don't use sleep monitoring more than once a month to avoid irritation to my ancient skin I like to let my wrist rest for 8 hours.
You're most welcome!
Apple watch not tracking heartrate at night.
