Devices provide information that can encourage lifestyle changes that can lead to better rest

My most recent sleep sensors are a Google Pixel Watch, and Google’s new 2nd generation Nest Hub with sleep detection. Prior to the Pixel Watch, I wore a Fitbit Sense to bed which actually has even more sleep sensing technology than the watch because it also measures oxygen saturation and reports on atrial fibrillation events during sleep. Google acquired Fitbit in 2019.

Google is also promoting its Pixel Bud earbuds’ ability to block out noises, provide you with “white noise” to help you sleep and provide “mindful meditation.” The company has also added cough and snore detection to its Pixel 7 phones. Excessive snoring can be a sign of other problems, including sleep apnea, though with all of its sleep sensing products, Google stresses that they are not intended to “diagnose, cure, mitigate, prevent, or treat any disease or condition.

When it comes to my habits, I rarely drink alcohol, and I exercise almost every day, but I haven’t stopped looking at screens at night. If anything, all of this sleep technology, along with my awful habit of watching TV news and checking my email at night, is causing me to have more screen time and more anxiety.Because I have multiple sleep tracking devices, I am able to see that they don’t always agree with one another.

The Nest Hub reports the data on its own screen and connects with the Google Fit smartphone app. It tells you how much sleep you got, how much time you spent in bed, how long it took you to get to sleep and other data. The Nest Hub doesn’t have a camera, but it has radar-like sensors to measure motion, including respiration, and microphones to analyze sounds including snoring and coughing.
