ShutEye®: Sleep Tracker, Sound

I like how this app can detect when you fall asleep and wake up. It’s a good app to get when your main goal is tracking your sleep. However, if you’re getting this app to hear yourself talking or snoring, or whatever you do in you sleep please note that it cost money. It may be just me but I really wish this app wasn’t as expensive, as I was very excited to hear the recordings of my sleep last night and instead was taken to an subscription add. I can understand where they come from and why they make it cost. If this is the case I don’t understand the point of saying you can click on something and use it when really you have to buy it.

I absolutely LOVE this ap! I’ve told everyone about it. There is tons of music, sounds and even voice assist meditation to talk you into a calm place. They have stories and even hypnosis if you choose. You can even custom make your own mix of sounds and it’s really user friendly! It will record you’re snoring and sleep talking so you can hear it the next morning. You’ll know how much/how many times you snore in a night and record what you say if you sleep talk. The ONLY thing is, your recordings do not save. I’d really like to keep some because I’m a sleep talker and I like to keep them.

First off, I missed where they said they were gonna charge me $60. That was a surprise. (I guess that’s the perk of an app that you use when you are you’re most tired. Second, the app stopped working after only a few days. It records nothing now, even when I know I’ve had a conversation. It also isn’t even recording the correct time anymore. I work 3rd shift and have an odd sleep schedule. Last “night” I started the app around 9 am and slept until 5 pm. The app shows I slept 12:51 am-6:51 am... Third, the meditations restart when they’ve finished playing. There have been times that I’ve been right on the edge of sleep and the meditation restarts, waking me up. Fourth, the wake up feature DOES NOT work for me. If I do not set a backup alarm, I will not wake up. I don’t know if it’s even going off or just so subtle that I don’t hear it or what. Fifth, many times when I do finally wake up, the app is already off and only tracked for about 30 minutes. While hearing the sounds that occur while I’m sleeping was neat, it is definitely not $60 neat. And my FitBit does a much better job at ACTUALLY tracking my sleep.

So I snore and sleep talk frequently. I also have lots of trouble sleeping and falling asleep. After paying for a year subscription I was hoping this app would work better than it does. It continually says that I fall asleep within 10 minutes which is never true. It also says that I don’t snore very much and get great sleep every night. I was hoping I could use this to take to my doctor to help find away to solve my sleep issues. Unfortunately this app falls short of my expectations. I have tried placing it on my nightstand as well as next to my pillow but there isn’t a difference.

I did the free 1 week trial. The first couple nights seemed to be extremely accurate. It caught a couple times that I snored and even recorded my son talking in the other room (thought it was me talking in my sleep). However, since the first couple days, according to this app, I haven’t slept a wink. It says I’m awake all night, even when I fall asleep within minutes of turning it on. Last night, it says I got 9 minutes of deep sleep and 30 minutes of light sleep. I was asleep by 11pm and didn’t wake up until just before 7am and; by my calculations, that nearly 8 hours of sleep, not 39 minutes. Disappointed that it went from doing well to not working at all.
