Google fit wants to improve our quality of life, and for this he encourages us to walk counting the steps and kilometers traveled and also to sleep better.
The Google sports application also allows us record the dream so that through its monitoring and statistics we can know if we are resting correctly, since this allows us improve our sleep routine.
New sleep statistics
On the main page of Google fit we will find the statistics of Dream, showing what our hours of rest in the last seven days.
By clicking on that statistic we can see more data in detail, such as changing the range of the week, seeing the hours of our rest, the duration, the data for the month or throughout the year, showing the average hours we sleep.
Record sleep manually
Google Fit allows us record sleep manually. To do so, just touch on the “Add” icon from the section Dream. There we put the day and time to sleep and time to get up.

At the moment Google Fit is not able to automatically monitor our rest, for this we have to resort to third-party tracking apps and devices compatible with Google Fit.
Record sleep automatically from Sleep as Android
Sleep as Android allows you to start automatic sleep monitoring placing the mobile on the mattress so that it detects how many hours we have slept. Then we can activate the sync with Google Fit to see from the Google application the hours of sleep collected by this first application.

From bracelets, watches and sensors
Another alternative, and more practical, is to use a bracelet or smart watch It automatically detects our sleep cycle, recognizing when we have fallen asleep and woke up. Here we find several options.

With the app My Fit we can synchronize the data collected by the Xiaomi Mi Band bracelets and with the application Zepp for watches Amazfit compatible we can sync Google Fit to see all the data monitored by these devices in the Google sports application.
