Sleep tracking is not accurate on Galaxy Fit 3?

[AlanSlade]

Good morning everyone. 

I noticed that my Galaxy fit 3 is not very accurate on tracking my sleep. 

Yesterday I went to sleep at 10:45 PM, and it started tracking my sleep from 1:00 AM. It's not loose on my wrist, so the monitoring should be accurate. Anyone has the same problem?

This issue is the same with mine. I have the same problem even using Samsung S24+ and Samsung S22+ connected with my Galaxy Fit 3. Both phones I used still didn't detect my sleep accurately. It shows that although I slept from 12am - 7pm, it said I woke up from 3am - 4am.

Did anyone find a fix for this? I've been using the Fit 3 for a week with my Samsung S23 and it's missing chunks of sleep during the night.. Last night has a 40 minute and a 2 hour gap in the recordings. The watch fits snugly and everything is up to date.. Wish I'd seen these comments before buying it!

Unfortuantely it is still hit and miss. But I noticed that if you wear the band before sleep with an hour or two, it turns out to be more accurate than if you wear it right before you go to bed. Also, it seems that sometimes it crashes mid sleep, and this causes major inaccuracy.
Waiting for an update that fixes that.

Same issue here. Just bought and set up with my less-than-a-year old OnePlus 11. Missed the first hour of my sleep, missed the last hour before my alarm. And I bought it specifically for sleep tracking...

I have the same issue. Galaxy Fit3 with Galaxy S22. I have tried to reset devices, turn-off saving battery routine in the phone, but sleep tracking still doesnt work properly. Couple of hours missing each day. Very disappointing.

I disagree with them; I have a Samsung phone and face the same issue.

Not true. I am using a Samsung galaxy note 21 and it doesn't start recording my sleep for two hours after I went to bed. It seems to record the heart rate, blood oxygen perfectly but can't get time of sleep correct. I would think a company such as Samsung would be able to fix this as my Fitbit can record sleep accurately. I'm really annoyed. I already had a working watch but thought Samsung would be an improvement. Not happy.

Hello,

I've noticed a recurring issue with the Galaxy Fit 3 related to sleep tracking. Sometimes the device misses several hours of sleep or starts recording too late, even though I’ve been wearing it all night. This happens consistently and is not related to the smartphone, as I’ve tested it on both a Galaxy S22 and S24 Ultra with the same result.

Clearly, the problem lies with the fitness tracker itself.

I have two suggestions that could improve the user experience significantly:

Fix the sleep tracking behavior on the Galaxy Fit 3 to ensure it starts and records sleep accurately and on time.

In the Samsung Health app, allow users to manually add missing hours to an existing sleep record, instead of only creating a new one.

Ideally, both improvements should be implemented: the tracker needs to work more reliably, and the app should give us the flexibility to correct errors manually.

Thank you, and I hope this feedback helps improve the product.

I actually was Amazed when I bought my Fit 3 as it was recording everything correctly my steps my sleep and even snoring ! But I've now noticed only having the watch about 4 months it's not recording my sleep correctly. Example couldn't sleep last night was up to 4am however managed to sleep about 04.30 woke up at 09.00. My watch is saying I slept through the night having undisturbed 8 hours! I will try to reset and see if it works.

Unfortuntely, I have the same problem. Just bought the watch and on the second day only recorded 3 out of 7 hours slept. I am connected to an older samsung galaxy s10e and will update to the s24 on the weekend.
