The Samsung Galaxy Watch's sleep tracking feature inaccurately records my sleep cycle, often registering me as sleeping when I'm actually awake. How can I improve the accuracy of sleep tracking?

We may offer some steps to improve Samsung Galaxy Watch sleep tracking accuracy:
• Periodically restart your Samsung Galaxy Watch. This routine maintenance can fix minor sleep tracking issues.
• Maintain Your Watch: Install the latest Samsung updates to keep your watch's software updated. Bug fixes and enhancements improve sleep tracking accuracy in these updates.
• Calibrate Sleep Tracking: Optimize accuracy by calibrating the feature. Calibrate using the Samsung Health app on your paired smartphone. To calibrate, go to "Settings," "Sleep," and "Calibrate sleep tracking".
• Contact Samsung support if the sleep tracking feature is still inaccurate after your efforts. Their technical support team can offer advice and solutions for your issue. Remember they are the developers; they know the device better.
• To ensure proper wrist placement, wear your Samsung Galaxy Watch snugly and comfortably. The watch must be properly placed to stay on your skin. This tracks vital metrics like heart rate accurately, improving sleep data.
• Activate All Sleep Tracking Features: Enable all watch sleep tracking features. Sleep heart rate, apnea, and stage monitoring are included. Using these features helps you understand your sleep patterns.
• Reduce Electronic Device Use Before Bed: Avoid using electronic devices in the hour before bedtime. Blue light from such devices may impair sleep quality and sleep tracking.
