How was your first night with Pokémon Sleep?
  • I assume if there’s no movement at all it will not register it as sleep. The dog trick could work, but I think the main benefit is the insights into your own sleep, not the game mechanics.

    You don’t get coins based on the quality of your sleep, only the quantity. So, you could toss and turn for 8 hours and get more coins than if you slept perfectly well for 7.

    The app claims that all recordings never leave your phone but I don’t have any way to verify that.

  • How was your first night with Pokémon Sleep?

    I recorded my first sleep session and worked through all the tutorials in Pokémon sleep last night and this morning. The basic framework is very cute.

    • You place your phone (or Pokémon Go+ Plus) on your mattress while you sleep. The screen dims, but the phone stays awake all night unless you’re using a PG+P.
    • You generate currency based on the percentage of optimal sleep that you record. For an adult, that is 8 hours. So if you sleep 4 hours, you will earn 50 sleep points.
    • While sleeping, you attract Pokémon who join you while sleeping. I had 5 sleep in my camp. You record the sleeping Pokémon into your Dex.
    • You can interact with these Pokémon and give them biscuits, which increases friendship. When you max friendship, you “catch” them and can use them as a helper in the future. Helpers gather cooking ingredients and persist on your main screen.
    • During the day, your pikachu and helper Pokémon gather berries and cooking ingredients. You can feed these berries and cooked dishes to a snorlax, which gets stronger each day.
    • You get a new snorlax every Monday and must start strengthening it from scratch. The stronger it is, the more sleeping Pokémon it can attract and the more rare those Pokémons’ sleep styles you will see.
    • There is a $10 monthly pass that gives you bonus currency, access to a shop with cheaper prices and exclusive items, and access to all of your sleeping data. Otherwise, you can only see the last 30 days of data.

    It’s a cute idea and I’ve been struggling with sleep, so I’m going to try to use it for at least a month and see how I like it. Have you used it yet? What are your thoughts?

  • This is beautiful, really amazing work. Shows a good number of articles on the screen at once (even on a 13 mini)! Clean, simple, great options. Everything I want in an app.

    Also, thank you so much for the Pride app icon options. It’s a little thing, but it assures me that the developer is thoughtful and open-minded. 💖
