An effortless way to understand your sleep
Sleep Sensing2 uses motion and sound to analyse the way you sleep. It understands when you go to bed, when you get up and how long you’ve rested.3

Every morning, you can see your sleep summary on Nest Hub. Or just ask, 'Hey Google, how did I sleep last night?'.4
Get a deeper look into your sleep
Sleep Sensing makes it easier to understand what could be impacting your sleep. It can detect your respiratory rate, and even sleep disturbances, such as coughing and snoring.2, 4
Sleep Sensing can also help you make your bedroom better for sleep. It notices light and temperature changes in the room, so you’ll know if your environment could be affecting your sleep.
Get a good night’s sleep,

Sleep Sensing helps you improve the way you sleep with personalised insights and helpful tips.2 And after getting to know your sleep patterns and habits, it gives you weekly suggestions for more consistent sleep.3
