How to track your sleep with the Google Nest Hub
Our modern day gadgets like our phones and smartwatches can track all sorts of health data, like steps taken, calories burnt, heart rate, check for irregular heart rates, oxygen levels, and more.
This is clearly vital information that can be used to check if something could be wrong with you, but did you know that sleep tracking is also important? If you’ve ever woken up even more tired compared to before you went to bed, there might be something wrong and that’s where sleep trackers can come in handy.
The good news is that a lot of devices like our smartwatches already come with sleep tracking, but if you don’t own a smartwatch but instead have Google’s second-gen Nest Hub, you can actually use that as a tracker instead, and here’s what you need to do to turn it on.
Track your sleep with Google Nest Hub
- Launch the Google Home app on your smartphone
- Tap on the Nest Hub
- Tap on the cogwheel icon to launch its settings
- Tap on Sleep Sensing
