Verdict
This app only works if you already own a Sleep Number smart bed, and it functions mainly as a remote control and tracker for that hardware. Reviewers split sharply between people who like the effortless tracking and people angry about privacy overreach, laggy controls, and expensive customer support experiences.
Best for
Someone who has already bought a Sleep Number smart bed and wants an app to adjust settings and passively log sleep data without extra effort.
Dealbreaker
It requires a Sleep Number smart bed to work at all, and multiple reviewers describe forced data sharing, laggy or freezing controls when adjusting the bed, and costly, unhelpful customer service when something goes wrong.
The facts.

Where we recommend it
The best sleep tracking apps ›Sleep trackers that are well rated and still maintained, with what each one gets wrong.
Alternatives with the same rule.
Every app here is rated 4.2 or better, has been updated in the last eighteen months, and has no significant number of reviewers reporting it broken. Price is not the rule on this list — some are free, some are not. Also with a catch.
Free · 4.8★ (350,208) · Updated Oct 23, 2026
Verdict. ShutEye tracks sleep and snoring, but the reviews are dominated by complaints about surprise subscription charges and trials that convert without clear warning, plus a steady stream of crash and stopped-tracking reports.
Best for. Someone curious about casual sleep and snore tracking who will read the trial terms carefully and cancel before it renews.
Dealbreaker. Many reviewers report being charged for a subscription or annual plan without clear consent or a trial-end reminder, and getting no refund.
Free · 4.7★ (390,837) · Updated Oct 21, 2026
Verdict. BetterSleep has a large user base and a high rating, but the recent review pattern is dominated by complaints about content being locked behind a subscription that used to be free, including features people already paid for once.
Best for. Someone who wants a broad library of sleep sounds and stories and is fine paying an ongoing subscription to keep using them.
Dealbreaker. Reviewers report that sounds and features they used to access for free (or via a one-time payment) have been moved behind a paywall, and several say the free trial itself doesn't work as promised.
Free · 4.7★ (72,710) · Updated Oct 27, 2026
Verdict. Rise gets consistent praise for its insights and interface, but the dominant story in reviews is being billed after cancellation attempts or trial periods, and support that can be slow to fix it. That's a heavy pattern for a paid subscription app.
Best for. Someone who wants detailed sleep-debt coaching and is willing to set a calendar reminder to cancel the trial well before it ends, and to double-check the subscription actually stopped.
Dealbreaker. Many reviewers report being charged after cancelling or after the free trial ended, with the cancel option hard to find and support slow to issue refunds.
