It sources several studies on their relative accuracy (up to 20% off). Do you agree with the studies? I scored 90%. (hint: potato chips are sneaky!)

    I got 70%, I would have gotten 80% but those darn potato chips lol (I didn't read the full post just clicked the link...silly me). I know my activity tracker isn't as accurate as I'd like it to be, but I don't' think mine overestimates my sleep since I turn 'sleep mode' on and off manually. Of course I also don't know how the other trackers track sleep as I've never looked into it.

    @Mrsallen6_11 I can't help as I use the zip. I have a CPAP that tracks my sleep patterns already, and I know I sleep exactly 7.5 hours a night.
