Forgot to wear Apple Watch to bed. It calculated sleep time anyways. How? (alien.top)

I usually track my sleep data with my watch but I fell asleep with it off. Yet it informed me of sleep data anyways. How did this happen? Was this just a rough calculation based on previous nights where I wore it?

Nobody here actually answered your question. Does your health app show Time in Bed or Time Asleep? Those are 2 different things calculated 2 different ways. Time in bed uses your phone to guesstimate your time spent in bed. It is a stupid feature and it’s ideal to turn it off. Turning it off doesn’t actually stop showing time in bed, but it does make it equal to time asleep. Time asleep is a metric that only your watch can calculate
