Do you find it difficult to sleep at night? Don't you understand why even sleeping for many hours you wake up very tired? Well, today we are going to try to solve these problems and we will do it, of course, making use of technology. Continue reading some applications for your mobile phone that can reach completely change your rest.
How apps help us sleep better
Although sleep is recommended between 7 and 9 hours to rest properly, we do not always manage to feel satisfied despite spending those hours in bed. There are many factors that influence a good rest, of course, but sometimes a change in planning is all it takes to sleep better and feel more alert in the morning.
Exactly with this idea in mind, many developers have created simple and attractive applications for our mobile phones that can help us when we fall into the arms of Morpheus. There are many Apps, so we have selected some of them our favorites taking into account several factors: that they help us sleep, that they wake us up according to our movements or that they do so based on the calculations of sleep cycles and the time we go to sleep.

Among the first, there are those solutions that mainly seek to give us guidelines and advice that help us to plan the moment of rest well, as well as a little push as a way of extra help. The latter take into account the two states of the dream in humans (REM or rapid eye movement sleep (MOR) and non-REM) and at what time is it best to wake up based on the movements we make in them.
Those who calculate the ciclos of sleep, they simply divide our rest into distinctive phases - these are rest periods of between 90 and 110 minutes in duration comprised of five stages - to ensure that we sleep as little as possible and wake up as fresh as possible. To do so, they should never wake us up in stage 3 or 4, being favorable in the so-called stages 1 or in REM.

Pillow
This application is only available for iOS but it is so popular that we couldn't stop showing it to you here. Pillow is in charge of monitoring our sleep to analyze our rest patterns (it even records nocturnal sounds), offer us this information to get to know each other better and, incidentally, wake us up at the moment it deems most appropriate so that we can get up better. Ideally, you should use it in combination with the Apple Watch (and leave it on your wrist at night), but you can also have it running on your iPhone or iPad and place it near your bed.

Sleep Cycle tracks your sleep patterns and wakes you up during light sleep, based on analysis of the sounds you make as you move during different phases of sleep. In this way, the application wakes you up at the most appropriate moment -within a 30-minute interval marked by you- in a "more natural" way, guaranteeing that you will feel rested and full of energy. It is one of the most popular apps and its free version (there is another paid version with more options) is quite complete and sufficient for your goal.

Sleepy
This application divides our sleep into cycles and counts how many are necessary for us to feel rested and at what time is it better to wake up to feel as alert as possible (even if you are going to sleep very little). To do this, you will have to configure how long it usually takes you to fall asleep and from there let the app -described as a "sleep calculator"- tell you what time you should wake up if you go to bed exactly at the moment you ask it; what time you should wake up if you are going to sleep at a certain time; or what time you have to go to sleep if you want to get up at a specific time. It is only available on Android.
