GoBe U: Why Does My GoBe Sleep Quality Score Not Match How I Feel?

Sometimes GoBe may show a high Sleep Quality score even if you woke up several times during the night or do not feel fully rested in the morning. This is related to the parameters used to calculate the score.

How is Sleep Quality calculated?

The GoBe Sleep Quality score primarily reflects:

• how long you slept relative to your normal sleep duration;

• how much of your overall sleep period you actually spent asleep.

The number of awakenings itself does not have a significant impact on the final score. Their total duration matters more.

If your awakenings were brief, for example only a few minutes each, they may have little effect on the score. This is why Sleep Quality may remain high even if you woke up several times during the night.

Brief awakenings during the night are also a normal part of sleep architecture. In total, periods of wakefulness may account for approximately 30–60 minutes per night.

Why can a high Sleep Quality score differ from how I feel?

How rested and refreshed you feel depends on more than just your total sleep duration. It can also be affected by:

• how continuous your sleep was;

• sleep depth;

• sleep structure;

• individual factors and other circumstances.

The current GoBe Sleep Quality score does not assess sleep depth or sleep structure, nor does it directly reflect your subjective feeling of how well-rested you are.

As a result, the app may show a high Sleep Quality score even if you feel tired or did not get enough rest after a night with frequent awakenings.

A high score in the app does not mean that your subjective feeling of tiredness or insufficient sleep is incorrect. The score reflects specific aspects of sleep evaluated by the GoBe algorithm, while how you feel can be influenced by a wider range of factors.

When assessing how well you have rested, we recommend considering both your GoBe data and how you actually feel.
