Hello Petr, Martin

I have just been reading about the power nap feature which I must of missed when it was released. I will try it out this weekend, as the idea sounds very useful:)

Could you briefly describe how the program identifys when to wake you when in power nap mode? I see that if I set for my alarm for 10am, it will wake me up between 10am and 11am (1hr window) but not before, that part is clear. I read in one of your posts that it will wake you up after your next full sleep cycle, is that true? If so, then is the wake up mechanism different than when in Smart Wake Up mode when it looks for number of movements and intensity of those movements?

Thanks a lot and keep up the great work and dedication to everyone's great sleep!

p.s I love your app, please consider adding a donation link as some people may want to contribute a little more to your extensive research and development of your great app!

Hello Frank,

thank you for your feedback. Please see below.

 I read in one of your posts that it will wake you up after your next full sleep cycle, is that true? If so, then is the wake up mechanism different than when in Smart Wake Up mode when it looks for number of movements and intensity of those movements?

The mechanism is basically the same, power nap is basically a way to define the smart period with "first good moment some time after X:XX" rather than "a good moment between X:XX and Y:YY". It is a way to express the smart period which is more suitable for napping and weekends when you don't have a strict schedule. 
 

Thanks a lot and keep up the great work and dedication to everyone's great sleep!

Thank you very much for your offer. You may consider purchasing some of the add-ons as a form of donation. We do very much appreciate your contribution.
