Wakey Wakey: How a Smart Alarm Can Improve Your Morning Routines
Summary: Are you tired of being woken up by artificial light or jarring sounds, only to feel groggy and unrefreshed? A smart alarm can be the solution to your morning woes. But what about Garmin watch users? Unfortunately, this feature is still missing from even the best Garmin watches. Join us as we explore the world of smart alarms and what it would mean for Garmin users.
Introduction:
As an avid night owl, I’ve grown accustomed to the dark, sleep-deprived mornings that come with it. Even the best wake-up lights can’t shake me awake, let alone the annoying bird songs that gradually increase in volume until I force myself out of bed. But what if I told you there’s a way to wake up feeling refreshed and revitalized? Enter the smart alarm.
What is a Smart Alarm?
A smart alarm is designed to wake you during a period of light sleep, roughly around the time your alarm would normally go off. This clever feature ensures you’re not jolted out of deep sleep, leaving you feeling groggy and disoriented. Smart alarms are a feature offered by many of the best fitness trackers, including those from Fitbit and other smartwatches.
Why Does it Matter?
As a Garmin user, I’ve grown attached to my trusty watch, which tracks my sleep stages based on my heart rate and movement. Imagine being woken with a gentle, non-intrusive alarm, rather than the jarring sounds or vibrations. It’s a no-brainer, and yet, even the best Garmin watches don’t offer this feature. It’s a topic that’s been discussed on Garmin’s support forums and the Garmin Subreddit, but so far, there’s been no solution.
Conclusion:
Smart alarms are the future of wake-up routines, and it’s only a matter of time before they become the norm. For Garmin users, the wait is agonizing, but perhaps the latest releases, such as the Garmin Fenix 8 and Garmin Instinct 3, might bring this feature to the table. Until then, we can only hope.
