What You'll Learn
Set up the REM sleep cycle monitor
To set up the REM sleep cycle monitor on your Samsung Gear S3, you need to follow these steps:
- Open the Samsung Health app on your phone or watch.
- Navigate to the Heart Rate option and tap on it.
- Tap the three-dot menu found on the right.
- Tap the Gear icon.
- Find Settings, and then scroll, find, and select the 'Always' option.
This will ensure that your Gear S3 continuously monitors your heart rate during sleep, which is necessary for REM cycle tracking. Note that this feature might not be available on all Gear S3 models. Some users have reported that their Gear S3 does not record REM sleep data, only sleep time and calories burned. This could be due to the hardware limitations of the Gear S3 compared to newer Galaxy Watch models.
To ensure the accuracy of your sleep tracking data, it is recommended to wear your Gear S3 every night and sync it with the Samsung Health app when you wake up. The app will provide detailed information about your sleep quality, including light, deep, and REM sleep cycles, as well as sleep consistency and blood oxygen levels.
