Rise Science has announced updates to its RISE app, a sleep and energy (circadian) tracking app that can help users understand how their sleep debt and their circadian rhythms can affect how they feel and perform each day.

People who feel sleepy during the day can now get insight from this app about their sleeping patterns as well as methods to improve their sleeping habits for more energy.
The CDC recommends a minimum of seven hours of good quality sleep for adults, but sleepfoundation.org reports that around 70% of Americans may be sleep-deprived – with serious results. Not enough sleep can affect the brain’s ability to concentrate and function and can lower a person’s immune system.
Many people mistakenly think that they need the best pillow, mattress, and blanket. The RISE team explains that sleep hygiene does not rely on those items. Instead, it includes behaviors throughout the day that may not seem to be sleep-related but can either interfere with or promote better sleep.
As explained on the Rise Science website, sleep-deprived individuals often subjectively adjust to the deprivation and acquire sleep debt, causing less than optimal cognitive function even when they think they are operating at full capacity.
Fortunately, an individual can improve their sleep hygiene by repaying their sleep debt and reversing the problems caused by the deprivation.
Another way an individual can improve their sleep hygiene is by working with their circadian rhythms and scheduling work and rest around their daily dips and peaks.
The RISE software app, which benefits from the scientific concepts of sleep debt and circadian rhythms, uses the gyroscope and motion sensors in iPhones and Androids to track sleep and recommend ways a person can improve their sleep and energy.
Rise Science co-founders Leon Sasson and Jeff Kahn drew on their backgrounds in sleep science and behavioral science to design this app that syncs with devices like the Apple Watch, Fitbit, Garmin, and Oura.
The RISE team recommends that individuals get to know their own sleep needs so they can modify their behaviors to improve their circadian rhythms and sleep.
A spokesperson at Rise Science states, “We want to make the world healthier, more enjoyable, and more productive by championing natural sleep, so we go beyond tracking sleep time and making vague gestures at sleep quality. We want our users to experience the ongoing, real-world rewards of becoming sleep-conscious.”
