Best Sleep Apps for College Students
It’s not an exaggeration to say that all college students deserve a nap. Balancing your life as a college student often means things like sleeping can fall to the wayside.
So when you do get the time to sleep, you want to take full advantage. And the easiest way to do that is with sleep apps.
So here are the top 3 sleep apps for students.
Sleep Cycle: Sleep analysis & Smart alarm clock
Sleep cycle is a sleep app designed to help you understand your sleep patterns and improve them. Instead of putting you to sleep, this app wants to make sure you’re getting the best sleep you can possibly get. It tracks your sleep patterns and shows you how best to make your sleep restful.
It has both a Premium and a Free version. The Free version gives you a sleep analysis and graphs to show your sleep patterns. As well as alarm melodies, the ability to shake to snooze the alarm and timed snoozes anywhere up to 90 minutes.
The Premium version, for $30US a year, has a few more in-depth features, including a long-term sleep tracker, comparing your sleep patterns to public data, sleep aids, sleep notes, and online backups of your data.
The only catch is that you must keep your phone on the bedside table or next to you to make sure that the app can detect your sleep patterns.
Relax Melodies: Sleep Sounds
Relax Melodies has a very diverse and expansive library of different types of sounds, making it a great sleep app for those who want to try multiple sounds, music, and audio.
Their sounds range from nature to white noise, water, and different isochronic brainwaves and binaural beats. They also feature a music library with singing, instruments, and ambient melodies.
For audio they have meditations for restful sleep, falling back asleep, stress, and deep sleep as well as many others. And audio that is rather unique to them is SleepMoves, which is a guided way to move your body to prepare to sleep.
SleepMoves is good for helping unwind, jet-lag, and draining energy.
Atmosphere: Relaxing Sounds
Atmosphere is a straightforward and simple sleep app that lets you pick between types of sounds. It has 8 different environments to choose from so that no matter what sort of background noise you need, this app most likely has something for you.
From environments ranging from the beach to the city and back to the forests, and even underwater, there’s some form of calming music for everyone. The app also features binaural beats and isochronic tones as a type of rhythm sound to put you to sleep.
Atmosphere has a very unique sound system as they allow you to upload your own sounds and mix your own music. This means that you can customize any of their sounds with sounds of your own. As well, you can combine different environments.
