An Apple Watch and iPhone nap timer that estimates when sleep begins from heart-rate trends, then starts the countdown.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-03 issue.
For
Apple Watch users who take timed naps
Worth noticing
A fail-safe wake is set when a session starts, even if sleep detection never triggers.

Field notes

The session begins with a chosen duration; the iPhone companion can store a default, while the watch uses heart-rate trends to estimate sleep onset. The page says a safety wake is armed at launch and soft haptics signal the end. It also states that very still wakefulness can resemble sleep, and that heart-rate samples are processed on the watch and discarded after each session.
