I have been using this shortcut as a supplemental tool to track and analyze my sleep. It works well enough and is kind of fun so I decided to share it.

The Charty app is not required but functionality is very limited without it.

1. Install Charty
2. Run the shortcut
3. Create a Charty widget with the new chart
4. Configure the new widget to launch the "Sleep Widget" shortcut

Let me know if you run into problems.

Additional sleep charts are available with the Sleep Charts shortcut.

And check out my Heart Widget and Daily Dashboard shortcuts for Charty.

Watch a demo.

Notes:

• Requires Apple Health-compatible sleep tracker
• Works with multiple sleep sources
• Tested with Apple Watch, Oura ring and AutoSleep app
• The legend is not supported. Do not enable it.
• Set your widget to use a dark background for the best experience.
• Icons by MenuBox

Automation

You can automate this shortcut with two actions: a Dictionary action and a Run Shortcut action.

1. The Dictionary action should have a "ReportDate" value with the date you want to analyze.
2. Use the dictionary as input for a Run Shortcut action that runs "Sleep Widget."

See the example below.

Running this shortcut will update the chart in the background.

Optional Input

In addition to ReportDate, the following input values are supported.

Enter a value of 1 to enable or 0 to disable.

• Notifications -- Enable or disable notifications
• ShowReport -- Bypass or view the report screen
• Charty -- Enable or disable Charty updates
• Springboard -- Enable or disable returning to Springboard
• Background -- Enable or disable blue chart background

Use Cases

You can use the data returned from Sleep Widget to build your own shortcuts.

For example, I have a shortcut that runs Sleep Widget and then saves the results to my DayOne journal every morning.

I have another shortcut which calls SleepWidget and then uses the results to create a WidgetPack widget like the one below.
