Customizing sleep tracking settings on the Redmi Watch 5 Active involves enabling and configuring the advanced sleep monitoring feature. Here's how you can do it:
1. Accessing Sleep Settings: To start, you need to access the sleep app on your watch. You can do this by swiping left from the watch face until you find the "Sleep" widget, which is represented by a blue icon with a bed. Alternatively, you can press the side button to access the apps menu and find the sleep icon there[1].
2. Enabling Advanced Sleep Monitoring: Once you're in the sleep app, scroll down to find the "Advanced Monitoring" option. This feature is typically off by default. Tap on it to toggle it on. This will allow your watch to track detailed sleep stages such as deep sleep, light sleep, and REM sleep[1].
3. Viewing Sleep Data: The detailed sleep data, including sleep duration and quality, is accessible through the Mi Fitness app. This app provides insights into your sleep patterns, helping you understand your rest habits better. It also offers an overall sleep score and can detect naps lasting between 20 minutes to 3 hours[2][3].
While the Redmi Watch 5 Active does not offer extensive customization options for sleep tracking beyond enabling advanced monitoring, it provides comprehensive data that can help you adjust your sleep habits. For more detailed customization or specific settings adjustments, you might need to rely on the companion app's features and insights.
The watch's sleep tracking capabilities are part of its broader health and fitness features, which include 24/7 heart rate monitoring, blood oxygen tracking, stress level monitoring, and menstrual cycle tracking. These features make it a robust tool for health monitoring despite its budget-friendly price[2].
