The free-to-play mobile game Pokémon Sleep has this week received an update allowing you to now pair your smartwatch.
To enable this feature, you'll need to link your account to Apple Health or Health Connect. Below is a list of compatible devices. You can get detailed instructions on how to pair your specific smartwatch brand on the game's website.
"Pokémon Sleep is now compatible with most smartwatches! You can now use the sleep data tracked via smartwatches—such as Apple Watch, Samsung Galaxy Watch, Google Pixel Watch, and Fitbit—to conduct sleep research in Pokémon Sleep. Not all devices are compatible. By tracking sleep with your smartwatch and syncing with Pokémon Sleep, you can meet even more Pokémon!"
- Apple Watch: Apple Watch series
- Samsung Galaxy: Samsung Galaxy Watch, Samsung Galaxy Fit, Samsung Galaxy Ring Series
- Google Pixel Watch: Google Pixel Watch Series
- Fitbit Series
(Note: Some devices under these brands are not compatible with this update)
Pokémon Sleep launched on mobile devices in July last year. We didn't mind what it had to offer, awarding the game seven out of ten stars:

Well time to connect it to my Apple Watch.
It’s a great addition, it’s odd it didn’t come with this from day 1. And they expect this to make a lot of people return to the app, since they’re running an event for returning players.
Is this AI in action again? In the thumbnail, it's plain to see that the Dratini isn't real. Looks like a computer generated image. Very disappointing.
EDIT: @SillyG @Bluelink45 @RupeeClock Guys, this was supposed to be a joke about how they should have used a real Dratini, rather than artwork. And, yes, I was riffing on how people are seeing AI everywhere. Looks like the joke fell flat!!! 😆
That's smart (pun intended) and yeah, kind of surprising it took this long for it to happen but still, better late than never!
This is huge and I will taking advantage immediately!
@Ooyah : Osha wott?
There's way too much technology around us at this point.
@Ooyah It just looks like a normal piece of media in reality art to me
@Ooyah
Did you watch the video? It's completely animated.
Of course it's computer generated, nearly everything is these days, but it's certainly not AI generated.
Anyway, the Smart Watch news is really good, since so many people already have one that they use for sleep monitoring, and this was a thing before Pokémon Sleep even launched.
Man, if only my Apple Watch would hold a charge all night… it’d be dead when I woke up in the morning 😂
I might actually try this a bit more now. I tried it only once early on and it bugged me how my phone had to be on the whole night so I never tried it again. This should have been there from the start.
Considering I already wear my Apple Watch at night to track my sleep, I may start doing this now.
Download a completely pointless app that's entire use is to collect data on you and spy on you or your kids activity. Sign me up Mr Pikachu Orwell.
