Sleep planning

Sleep Duration and Bedtime Calculator

Calculate your available sleep opportunity or work backward from a wake time to a bedtime, including expected time to fall asleep.

Your schedule

Calculate a sleep window

Times may cross midnight. Plans longer than 14 hours are not supported.

Method

What does the calculator do?

For an available sleep window, the calculator measures the time from bedtime to wake time across midnight, then subtracts the time you expect it will take to fall asleep.

For a bedtime, it adds your desired sleep duration and expected sleep latency, then counts backward from your wake time.

Limits

A window is not the same as actual sleep

The result is a sleep opportunity, not a measurement of sleep duration, sleep quality, or how rested you will feel. Awakenings and schedule changes are not included.

Sleep cycles vary. NHLBI describes cycles that restart about every 80 to 100 minutes, so this tool does not promise a refreshed wake-up based on fixed 90-minute blocks.

Adults generally need at least seven hours, but needs vary by age and person. Ongoing sleep concerns belong with a qualified health professional.

From a plan to a record

Grio lets you log sleep in conversation and view it alongside meals, workouts, weight, and supported Apple Health context. A calculator gives you a plan; your record shows what actually happened.
