SleepCycleCalc works out when to go to bed or set your alarm so you wake between sleep cycles instead of in the middle of one. Pick a wake time to get bedtimes, pick a bedtime to get wake times, or use Sleep Now to see when to wake if you go to bed right now.
• Three ways to plan: bedtime from a wake time, wake time from a bedtime, or Sleep Now from the current time.
• Add a fall-asleep buffer for the minutes it takes you to drift off, and save your usual buffer and cycle length so every new plan starts with them.
• Adjust the cycle length around the usual 90 minutes and choose which cycle counts to show.
• Each suggestion shows its number of cycles and total hours of sleep, with a timeline of the night for easy comparison.
• Pick adult, teen or child to highlight the sleep window recommended for that age group.
• Weekly plan: set a wake time for each day and get the bedtime that fits your target number of cycles.
• Clock changes for daylight saving time are taken into account when they fall within the night.
• Quick starts for a 7:00 or 6:00 alarm, an 11:00 bedtime, or a power nap.
• Save plans with notes, undo a deletion, and share a plain-text summary.
General guidance only, not medical advice. Real sleep cycles and sleep needs vary from person to person.
