Bedtime: Be intentional
Setting a bedtime helps you to be purposeful about getting into bed and preparing for rest. Set a bedtime and wake time to anchor your routine.
Bedtime Reminders: Your bedtime signal
A Bedtime Reminder sends your phone a gentle nudge that it's time to start slowing down.
Turndown: Your bedtime signal
It uses gentle light and sound to tell your body, “Bedtime’s coming soon.”
Turndown will play on your device at a preset time and continues until you tap the button on your Hatch Sleep Clock to start your Bedtime Playlist. Think of it as the first step in your nightly transition — a calm signal to pause, breathe, and shift out of the day.
Bedtime Playlist: Create a routine you love
Discover what works for your circadian rhythm, adapt your plan, and stick with it. With your Bedtime Plan you can choose from thousands of audio options designed to help you relax out of long days and into deeper sleep.
You can keep it simple or make it your own:
- A short sound and light moment before sleep
- Or a full routine with multiple steps that guide you toward deep rest
