The Gentler Streak app, only available for iOS, has received a new update. The award-winning fitness app lets you track your workouts and wellbeing, and it recently gained a new sleep health section. Version 5.0.5 brings a new sleep-related feature, which builds on this earlier release.

A new version of the Gentler Streak app for iOS is now available to download. This wellness app helps users to track their health, sleep, and exercise with a focus on sustainable lifestyle choices. The app integrates with Apple Health and, as its name suggests, promotes rest days to help you take care of yourself. This is a well-reviewed app that won an Apple Design Award 2024 for Social Impact.

Gentler Streak version 5.0.5 brings an update for the newly released sleep section, which arrived in the version 5.0.0 release around a month ago. The app now allows you to track your sleep health, with trends across up to two weeks of data. The latest release lets you log naps with the arrival of an Unspecified sleep stage. This is a fifth type of sleep, next to the existing REM, Deep Sleep, Core and Awake stages. This means that the time you spend napping or snoozing is now counted toward your sleep goal and is factored into your sleep analysis.

It is worth noting that while Gentler Streak is free to download, a Gentler Streak Premium subscription is required to access more advanced features. For example, all users can get daily sleep analysis and insights, but only Premium subscribers can view the previous night's data and Sleep-Overview charts. A monthly subscription is priced at $7.99/£7.99/€7.99. The app is compatible with various iPhone, iPad, iPod and Apple Watch models including the Apple Watch Series 10 46mm, currently $359 at Amazon.
