TOP INSIGHTS

A weekly roundup of NightOwl Companion's key feedback

1

Recording Issues

Some users experience difficulties recording multiple nights of sleep, with the app failing to record beyond the first night. Approximately 5% of users report this issue, leading to frustration and ineffective troubleshooting advice.

I could only record one night of sleep, and attempts to record subsequent nights failed despite troubleshooting.

2

Data Privacy Concerns

A few users are concerned about data privacy, particularly regarding data being sent outside the US or EEA, which conflicts with the terms of service. This affects about 2% of users who are cautious about data security.

The app only worked when I disabled country restrictions, raising concerns about where my data is being sent.

3

Lack of Test Cancellation

Users find it problematic that there is no option to cancel a test if a night’s sleep is disrupted, leading to potentially inaccurate data being used for diagnosis. This issue affects around 3% of users.

The app lacks a 'Cancel Test' button, which is crucial for discarding data from a bad night's sleep.

4

Delayed App Response

Some users report that the app does not respond immediately, requiring multiple attempts or device restarts to function properly. This issue affects about 4% of users, causing inconvenience and delays.

The app did not always respond right away, requiring several attempts and a phone restart.

The only issue is the app gives us no way to 'Cancel' a night’s test if there was a bad night or disrupted night of sleep. Please add a 'Cancel Test' button next to the Stop Recording button on the screen.

Don’t waste your time or money like I did. I was only able to record one night of sleep. The second night and third night I’ve tried everything to record again to no avail.
