If your Fitbit sleep score is not showing, the most likely reasons are that you haven't synced your device after waking up, or you are looking in the wrong place in the app. The fix is straightforward: sync your Fitbit, then open the Fitbit app, go to the Today tab, and tap the Sleep duration tile to find your score.
Why your Fitbit sleep score is not showing
Fitbit documents two primary reasons your sleep score may be missing. First, you did not sync your device after waking up, so the score has not been loaded into the app yet. Second, you are looking in the wrong place; the score is located under the Sleep duration tile on the Today tab in the app. The only requirements are wearing your device to bed and syncing it when you wake up.
How to find your sleep score in the Fitbit app
To see your sleep score on an iPhone or Android phone, follow these steps:
- Open the Fitbit app.
- Tap the Today tab.
- Tap the Sleep duration tile.
- Tap your sleep score for details on how it was calculated.
Understanding Sleep Score
Fitbit compares your sleep data to other users in your age and gender group to provide context for your sleep score.
How to find your sleep score on your device
On Fitbit devices
- Swipe up from the clock face to Fitbit Today.
- Tap the Sleep tile. If needed, swipe up to find it.
On Google Pixel Watch
- Press the crown.
- Swipe up to the Fitbit Today app or Google Health app, depending on the current app label shown on the watch.
- Open it and swipe to the Sleep card.
What Fitbit does not require for a sleep score
If you have done both of those things and still cannot see your score, the issue is not caused by a missing setting or configuration.
Supported devices for sleep score
Sleep score access is documented for Fitbit devices, Google Pixel Watch, and iPhones and Android phones in the Fitbit app. For Fitbit Sense 2 and Fitbit Versa 4, the watch face can show the Sleep tile by swiping left or right from the clock face. Fitbit's help pages do not list a minimum software version or a minimum watch model list beyond these devices.
Fitbit troubleshooting tips
For effective Fitbit troubleshooting, start by wearing your device to bed and syncing it after waking. Then, check the Today tab and Sleep duration tile in the app. On supported watches, you can also open the Sleep tile directly on the device. If the score is still missing, these are the only documented first checks, no extra settings, carrier steps, or fixes beyond using the correct sleep screen and syncing are listed in Fitbit's official pages. Adjust sleep sensitivity settings on your Fitbit device to make it more responsive to sleep movements and improve score accuracy. Check sleep tracking permissions on your smartphone to ensure the Fitbit app has the necessary permissions enabled. Wearing the device too loosely or too tightly can impact the accuracy of the sleep score.
