How can we help?

Sleeps counts down the sleeps until the fun stuff. Here's how to get the most out of it.

How to

1

Add a countdown

Tap the yellow + in the top corner. Give it a name, pick the date, choose a picture and a color, then tap Save.

2

Ask Siri

Say “Hey Siri, how many sleeps until Summer Camp in Sleeps?” Siri needs the app's name — “in Sleeps” — at the end of the question.

3

Add a home-screen widget

Touch and hold an empty spot on the Home Screen, tap EditAdd Widget, search for Sleeps, and pick the small or medium size. Long-press the widget to pin one specific countdown.

4

Turn on reminders

Each countdown has a Remind us as it gets close switch. Sleeps gently reminds you at 7, 3, and 1 sleeps to go, plus the morning of. Set the time of day in Settings.

5

Sync across devices

Sign in to the same iCloud account on each device. Your countdowns sync automatically — add one on a phone and it shows up on the iPad.

6

Edit or delete

Tap a countdown to open it, then Edit to change it. To remove one, touch and hold its card on the list and choose Delete.
