Pokémon Sleep
This unique game-slash-sleep tracker lets players aim for the best sleeping habits while collecting Pokemon at the same time. Tracking sleep patterns is a simple matter of placing the mobile device near a pillow, and the app will record sleep talking, snoring, length of sleep and more.
