INACTIVITY ALERT

It's widely known that physical activity is a major factor in maintaining health. In addition to being physically
active, it's important to avoid prolonged sitting. Sitting for long periods of time is bad for your health, even on
those days when you train and gain enough daily activity. Your A360 spots if you're being inactive for too long
during your day and this way helps you to break up your sitting to avoid the negative effects it has on your
health.
If you've been still for 55 minutes, you'll get an inactivity alert:
vibration. Stand up and find your own way to be active. Take a short walk, stretch, or do some other light activ-
ity. The message goes away when you start moving or press any button. If you don't get active in five
minutes, you'll get an inactivity stamp, which you can see on the Flow app and Flow web service after
syncing.
Both Flow app and Flow web service will show you how many inactivity stamps you have received. This way
you can check back on your daily routine and make changes towards a more active life.

SLEEP INFORMATION IN THE FLOW WEB SERVICE AND FLOW APP

A360 will track your sleep time and quality (restful / restless), if you wear it at night. You don't have to turn the
sleep mode on. The device automatically detects from your wrist movements that you're sleeping. Sleep time,
and its quality (restful / restless) is shown in the Flow web service and Flow app after A360 is synced.
Your sleep time is the longest continuous rest time that takes place within 24 hours starting from 18:00/6pm to
next day's 18:00/6pm. Breaks shorter than one hour in your sleep don't stop sleep tracking, but they are not
taken into account in the sleep time. Breaks longer than 1 hour stop sleep time tracking.
The periods when you sleep peacefully and don't move a lot are calculated as restful sleep. The periods when
you move and change your position are calculated as restless sleep. Instead of simply summing up all the
immobile periods, the calculation gives more weight to long than short immobile periods. The percentage of
restful sleep compares the time you slept restfully with the total sleeping time. Restful sleep is highly indi-
vidual and should be interpreted together with sleep time.
