This move marks a major step for Calm as it doubles down on specialized tools for sleep, one of the biggest struggles in wellness today.
A Personalized Sleep Experience
The Calm Sleep app begins with a short onboarding questionnaire. Based on responses, it creates a customized sleep plan that includes recommended content and daily habits.
These plans focus on key areas like digital hygiene, exercise, stress reduction, and creating the right sleep environment. By tailoring the experience, Calm is making it easier for users to build sustainable nighttime routines.
Sleep Readiness Tracking
A standout feature is the “sleep readiness” bar, which rises as users complete their daily tasks. This simple visual cue acts as motivation, turning better sleep habits into an achievable goal.
The app doesn’t just focus on bedtime—it encourages positive behavior throughout the day that contributes to more restful nights.
Integration with Apple HealthKit
For those who track health data through wearables, Calm Sleep integrates with Apple HealthKit. This allows users to align their sleep goals with real-time data, making it easier to spot patterns and take action.
By bridging content and data, Calm positions itself as more than just a meditation tool—it becomes a holistic sleep coach.
Fresh Content at Launch
At launch, Calm Sleep introduces new Sleep Stories narrated by radio host Delilah and actor Andrew Scott. These join Calm’s existing library of over 300 hours of sleep content and more than 500 Sleep Stories.
With such a wide range, users can explore different approaches—whether it’s storytelling, relaxation exercises, or soundscapes—to find what works best for them.
Why This Matters
Sleep has become a wellness priority, with millions struggling to get quality rest. By offering a standalone iOS app for sleep support, Calm is carving out a niche in the health-tech space that caters directly to one of the most common wellness needs.
With personalization, engaging content, and data integration, Calm Sleep may be the company’s most impactful release yet.
