A tracker is a clue, not a doctor. It can show patterns like poor sleep after late caffeine, but it can also be wrong. I would not let it run your mood.
Do fitness trackers actually help you get healthier, or do they just make you anxious?

Answers & Discussion
Sleep scores made me anxious. If the app said I slept badly, I felt worse even when I was okay. I turned off some notifications and used trends instead of daily scores.
Step tracking helped me because it gave me a simple daily goal. I ignored most of the advanced numbers and focused on walking more. That kept it useful instead of stressful.
