We don't sell your data or use it for ads. Your sleep history syncs to your account so you can restore it on a new phone, and raw Apple Health and biometric readings stay on your phone. Analytics never include your health data.

No. ShiftNight is a planning tool, not a diagnosis or treatment app.
ShiftNight supports seven built-in patterns: 7pm-7am (3 on/4 off), 7pm-7am (4 on/3 off), 11pm-7am, 6pm-6am, 8pm-8am, 7pm-7am rotating, and 10pm-6am. You can also create custom patterns for any shift times.
Raw Apple Health data, heart rate, HRV, respiratory rate, SpO2, wrist temperature, and free-text notes stay on your phone. The sleep summaries ShiftNight tracks sync to your account so you can restore them, and analytics never include your health data.

The caffeine calculator is a free browser tool that calculates your personalized caffeine cutoff time based on your shift end time and caffeine sensitivity. It uses caffeine half-life science to determine when to stop drinking coffee so it does not interfere with your sleep.

ShiftNight Premium is $8.99 per month or $68.99 per year (save 36%). There is also a $69.99 lifetime option (limited offer). Premium subscriptions include a 30-day free trial in the iOS app.
Generic sleep apps assume you sleep at night. ShiftNight is built around shift schedules: it knows when your shift ends, calculates sleep windows, tracks caffeine cutoffs, plans naps, and handles flip days. Everything starts from your schedule, not a standard bedtime.
No. ShiftNight is a planning and tracking tool, not a medical device. Its recommendations are based on published sleep science research but are not a substitute for medical advice. Always consult your healthcare provider for medical concerns.
