I have an app on my pone that's been doing a decent job of monitoring my sleep as to awake/asleep times & disturbances (it keeps track of depth of sleep)
It's called "Sleep Cycle"; I actually downloaded it because it's an alarm that brings you out of dep sleep slowly, with extremely low volume music/tone, increasing only as you ease upwards from deepest sleep -- the idea being not to shock your poor system out of deepest rest.
It does a wonderful job of this, but also, as an extra feature, provides a sleep report each morning, & a monthly summary.
My CPAP also monitors my sleep. specific to respiration.
I find it a handy app. I've kept the daily reports for a couple years now -- one day, when bored I might put them all into a database & graph things to see what shows up. .
