Recorded reading as being asleep. If I have been awake for over 45 minutes l will read in bed and this often helps me fall back asleep. My whoop reads the time I am reading as being asleep and gives me a very inaccurate reading for my sleep. Is there a way to manually change this? Can you find a way to enter awake time if it is recorded incorrectly by the whoop?

I was thinking the same thing. And why has nobody at Whoop answered this inquiry?
