If you sip a lot of coffee, tea or soda throughout the day, Jawbone has an app for you. Up Coffee, hitting AppleAAPL -0.06%’s iOS App Store Thursday, is a free app that will estimate how much your caffeine intake impacts your sleep.
The app works fairly simply—first, you enter in your age,
weight and height. After that, you can use the app to log every cup of
joe or any other caffeinated beverage you drink. Up Coffee will crunch
the numbers and come up with a projected sleep time. Up Coffee’s
estimates—which are based on data it’s collected from users of its Up
and Up24 fitness bands—show up on a graph that ranges from “wired” to
“sleep ready.”
As you enter your own sleep times every morning, the app
will wise up to your habits, Jawbone said. After logging caffeine intake
and sleep times for 10 days, Up Coffee will show how much sleep you
lose for every 100mg of caffeine you drink.
Up and Up24 bands aren’t required to use the app. However,
those who use either the Up or Up24 can sync data between their
wearables and Up Coffee to produce personalized estimates that the
company says will better help users understand the relationship between
caffeine and their sleep patterns. With the band, there’s no need to
enter sleep data manually.
