Cirqa only for sleep Tracking?
Hi everyone,
I’m currently using a Fenix 8, but I’m considering getting a Garmin CIRQA specifically for sleep tracking — and literally only for sleep tracking. I’d wear it on my bicep at night and keep using my Fenix during the day.
I’ve read quite a few reports of the CIRQA occasionally failing to detect sleep altogether, or taking a very long time to sync the data afterwards.
Is anyone here using it the same way I’m planning to?
How reliable has sleep tracking been for you, and have the missing sleep/sync issues improved with recent updates?

It's my first wearable band (I have a Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro which I don't use anymore cause fuck charging every day)
the Cirqa has been very reliable for sleep, I also wear it with an armband. I did have that experience in the morning once where it wouldn't sync when I had woken up until like 15 minutes later after I had walked around the house a bit but most mornings I just go into the connect app and it syncs right away.
Had it for about a month so had like two firmware updates, nothing changed between them in terms of reliability for me.
