It revealed that users in Germany slept the most with an average of 7 hours 28 minutes but that users in Japan slept around 6 hours 38 minutes. This means that users in Japan slept 50 minutes less than those in Germany and almost half an hour less than those in Italy.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Average hours of sleep for the 7 countries:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"1\">\n<li>Germany 7hrs 28mins<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"2\">\n<li>England 7hrs 21mins\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"3\">\n<li>France 7hrs 20mins\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"4\">\n<li>Canada 7hrs 19mins\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"5\">\n<li>USA 7hrs 14mins\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"6\">\n<li>Italy 7hrs 03mins\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"7\">\n<li>Japan 6hrs 38mins \u00a0<br>(Global average 7hrs 11mins)\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The results were calculated using the data from all participants who opted in, whereas the <a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/20240201-26555\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">previous study results released in January<\/a> just used over 300 samples from each country. The latest study gives a more comprehensive picture of people\u2019s average sleeping times. Therefore, it is difficult to compare the two studies directly, although it is interesting to see that Germany was previously number 3, while France was number 1.\u00a0The average global sleeping time also increased from 6 hours 28 minutes to 7 hours 11 minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240714-34067-001.jpg\" alt=\"Pokemon Sleep Pikachu Bulbasaur Charizard sleeping\" class=\"wp-image-34076\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240714-34067-001.jpg 900w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240714-34067-001-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240714-34067-001-768x432.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that sleep time was not calculated from the moment the user hit the \u201csleep\u201d button up to when they hit \u201cend.\u201d Rather, sleeping time was measured from the first time you fall into deep sleep up until the last time you fall into shallow sleep (prior to waking up). Therefore, if you are one of those people who tries to \u201ccheat\u201d at Pok\u00e9mon Sleep to gather more dozy Pok\u00e9mon by not pressing \u201cend\u201d and pretending you slept for longer, you probably won\u2019t negatively affect the results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a side note, they also found from looking at play data in Japan that on hotter days, users tended to take longer to fall asleep. Although Japan has the lowest average sleeping time, it seems many Pok\u00e9mon Sleep users in the country are committed to using the app. According to the survey data, 60.7% of recent active Pok\u00e9mon Sleep users in Japan have been using the app almost continuously since it came out in July 2023.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pok\u00e9mon Sleep is free to play on <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/pok%C3%A9mon-sleep\/id1579464667\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iOS<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=jp.pokemon.pokemonsleep&amp;hl=en&amp;gl=US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Android<\/a>.
