view of your overall activity during the day.

You can track how much you sleep using your TomTom Touch. Here some of things you can do: 
 Track your how long you are sleeping for each day, week, month or year. 
 You can upload your sleep tracking metrics to the TomTom MySports website and TomTom 
MySports mobile app. 
Your watch measures sleep based on motion and it makes an assumption that when you are not 
moving after a certain time in the afternoon, you are asleep.  
The day resets at 4.00pm (16:00) and your watch starts counting a new night at that point.

swimming and water sports.

exercise icon.
