Jawbone launches UP Coffee app to help users correlate sleep with caffeine

Jawbone, maker of the Jawbone UP activity tracker, launched an app today with a different take on sleep tracking. The app, UP Coffee, helps users regulate their caffeine intake and understand how caffeine affects their sleep. While the app is open for anyone to download, not just owners of a Jawbone UP wristband, if the user owns the UP or UP24, he or she can also sync UP Coffee with that device.

UP Coffee provides users with more information about how their caffeine intake affects sleep, the more they log in the app. After three days, the app will compare the user to other coffee drinkers and after one week, the app will provide the user with his or her “caffeine persona”. After 10 days, the app can give the user more actionable information, such as how much sleep the user will lose on average for every 100mg of caffeine he or she ingests.
