Not getting enough sleep dramatically takes a toll on your overall health and mood, and although these smartphones are often most likely to be blamed for health-related concerns, courtesy of the highly advanced era, they could also become the saviour of our health.

Gadinsider is here today with a list of top best Android apps that have been designed for nothing but to help you get a good and long sleep. Besides playing a digital sleep coach or a gentle alarm, these apps have the potential to monitor your sleep and help you fall asleep in a blink.
