One of the coolest apps for the iPhone 3G was a sleep tracker. You ran the app, placed your phone on your bed while you slept, and it used the phone’s novel accelerometer to track how much you tossed and turned. It was a bit awkward to use – your phone had to be charging all night, the screen needed to be on and facing down – but the sleep graphs it produced were awesome looking (and occasionally informative).

This is Samsung SleepSense.
