I have a PineTime and a Xiaomi Smart Band 7. There has been little work done on sleep tracking for the PineTime using InfiniTime.

I'm tracking my sleep using the Smart Band 7 and Gadgetbridge not Xiaomi's app. You do have to use Xiaomi's app to set up the band the first time, but that's been the case since the Mi Band 4.

Xiaomi's bands combined with FOSS Gadgetbridge is an excellent combination.

If you install wasp os on the pinetime and the sleep tracker linked in one of my other comments on this thread on wasp os, then that should work, but it is a bit of work. Hopefully it will be packaged with the next wasp os.
