I'm completely different than most people because I care to help, so you'll
almost never see me suggest an app without a URL to that app, not only
because I'm intelligent enough to know there are often duplicates, but also
because I'm compassionate enough to realize doing so helps others find it.

Carlos is neither, but let's move forward and not let his rudeness stop us
from finding payware app functionality for Andy Burns that has no free APK.

Presumably that's an app functionality that's not free that is useful,
right? If so, then Andy Burns might want to know about it to buy it.

As for me, I never heard of it, so allow me first to google what it does.

I can't easily find in the first page of hits "Sleep FOR Android" but there
are plenty of hits for "Sleep AS Android", so I'll assume that's the app.

  "Sleep as Android enables you to use the phone's microphone and 
   speaker as a sonar (for range and movement detection using ultrasound)"
  <https://docs.sleep.urbandroid.org/sleep/sensors.html>

But wait a minute... it's also for "sleep tracking" from the same app!
  "Sleep tracking is a way to objectively measure 
   the quality of your sleep."
  <https://docs.sleep.urbandroid.org/sleep/sleep_tracking.html>

Since that's two completely different functionalities, and since I don't
want to waste my time finding the wrong app functionality, which is it?

Which of the features are you suggesting Andy Burns would want to pay for?
Or were you thinking of a different app?
