Something like a Fitbit Ionic, Versa, or Charge 3 may be options to consider. They support fitness and sleep tracking, along with heart rate monitoring, which may help avoid the need to purchase a separate HR strap. The Fitbit app is quite detailed in what it can show.
As for a fitness-tracking application, I've used Endomondo for some years, and before that MapMyRide (both of which are now in the UnderArmor umbrella). While I do pay for a subscription, I think either app has some decent features and tracking capabilities, and get regular updates and support. Fibit integration with third-party fitness-tracking apps is possible.
If you wanted to go the all Apple route, then an Apple Watch works well for tracking fitness and workouts in combination with the iOS Activity and Health apps. I've used Endomondo in conjunction with Activity and Health apps, and if setup, Endomondo can write exercise/fitness data to the apps; thus enabling a detailed view into daily fitness tracking and overall health perhaps. Apple Watch does not have native sleep tracking, but I understand there may be some good third party apps that can do that.
Battery life and cost between Fitbit and Apple Watch may also be a consideration, with pros/cons for each as they in my experience both offer great capabilities and features.
