Understanding My Results

How to understand your results

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why did I receive a “No snore data” message?
    It's likely the measurement did not contain clear breathing. Below are tips to ensure a successful measurement.
    • If you sleep with a partner, take a joint measurement so the app can identify who is snoring. See Measuring with a Sleep Partner.
    • Place smartphone about 20 inches from you at head height.
    • Make sure you don't cover your phone with your blanket or pillow.
    • Sleep alone.
    • Reduce ambient noise in your bedroom.
    • Ensure you are measuring for longer than two hours.
    • Listening to audio-playing applications (or using voice assist) may interfere with your measurement.
  • Why don’t my breathing irregularities and snore charts match? BreatheIQ+™ users only

Not every snoring sound corresponds to a breathing irregularity event for people with breathing irregularities. That’s why the charts cannot be directly compared. BreatheIQ™ measures snoring intensity separately from breathing irregularities. The snoring intensity can serve as a first hint to take a closer look at breathing irregularities. However, if someone doesn’t snore, it doesn’t mean they can’t have breathing irregularities. And vice versa, heavy snorers do not always experience breathing irregularities, and people with minimal snoring can still have breathing interruptions.
