Is your partner skeptical about the severity of their snoring? Are you exhausted from trying to convince them that their snoring is not just a minor issue? Now, there’s a solution that can provide clear evidence. Snorple has teamed up with leading AI specialists from the University of Sheffield to introduce SoundSleep, an app designed to help both of you achieve a more restful night’s sleep.
What is SoundSleep?
SoundSleep is a complimentary snoring app available for download on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. This innovative app records and monitors your partner’s snoring, allowing them to listen to their snores the following morning. Additionally, it generates personalized snoring reports, helping them visualize how frequently and loudly they snored throughout the night.
How Can This Help Your Partner Reduce Snoring?
SoundSleep is intended to be used in conjunction with snoring relief products or treatments. Your partner can track the effectiveness of their anti-snoring solutions, such as the Snorple Anti-Snoring Mouthpiece, by logging their experiences in the app. The reports will reveal how often they snored each morning.
The app also allows your partner to record lifestyle factors that might influence their snoring, such as late-night meals or alcohol consumption. This comprehensive view can help identify specific triggers for their snoring patterns. After consistent use over several nights, SoundSleep will begin to offer tailored advice on reducing snoring, enhancing both of your sleep quality.
Why is Monitoring Snoring Important?
Snoring can affect more than just your partner’s health; it can also impact your well-being if you share a bed. Research indicates that many partners of snorers experience various mental and physical health issues due to sleep deprivation, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, headaches, and chronic fatigue. Furthermore, snoring can be an early indicator of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA), a serious condition that compromises sleep quality and overall health. OSA occurs when the airway temporarily becomes blocked, causing the person to wake frequently to resume breathing, which leads to excessive daytime tiredness.
If you suspect your partner might be experiencing OSA, SoundSleep offers essential tools to evaluate this risk, including:
- Breathing Disruption Index (BDI): This feature tracks instances of interrupted breathing during the night.
- STOP-Bang Score: A questionnaire assessing snoring volume, daytime fatigue, and nighttime breathing patterns, along with factors like high blood pressure.
- Epworth Sleepiness Scale: A screening tool for excessive sleepiness that helps indicate the likelihood of sleep disorders.
Discussing snoring within a relationship can be challenging, but with SoundSleep, you can address the issue effectively. For more information on the app, visit Snorple’s website.
