Sleep Cycle's feature, ‘Who’s Snoring?’, knows if it's you or your partner snoring. With a bit of input from you as a user and a little bit of time for the machine learning algorithm, you will now know for a fact the snores that belong to you or those that belong to your partner.
To use this feature, you need to be a Premium subscription holder.
How do I activate the ‘Who’s Snoring?’ feature?
1. Activate Snore Detection: Go to the Profile tab > Scroll down to Premium > Select Who’s Snoring and choose On.
2. Enable Microphone for Motion Detection: Make sure the microphone is used for motion detection; otherwise, the app won’t be able to record sounds.
3. Configure Sound Detection: Go to Profile > More > Sound Detection. Choose one of the following options: 20 nights, 100 nights, or Forever.
4. Review Recorded Sounds: When a sound is recorded, find it in your Journal tab by scrolling down. Click on the sound, then click the button with a small magnifying glass to the left. Depending on the sound, Select Who’s Snoring (Me) or Who’s Snoring (Not Me) as a label.
It may take the app a few nights to start detecting and learning your patterns, but once it does, it will begin to recognize them automatically.
