## What is Sleep Recorder & Alarm?

Sonya listens to your night and turns it into something you can actually hear: snoring, talking, coughing - cut into separate episodes you can play with one tap.

WHAT THE MORNING LOOKS LIKE
- One main number for the night: the share of the recording with snoring if you snore, otherwise a quietness score out of 100
- Episodes sorted by kind: snoring, sleep talking, coughing, breathing, movement
- The longest silence, the longest episode and the noisiest hour of the night
- A strip of the whole night: tap anywhere to listen from that moment

LISTENING IS FREE, AND STAYS FREE
Recording a night, playing back any part of it, the breakdown into episodes and the alarm cost nothing. Charging people to hear their own recordings is the loudest complaint in this category, and Sonya does not do it.

CUT OUT A SOUND AND SEND IT
Any episode can be saved as a separate audio file - to show a doctor, or to settle the argument about what the night actually sounded like.

"THAT'S NOT ME"
A partner, a child, a pet, a fan on the shelf. Mark the episode and it stops counting towards your night; the score is recalculated straight away.

AN ALARM THAT REALLY RINGS
Set the time and the days. Before bed Sonya checks what could keep the alarm quiet - notifications off, sound off, Low Power Mode - and says so on the Night screen. On iOS 26 it rings over silent mode and Focus.

RECORDING IN SHORT SEGMENTS
Sonya saves audio in short segments and keeps a recording log on your iPhone.

THE SOUND STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
Analysis runs on the iPhone's own engine. Recordings are never uploaded and never sent anywhere. Delete one night, or all of them, whenever you want.

Apple Health
Sonya can save every night to Apple Health as time in bed: one record per night, from the moment recording starts to the moment it stops. It is off until you turn it on: Settings, section Apple Health, "Save nights to Apple Health". Sonya writes nothing else there - no sleep stages - and reads nothing from Apple Health.

WITH A SUBSCRIPTION OR LIFETIME ACCESS
- This night and the one before, side by side
- A picture with the summary of the night - to show a doctor or a partner
- Nights with the mark next to nights answered "No": what a mouthguard, earplugs or a late dinner change (marking itself stays free)
- Export to a spreadsheet: nights and episodes in two files
- Week-by-week trend: quieter or noisier
- Remembers “not me” sounds and marks similar ones at once
- Audio kept for up to 90 nights instead of 30
Lifetime is one payment with no renewals, and it works for your family too.
Nothing paid is needed to record a night, to listen to it or to wake up.

Sonya is not a medical device. It does not diagnose sleep disorders or apnea, and it does not track sleep stages: it records what can be heard, and shows it honestly.
