Track your sleep stages, snoring, sleep talking, and nighttime breathing in one place. No subscription. No accounts. No servers. No ads. Wear your Apple Watch for sleep stages, heart rate, HRV, respiratory rate, blood oxygen, and wrist temperature. Add your iPhone for snore detection, sleep talking detection, breathing pause detection, and a full audio timeline of the night. Use both for the complete picture. Everything stays on your device. Audio never leaves your phone. Press record before bed. Wake up to your sleep score, stage breakdown, and every notable sound from the night. Playable, taggable, exportable. KEY FEATURES - Apple Watch Companion See last night's summary, browse past nights, and view live biometrics during a recording. Stop a recording from your wrist. - Sleep Stages from Apple Watch & Wearables Pull sleep stages, heart rate, HRV, respiratory rate, blood oxygen, and wrist temperature straight from your watch or any wearable that syncs to Apple Health. - Audio Sleep Stage Estimation Sleep stage classification from audio alone. Breathing regularity, breathing rate, movement, and snoring patterns combine to estimate Light, Deep, REM, and Awake. - Hypnogram Source Picker Switch the nightly sleep stage chart between audio analysis and Apple Watch data. Compare both views of the same night. - Sleep Score Watch Complication Add the Snore Timeline complication to any watch face for last night's sleep score at a glance. - Snore Detection Every snore captured with volume, duration, and frequency. Tap any snore to play it back. - Snore Nudge When sustained snoring is detected, your Apple Watch taps your wrist so you shift position, without waking you. Every nudge is saved to the nightly summary with how your snoring responded in the minutes around it. Requires a paired Apple Watch. - Snores Per Minute See your snore rate charted across the whole night against your personal baseline, with a breakdown of how snoring built up and settled around each time you woke. - Visual Snore Timeline See your entire night at a glance. Enable Loud Sound Detection for frequency-based coloring showing low, mid, and high frequencies. - AirPods & Bluetooth Recording Record through AirPods or a Bluetooth headset instead of the phone mic, with automatic level calibration for consistent volume. - Sleep Talking Detection Speech recognized as sleep talking and displayed on your timeline with playable clips. - Breathing Pause Detection Flags 10+ second silence followed by a recovery breath, a pattern that may explain poor sleep quality. - Sleep Score & Insights A nightly score based on duration, stage balance, efficiency, time to fall asleep, awakenings, and snoring. - Sleep Factors Tag what shaped your night, like caffeine, alcohol, or a late meal, and see which factors line up with better or worse sleep over time. - Sleep Schedule & Wake-Up Alarm Set a bedtime reminder and a wake-up time. Recording stops at your wake-up time with an optional alarm sound. - Smart Wake Up Alarm Wake during a light-sleep moment in a window before your set time, so you start the day less groggy. The alarm fades in from quiet, and still rings at your set time if a light-sleep window never comes. - Wake by Wrist Tap Wake to silent taps on your Apple Watch instead of a sound, so you can get up without disturbing a partner. Requires a paired Apple Watch. - Loud Sound Detection Capture any sound above a volume threshold. Useful for alarms, pets, or mumbling. - Weekly Trends Track progress week over week with charts comparing duration, scores, and efficiency. - Custom Range Export Pick a date range and choose what to include: nightly summaries, stages, episodes, biometrics, and audio. Generate CSV reports for sleep specialists. - Completely Private Everything on your device. No account required. Audio never leaves your phone.
