Do I Snore or Grind Reviews

I’ve been told I snore.. interesting to hear the variety of snoring through the night based on positions of sleep, & makes me more aware in case I need a cpap in future. But most importantly I also have proof now that I don’t grind my teeth & the fractures at the base of my teeth my new Dentist noted last few visits (and wanted me to buy a $200 custom night mouth guard) telling me I grind teeth at night (which I doubted). I told her a few years ago my bite was ruined by another dentist & THAT has been my problem. I can’t comfortably bite down without my jaw shifting to the left to seat my teeth. Over the last 5 years I’ve adjusted to having a bad bite.. by keeping my jaw slack but chewing is obviously the problem. A few dentists I’ve tried since have said repairing my bad bite means grinding down what I know is 3/4 of my natural teeth surface to fix it. That’s insane. Id only be interested if they agreed to build back only the tooth surface area the Dentist ruined 5 years ago. But now due to DoISnoreorGrind I know the bad bite is causing the fractures of the base of my teeth, not grinding. I’m 60 & have all my teeth with no caps, no root canals.. nothing but fillings. I had previously figured even with the bad bite I could keep all my teeth for life but the bite is apparently causing fractures that are now problems, so I want to discuss other options with the Dentist or find one who will listen. Who knew a sleep app could solve an issue with my teeth.

DoISnoreorGrind is great- when it works. It records all sounds so that you can know if you really do snore or not. It hears very well- so much that I can hear how often I roll over while sleeping. My friends who have DoISnoreorGrind and I have had many laughs sharing and comparing our bad snoring nights. It would be a great tool for someone who needs to know if they (or their sleeping partner) has sleep apnea. The only problem is that lately- like the last 9 times I’ve set it to record- it just turns itself off, so there's nothing in the morning when I want to listen. It had done that occasionally over the last six months, so I wondered if I bumped my phone during the night or something, but now it’s clear that it IS recording (I can SEE the red light/button at the top of the phone when it has started), and then after I go to sleep, it just stops, so there’s no recording at all. It’s very frustrating, because I want to know if the expensive air purifier I bought last month is helping me sleep better or not. Do I Snore has not recorded once since I got the purifier, so I have no idea. Since I now have a real reason (not just to laugh at myself!) to want to hear my snoring, I’m really disappointed that it’s not working. Therefore, I can only give it two stars.

I have been using DoISnoreorGrind for 4 days now. DoISnoreorGrind works generally well and helps me realize my level of snoring and grinding problems. However, I gave 4 stars because I found that it can be improved a little more. One feature I found missing is adding Note. I was testing my problem with several anti-snore devices and physical conditions. I wished that I could add notes or title to the history to help reminded myself. If DoISnoreorGrind continue to be free of charge but with this additional feature, I would rate it to 5 stars. However, I would recommend this very good app to others. DH

THANK YOU so much for this free app! I was so impressed by how it can pick up my snoring and bruxism. Hearing the clarity of my snoring explains the location and depth of my problem. I like the time line showing when it occurs and also the sleep state that I am in. Excellent app! Is it the answer to how to fix the problem overnight? No! It’s tool that can help diagnose the depth of the snoring problem, breathing issues while sleeping and grinding my teeth. It’s a tool that helps explain why my head hurts in the morning, without checking into a sleep lab to have them tell me the same thing, just on a smaller less in-depth scale. Kudos to the developer of this free tool. Blessings to you!

DoISnoreorGrind does really detect sound of teeth grinding well. But it also records several samples of the heater sound when it is on. Wish there was a way to calibrate so that DoISnoreorGrind would know it is just white noise.
Another complaint I have is that I don’t quite understand the sleep cycles. For example, when the yellow line is all the way down, does that mean deep sleep or REM sleep? And when it is between the “Light sleep” and “deep sleep” marks, does that mean deep sleep or light sleep? There should be a page explaining what the graph means.

I am very impressed with DoISnoreorGrind. After using a few others, and even paying for one, this one is better than any I’ve tried. It picks up my snoring and records it each night, and I love the opportunity to ‘verify’ my recordings in the morning. The only thing I would change is the 30 minute wait time in starting the recordings each night, other than that — five stars all the way!

There is no legitimate reason for these people to require your name, phone number, address, email address, and other personal information that can expose you to many problems from the very serious to the mundane. DoISnoreorGrind worked just fine for a long time before they started reaching more deeply for our personal information. It’s a real shame, because DoISnoreorGrind was useful, but I’m sure there are others offering apps without these privacy intrusions. With all the data breeches that happen all the time, they cannot make any credible promise your personal information will be safe, even if they had a legitimate reason to ask for it.

I wish that it could record sleep talking because I sleep talk and I have downloaded a bunch of apps are ready but all of them cost money and this one doesn’t so I thought I would try it out but it’s only about snoring and I don’t snore so I would love if that did an update so it was also about sleep talking not just snoring.

I just wish that since I have earphones that is a headband and Bluetooth to my phone I could listen to it while sleeping bc DoISnoreorGrind won’t be able to hear it and i found a wonderful sleep aid music album “Healing Meditation zone and pure spa massage music & Serenity Music Relaxation” thats the title y’all who love to sleep to birds or water and much more it’s the greatest calming album.

Something I’ve been noticing lately, sometimes it posted the same grinding sound twice (with one usually a slightly longer recording but the same sound nonetheless) Not sure if its a bug or it’s always been the case, but I hope it’ll be fixed asap

I’ve tried a lot of apps, and non of them offers the same functionality for free as this one. There is no annoying subscription proposals or adverts you have to deal with just before going to sleep, and this is exactly what I was looking for. Great stuff, thank you guys for it.
It would be great to have Apple Watch app too, but not critical.

I had purchased all kinds of things to try and stop snoring. DoISnoreorGrind helped me to figure out what type of snorer I was. Then it gave me ideas for tools to help to stop my snoring. I needed a mouth guard. The mouth guard has stopped my snoring! It sure has made a difference in my marriage since we are not up all night with snoring. Thank you!

Living alone, I was not aware of my snoring until I traveled with a friend. DoISnoreorGrind has helped me to monitor my snoring as I try new solutions and learn which ones help. With proper mouth and throat muscle exercises, I can see a clear improvement and hope to remedy this problem before our next trip. I so appreciate DoISnoreorGrind!

So this does do what the title says... however, if your kid comes into the room in the middle of the night to due to a nightmare any talking... that is counted as snoring. If you wake up early and watch videos in bed that will count as grinding. Both of which invalidate the data for the night.
I think this is funny, it’s picked up my dogs snoring too.

Maybe it just needs an update. However, DoISnoreorGrind on my iPad crashes every time I try to remove a recording or delete a day. The phone works better. Accurate for the most part and useful. Thanks!

Love DoISnoreorGrind except for one oddly occurring issue. When I play back the session and use the “forward” button to go through the recordings it doesn’t play them back in the order they were recorded.

I.E. it will go from 3:32 AM, then to 3:29 AM then to 3:35 AM, then to 3:33 AM etc. it bounces all over the place. Very strange.

This is happening on IOS 12.0.1.

The ability to delete a particular recording and statistics is a nice feature.

It would also be nice to adjust the vibration threshold.

I found this to be very helpful. I tested in my own and seems to be a great screening tool.
I recommend that you use it while you sleeping by yourself for better accuracy.

Was spectacle at first, but was pleasantly surprised. Not only do I snore I am a tongue snorer and was given several remedies.
My only recommendation would be The Store easier to access.

Better than expected app , user friendly . Too bed you can not share or send snoring files via email message or other apps. But still a good app

One of the best imo. The only problem I have found is the alarm is too loud and there is no way I can find to adjust it.
