Contact SnoreLab Record Your Snoring Support

I downloaded this app to try it out. It seems to work well for the snoring part. Then I started to get all sorts of ads for stuff I was talking about during the day pop up on my computer. Went to my privacy settings and snore lab was the only thing with mic access. It tells me that they are listening all the time and selling the stuff to advertising companies.

***Update. They sent me a message that they don’t track unless a session is active and then an article on digital advertising. While the article was an interesting read, and they were blaming either someone I work with and somehow another app knew they were talking to me or I googled something….I will say that it was not a random coincidence that 4 different random things that have to do with work popped up on my browser. Never googled the stuff we were talking about because we have warehouse stock the guys can grab stuff from. Coincidentally once I deleted the app, it all stopped. Maybe it was someone else or crazy digital advertising. All I can speak to is what I saw and experienced. My mic didn’t have any other permissions and it all coincided with this app.

The latest update doesn’t allow you to set an audio event as “not snoring” from the main waveform overview. Instead, you have to go thru a list of 374 recorded audio events on a separate screen, one by one, which is painstaking and entirely impractical.

Now I can’t remove false positives, for instance when I move around in bed or get up at night. Without the curation, my snore score is no longer accurate. Thanks for degrading the functionality of your #1 tool. It was working fine before the latest update.

Also, now when I press stop on the audio from the main page, it closes the audio view and I lose my place in the 8 hour waveform. In order to return to where I was, I have to hunt and peck in the waveform to find out where I was. This is frustrating and impractical. The app was working fine, why was it changed to make it unusable?

I started using this app because I wanted to optimize my sleep and see if I was having any difficulty breathing in my sleep (in the past I have been someone who snores, but that was many years ago, and I do not have apnea nor require cpap).

It's a useful app in that it very effectively records the entire night (however creepy that might sound). However its reporting of snoring is not very accurate. I live in an urban area, and it identifies noises that aren't even very loud, like a car driving down my street, as snoring. Presumably because it is louder than the sound of my breathing (one of the useful features of this app is that it is sensitive enough to notice regular breathing rhythms, so I've been grateful to learn that I am actually breathing well).

So it's useful for examining your breathing, but it's not very accurate at detecting snoring in an environment that has random ambient sounds.
