If you listen to podcasts / audiobooks in bed then you'll be sufferring from the annoyance of finding where in it you were when you fell asleep. To solve this, I built this app. It listens for snoring and as soon as it hears it it'll stop your podcast.

Congrats! I think adding support for Apple Watch could provide more conditions for determining when someone falls asleep. Right now, it's not very effective for people who don't snore. haha.

@zhiqi_shi this is something I need to look into more. I’ve tried to use some of the watch metrics but the problem I hit was that the watch doesn’t report its data to the phone until the watch gets put on the charger.

@markbridgesapps Indeed, this does depend on how open Apple is willing to be. Regardless, I think this product is a great idea and worth iterating on over the long term. Congrats on a successful launch!

This is pretty cool. I think the next level could be to sensor heart rate activity, slower breathing etc. Reaction to more sensitive parameters.

@busmark_w_nika yes I think richer data would be an improvement. I did some experimenting with the Apple health APIs but ran into challenges getting the data reported to me live. I need to look into it more.

This is a good product, would be good for pc as well. I can't tell you how many times I fell asleep watching a YouTube video on my laptop.
