Snorelab Tracks Your Snoring, Helps You Find Out Which Sleep Tips Work

iOS: If you have a snoring problem, there are plenty of things to try to alleviate it, but if you don't have a way to find out if your snoring is getting better, you'll never know what works. That's where Snorelab comes in.

Snorelab records you while you sleep every night, and tracks your snoring on a helpful graph that shows you the intensity of your snoring as the night dragged on. You'll see when you snored the most, when you were the quietest, how long it took you to fall asleep, and more. The app also records snore samples that you can play back, so if you go to a sleep specialist, you can play examples of your snoring for them so they can listen before bringing you in for a full sleep study.

The app also helps you gauge how effective different snoring remedies you try really are. If you go to sleep for a few nights wearing those nose strips, the app will show you whether they've actually improved your snoring (related: There's a great study worth reading in the journal Rhinology that says those strips actually work pretty well). As you try different methods, Snorelab will help you figure out what's working and what isn't.

You can see more of the app's features at the link below and in the video above. It'll set you back $4 on sale for a limited time—it's normally $5, and you can grab it in the iTunes App Store.
