This feature is intended to detect signs of moderate to severe sleep apnea in the form of significant breathing disruptions in users 18 years and older, over a two-night monitoring period. It is intended for on-demand use and requires two nights of valid data within a 10-day period.

This feature is not intended for users who have previously been diagnosed with sleep apnea. Users should not use this feature to replace traditional methods of diagnosis and treatment by a qualified clinician.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
