Snoring? There's an APP for that

"Sleep Aid - the iPhone app for snorers."

Too bad there isn't one for my blackberry.
There are two rules of life. The first is don't tell everything that you know.

Interesting, Snorebert.

At least it's another way of getting the word about "sleep apnea" out there, along with the red flag connection with snoring. Wonder what they call "ok snoring" as opposed to "probable sleep apnea snoring." And wonder how many softly snoring people who do have sleep apnea will make the comparison and say, "Good, my snoring's just 'snoring' -- I don't have to worry."

On the other hand, perhaps someone who has never thought about sleep apnea will record himself/herself and be shocked enough to go get a sleep study. If even one does that, that's one more who can get treatment...finally.

Very interesting. I know just who I am going to send the app to : ) Knowing what an iPhone fan he is, he may just be interested in giving it a try. And Rested Gal, good point about the level of concern it may or may not sponsor.
