That is like saying that your car will only get 35MPG sometimes and the rest of the time run 20MPG...(Same road, same speed , same time of day, same time of the year...for the nickpickers...))
IF the sensors are so unreliable they cannot be trusted to get good daily reports HOW can they give good long term reports??
AND AS I run a ASV machine I am putting my life (so to speak) in the hands of these very same sensors....

Clearly, as people become dependent on such software, they get frustrated. That does not mean that they do not appreciate what the author has done, even though -- through frustration -- they do not express that appreciation.
One problem with any OSA software is that -- according to my sleep doc, who works with equipment manufacturers -- the accuracy of the sensors in the machinery is questionable. He says that -- in essence -- daily numbers should be taken with a grain of salt, although trends may be significant. Only compliance data is accurate.
I have not been able to find any specs that either back his allegation or are contrary to it. Have you seen any?
