What is the difference between CPAP and APAP setting on the Air-Mimi? I use a CPAP. should I be using the APAP setting?
Also, is the Air-Mini compatible with an IPhone 11 Pro?

Re: CPAP vs. APAP
Welcome to the forum. Be patient and read many posts. There is a lot to be learned.
See ---> http://cpaptalk.com/wiki/index.php/AutoPAP
It's not listed on the spec sheet, but ResMed's practice is to update the app to cover all new iPhone models. I can't imagine that they haven't done this for the 11 Pro.
Re: CPAP vs. APAP
I have an AirMini. I use an AirSense 10 AutoSet for Her at home, which has 3 modes: CPAP, APAP, and APAP for her. The AirMini has the same 3 modes so I was able to set it up exactly the same way. Same mode, same pressure range. That is why I purchased that particular machine instead of one of the other travel machines.
I do actually use the for her mode. I have tried both straight CPAP mode and APAP mode (on my home machine) and my AHI was not as well controlled as with the for her mode.
