Why only snoring detection while on charge now

[Nickh101]

Very disappointing to see they've changed the snoring detection to only work while charging ? Why should it matter if your phone is charged when you go to bed ? 

I've even tried having it plugged into a charging brick and that still didn't work so it appears it has to be plugged into the mains which isn't possible all the time for me at least. 

I urge samsung to give us this flexibility back to have it record regardless of being plugged in...

I've just enabled and it only mentions that it increases power consumption and to consider charging but it is not preventing it from working

These are the messages I get. I even tried a powerbank and it still failed to record that night. I've been into all the settings maybe I need to call tech support

And battery was charged at what level? Maybe should on 70 or 80%

Usually 90+ when I go to bed

All is left, as you said it too, is to ask Samsung support via Members app or call and see what they advise

Will do thanks

It seems being on charge was always a requirement
