Snore detecting not working - watch 4 classic

[Nush]

I have changed to a watch 4 classic and since an update it never detects or record my snoring (and no my snoring hasn't stopped as my hubby complains most days).

It does detect sleep and blood oxygen so I don't know why the snore detection isn't working. I checked the settings ref microphone access are correct. Has anyone been able to fix this?

Is the phone placed next to you and is it put on charge?  Is Snore detection enabled in Samsung Health and is set to Always?

[Nush]

Yes checked all that yesterday, mad sure the phone was plugged in and as close to me as I could get it (closer than it used to be when the detection worked)

You can try toggling it off and then on again. Not sure what else can be done. I will turn it on today and check if it's also an issue (GW4 Classic connected to S22+).

It is working for me. Did toggling it on and off help?

[Nush]

Yes it did work but I actually think I was at fault for it not working. I was putting my watch onto sleep mode which also put the phone into sleep and I had not given the Samsung Health monitor permission to work. I fixed that last night before I went to sleep. Now I can see why the hubby gives off about my snoring. Thank you for your replies.

I'm having the same issue since upgrading to my watch5 pro, can you tell me how you fixed it, please?

Got the same issue since update as well, samsung A53 with watch4. 

I have just got the snoring feature working. What I did was on my phone, select "modes" then "sleep" then select "turn on automatically" then turn on "sleeping". When i selected this and went to bed that night (still manually selecting the sleep button) I woke up to find my phone had the green dot in the upper right corner of the phone, showing the microphone in use by the health app, and had recorded my snoring.

Hope this helps.

Have a question My snore detection is not working everything is on My question is if I have Youtube playing rain sounds  will this stop the snoring detection working

For some unknown reason your post has just popped up in my phone. 6 months after you've posted it!!! Anyway, in answer to your question which you've probably already sorted. Yes it will stop the snore detection. As it uses the phone microphone to record the sound.

Better later than never I suppose 😂
