What do your oxygen levels say about your daily health?
Discover how SpO₂ visualization can reveal more than you think
Oxygen levels during sleep
SpO₂, or blood oxygen saturation, is more than just a number, it’s a daily indicator of how efficiently your body absorbs and uses oxygen.Visualizing it regularly can help you understand how your lifestyle, environment, and habits affect your well-being.
Oxygenation efficiency: a daily health indicator
SpO₂ measures how much oxygen your blood contains, helping you understand if your body is getting enough oxygen. Visualizing these levels daily unveils patterns and fluctuations that may be indicative of various factors influencing your overall health.
Environmental impact: insights into surroundings
Spo₂ can vary depending on where you are. Altitude, pollution, and temperature2 all play a role. By comparing your readings with your surroundings, you gain insight into how your environment affects your oxygenation.
Exploring your SpO₂ trends
The app displays your daily SpO₂ data so you can observe patterns and changes over time. These visualizations are intended to help you reflect on your sleep experience and lifestyle factors.
Use the app to track and reflect
Make the most of your data by logging your observations in the sleep journal. It becomes your personal wellness journal, helping you adjust your habits and engage in your progress.
