Sleep apnea and snoring monitoring

Sleep Analyzer (EU and ROW)

How does the analyser figure out snoring and sleep apnea?

Apnea: I share a double bed with my partner, and for a couple of nights now he's been sleeping on the sofa since he's been sick and watching TV in the middle of the night. During these nights my sleep apnea readings plummet to 1-2/hour, from regularly being between 8-15/hour. The analyser is firmly on my side of the bed only.

Snoring: The sensor reports no snoring while my Sleep tracker on my phone clearly records me snoring by myself :)

So right now I do not trust the results it is showing me.

    No answer to your question, but similar issues here. Usually I have no to mild (normal) sleep apnea, according to the device. Last night, storm Franklin caused a very loud rumbling noise, and this morning Withings Healthmate reports a) a much longer time to fall asleep than reported by Fitbit and myself, and b) severe and continuous sleep apnea. What is Sleep Analyzers sleep apnea detection based upon? Can it mistake storms for sleep apnea?
