Friends from 9to5Google have discovered that Google is currently working on cough and snore detection feature that will be part of the Digital Health Suite. In the latest beta update to the app, it was discovered that Google will offer to snore and cough tracking; it is intended to be part of the bedtime mode section and will use the phone’s microphone to listen for snoring or coughing.

In addition, Digital Wellbeing works with Google Clock’s sleep tracking feature, which actually tracks the owner’s sleep time using the phone’s gyroscope and ambient light sensor.

Users can also go ahead and turn on cough and snore detection during scheduled bedtime, which will be displayed along with other options such as Show Custom and Do Not Disturb, and enabling this feature requires granting microphone permissions.

It is worth noting that the sensor is only active during the time you set. Data on coughing and snoring will also appear along with the information present in the app’s usage. The end user will get a graphical view of the week, as well as the average number of coughs and average snoring time.

The upcoming feature will also show you how long you have slept without coughing or snoring. There is no given news on when this feature will be available on the digital health app.
