myAir vs Sleep Apps: Which Is Better for CPAP Users?
Posted by KinMed - CPAP on 11th Oct 2026
Short answer: myAir shows if your CPAP is working. A sleep app shows how well you rest. Use both.
myAir vs sleep apps
- ResMed myAir: tracks mask seal, leak rate, usage hours, and breathing events (AHI). Gives a daily 0-100 score and reports for your doctor.
- Sleep apps: estimate sleep stages, snoring, and heart rate from your phone or watch.
The quick verdict
- myAir: is your therapy working properly?
- Sleep app: how well are you resting overall?

Wear your mask all night, and fix leaks with a better fit or a new mask cushion. Not sure which mask suits you? Compare nasal, full face and nasal pillow styles. Check with your clinician before changing any settings.
