In this episode of Mobile Development with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna dive into how modern mobile apps use on-device AI to detect sleep apnea in real time. They explore the Apple Watch's 2024 apnea detection feature that led to a flood of third-party apps, the technical challenge of processing blood oxygen and movement data locally on a smartphone or wearable, and the regulatory hurdles that developers face. Lucas breaks down the key sensors—pulse oximetry and accelerometer—and how on-device neural networks distinguish apnea events from normal breathing pauses. Luna raises user privacy concerns and the risk of false positives. The episode also touches on how the 2023 FDA clearance of the first over-the-counter sleep apnea app opened the floodgates. Perfect for mobile developers interested in health tech, edge AI, or sensor fusion.
