The ResMed myAir app has officially integrated smartwatch functionality, aiming to enhance the experience and treatment effectiveness for sleep apnoea patients. This update lets users monitor their Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy data more easily, wherever they are — a convenient option for patients who want to stay on top of their sleep health.
What is the ResMed myAir App?
The ResMed myAir app is a treatment management platform specifically designed for users of ResMed CPAP machine like AirSense and AirCurve. The app provides a comprehensive overview of treatment effectiveness with specific metrics:
- Daily Sleep Score: An overall score reflecting daily sleep quality.
- Usage Hours: The total number of hours you use CPAP each night.
- Mask Fit: How well the mask fits.
- Events per Hour (AHI): The number of breathing pauses per hour.
Developed with ease of use in mind, the myAir app for Android and iOS allows users to access it anytime via their phone or web browser. Users simply perform a quick ResMed myAir login using their personal email and password to start tracking their therapy. For users in Australia, the ResMed myAir login Australia option can be used to ensure compliance with local data policies.
Notably, the new myAir Health Connect feature allows direct linking with major health applications like Apple Health or Google Fit/Health Connect. This enables myAir to display activity data, heart rate, BMI, calories burned, and sleep duration helping to complete a comprehensive picture of the user's health and thereby improve the effectiveness of respiratory therapy.

FAQs
1. Does myAir sync with Apple Health?
Yes. Apple Health is the default connectivity platform on iOS, and myAir receives overall health data through it.
2. Does myAir work with an Apple Watch?
Yes. You'll need to sync your Apple Watch with your iPhone and grant myAir data access through Apple Health.
3. Can you detect sleep apnoea with a smart watch?
Not reliably. Current smartwatches can record some indicators such as heart rate, activity level, and breathing rate, but they cannot diagnose sleep apnoea. However, when using ResMed myAir App Integrates with Smartwatches, you will get a comprehensive picture that helps you combine treatment more effectively.
