I wear my Apple Watch (model 4,2) all night, in sleep mode. This morning I had a noise notification of an average of 94 dB for three minutes at 1:59 AM! Well I sure didn’t wake up and hear anything and my Ring and Wyze cameras didn’t detect anything. As far as I can tell the house is still standing so is it possible to get a false alarm? I couldn’t find any other reports.
Got a tip for us?

Do you snore? I don’t know anything about how loudness is rated but I know my hubby can cause a lot of noise and doesn’t wake up.

You probably moved your arm and the sound of your blanket moving closely over the mics was probably just very amplified, like when you have a call and the other side scrubs something against the mic. Nothing to worry about.

You’ve never heard my husband snore.
The NIOSH app on my pone reports around 50db just ambient noise, and over 100 is I run my finger over the mic. I run live sound as a side gig, and yes, someone rubbing a mic will peak pretty high

Moving my finder along the cutout for the mic in my hard rubber case. With things up close mics freak out easily.
