Movement notification

This article summarizes how the Movement notification works, and how to activate it.

Somnofy registers movements with great accuracy. This can make it possible to get a warning of increased mobility during the night, and in the best case get a warning in advance of a person trying to get out of bed.


The movement notification gives you the opportunity to receive a notification if a user starts to move a lot during the night.

Under Notification rules and logs, select Add notification rule.

Select Movement. If you choose Default settings, the requirements for a notification to be sent:
  • Minimum time present (in the measurement area): 10 min
  • Average movement last: 5 min, Is greater than or equal to: 50


This can be changed if you press Advanced.

It can also be selected whether an OK notification should be sent if the user calms down.

In addition, you can adjust the Active time so that the notifications are only sent at night, for example.

Every patient is different. We recommend waiting a couple of nights with data collection and noting nights and times with a lot of movement. You then have a good starting point for setting customized settings and avoiding an unnecessarily large number of notifications. Feel free to contact Somnofy Support if you would like assistance.
