    That shouldn't be happening unless you accidently pressed Pulse Ox under "Glances." This can easily happen if you just want to look at the last pulse ox reading. You shouldn't tap on it, because that will trigger a manual reading.

    Also, pulse ox is not something most people need to be running all night long. I typically have this turned off all the time and only use it manually - Sensors & Accessories > Pulse Oximeter > Pulse Ox Mode > Manual Check. This is up to you, but it will take a toll on battery life.
