Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
• Can DidgeriTU reduce apnea events in patients with non-severe obstructive sleep apnea? Researchers will compare DidgeriTU with a sham device to see how the apnea event has changed.
Participants will:
* Use DidgeriTU or sham device for 3 month
* Do an online questionnaire once a month during the study
* Home sleep test, lung function test, and tongue strength test at the start and end of the study
