How to use Sonouroflow

The accuracy of the results obtained depends on complying with the following simple guidelines designed to create standardized test conditions:
  • Use the same toilet, urinate directly into the water, and maintain the same distance to the phone while recording.
  • Do not speak or make other sounds during voiding, do not use bathroom fans, and eliminate other possible sources of sounds that might disturb the quality of the recordings.
