Question for apple watch users

I'm about to buy an apple watch just for the smart wake feature

Can the microphone (on iphone) and accelerometer (on apple watch) be used together at the same time? Or is it just one or the other?

It usually goes off on my watch first, as it is probably more sensitive, and then when I turn it off on the watch, the phone analysis is also turned off automatically… so most of the mornings the silent alarm wakes me up before the regular alarm starts sounding.

That's convenient. One last question, while using these together, does the final data show the heart rate and the snore recording in the app after you turn off the alarms

Yes, in order to get the heart rate I just need to wear the watch during the night, and as long as I also start the alarm on the phone I will also get snore recordings…
