  • Simple way to check heart rate

    Pretty easy to use once your finger’s in the right place.

    Developer Response

    Thank you very much for using heart rate detection. We will continue to improve to make your experience better and more accurate
  • Recent iOS update malfunctioned app

    This was a great app to check heart rate. However, since the recent update, users cannot see the EKG reading after heart rate is taken. Can this please be fixed? It was very useful to see a blip in sinus rhythm.
  • It’s just ok

    I like, is how quickly it starts to take your pulse. However, I’m not sure it is very accurate. For example in 1 reading it went between 88 - 62, but the app recorded the pulse as 66 because that is where it was when it stopped recording. It would be nice to have the option to average your pulse from within the reading. Which in this case would be 75. (88+62=150 divide by 2=75)
    It only averages your pulse for each day, which really isn’t useful. The average would be increased if one reading was during strenuous exercise. This really doesn’t provide any benefit. If it averaged out your recording for the different activity choices, that would be a bit more beneficial.

    There needs to be the option to add your own note before you save the results. You shouldn’t have to go back into results to input your own information. You should also be able to edit the activity option in case you accidentally hit the wrong one The activity choices are very limited, which affects the accuracy of the data. For example, one of these choices is “Normal” which is a very broad and ambiguous statement. What is normal activity for one person, isn’t normal for others. If a doctor was looking at the stored results, how are they supposed to know what “Normal” activity is. The other options are Resting, Walking & Exercise. Many people consider walking as exercise. So there are really only 3 choices. This app needs work!

  • APP DOES NOT WORK ON IPHONE 13 PRO MAX

    On iPhone 13 pro max the only way to get a measurement is to cover the lower camera of the three. The flash light is ergonomically impossible to cover. Even trying to do it rotating the finger does not produce a measurement. Measurements appear to inaccurate for sport and in general.
  • Unreliable an inaccurate

    you expect and you NEED any app that claims any health-related function, especially one that measures a critical vital sign such as heart rate to be accurate and repeatable.

    This app simply fails on both accounts.
    However, it is ONLY because I know what my heart rate normally is (I use blood pressure monitoring equipment 4 times per day which tells me, that I knew that when I saw a heart rate of 78 - it could not be accurate. So I repeated the measurement several times over and over again, using my fingertips - then different spots including my wrist, too if hand, forehead... And no two readings were even closely repeatable. Only two of the dozen or so readings were close to the actual value of 98, but I got many readings ranging from 68, several in the 70s, and several in the 80s.

    By returning these slower rates, it would easily miss what might be life-threatening tachycardia and the complete lack of accuracy and repeatability makes it useless for even routine monitoring.

    Not only can I not recommend it, but I must also warn people away from it.

  • Awesome App!

    I have been checking my heart rate using this app and is amazing. Currently I am under treatment for a rapid heart beat and when I measured my heart beat using the app it accurately reflects the condition by showing an abnormal heart rate.
  • Doesn’t work

    Lite worked so well I paid the $1.99 and upgraded to Pro, now it just turns on the light but doesn’t measure my heartbeats. I checked the Help file but it didn’t address the issue, and had no way to contact customer service. What a disappointment and waste of money.
  • Works great

    I have been using this app for a while now and I have found it very useful.
  • update for iphone 13 pro max?

    very difficult to use in this phone. I have been using it for a year before upgrading. great app. just on this phone with 3 cameras… very strange to get a reading and it be accurate like before. please advise
  • Works Perfectly

    Couldn’t fault this app if I tried. It’s clever, simple and reliable. I love that it hooks into Apple’s Health app, so I can keep a global overview of my health :)
