  • Not working

    I have the app both on my phone and Apple Watch but it’s not reading any data? No data is coming on the watch and when I open the app on my phone it just says “no data found”. I have a series 3... is this too old? What’s the issue

    Developer Response

    Sorry to hear that there are no HRV measurements available on your devices. Even the Series 1 devices should be able to record HRV measurements, so your Series 3 device is not too old. There are two possibilities for the lack of HRV data 1) lack of health permissions for HRV Tracker 2) for some reason your Series 3 device is not capable of recording HRV measurements (is it bough from the US?). You can check your health permissions on your iPhone: open Settings > Privacy > Health > HRV Tracker > Check that at least Heart Rate Variability is enabled. If the health permissions were ok but still no can be seen in HRV Tracker, you can check the Health app on your iPhone to see if your Apple Watch has been able to record any HRV measurements: Open the Health app > Browse > Heart > Heart Rate Variability > Do you see any values there?

  • Crashes upon opening, can’t get refund, issuing chargeback

    The watch app crashes upon opening and the complication doesn’t seem to do anything. Can’t seem to get a refund from Apple so issuing a chargeback.

    Sorry to hear that the watch app crashes on your device. Could it be that your Apple Watch has no HRV readings or there is something wrong with the health data permissions. Is the HRV Tracker iPhone app working correctly? Please contact us at contact@sydvesti.com so that we can help you with the issue. When contacting us can you tell us what Apple Watch series are you using and what is the watchOS version installed on your device.
  • Continuous monitoring?

    I like this app for my Apple Watch other than the fact I can’t see my HRV as a continuous metric over time. I only see my HRV when I use the Breathe app which takes atleast 1 minute to use. Is there a way to just use this app and see my HRV continuously??

    Developer Response

    Your Apple Watch should automatically record a few HRV readings during the day even without using the Breathe app. Depending on the series of your Apple Watch and how active you have been during the day your Apple Watch should record ~ 2-12 measurements. In order to be able to record your HRV the Apple Watch tries to detect time slots when you are not moving. As an example on an average office day my series 4 Apple Watch records 6-12 measurements, but during weekends when I am more active I will end up with a couple of morning and evening measurements. Unfortunately Apple does not allow developers to trigger HRV measurements or RR intervals that could be used to calculate the users HRV. Hopefully this will change in the future.

  • Easy to use and clean interface

    It’s a cool app, easy to use and interpret, clean interface. I’d give the app a 5 star and be a major advocate for it, if it had three key features. 1) consistent with how the Whoop device operates based on their extensive research on HRV and usage by professional athletes and coaches, I’d like to see the option to have the app use only one critical hrv value in place of a daily average of multiple readings, namely a reading taken during deep sleep at night. This could be a reading associated with the lowest heart rate at night while sleeping. The reason for this feature is that your hrv reading when you first wake up in the morning is most indicative of your physiological capacity to take on strain for the day. A daily average is not as informative because there are multiple factors during the day that can decrease or increase your hrv, which may not be indicative of your capacity to take on more strain. Alternatively the app could just use a reading immediately after you wake up and you are at resting heart rate. 2) allow the app to sync with TrainingPeaks, sending only only that single deep sleep or morning value. 3) provide some interpretation of the hrv trends. This will require the app to establish a baseline over time so that it knows what your lows and highs are, which in turn can offer coaching advice. For example a 50 may be a high value for an untrained non athlete but low for an athlete who can get values above 100 consistently. Hrv is meaningless to the average person without some analysis relative to their fitness level, baseline data etc. It’s just a bunch of numbers. So, I got an hrv value of 32 today. So what? Should I run that 20k or not? Should I take the day off or do more active recovery?

  • Great app for training and overall health

    I used this combined with HRV Training. This app gives me a my daily or last read HRV on my watch. This was exactly what I was looking for. Has just enough features to make it valuable for me. Keep up the good work!
  • SDNN Hrv

    Finally on my watch. I use the breath app to measure and this app shows it and the trends. No phone needed.
  • HRV review

    I wanted this app to work, bc I wanted to track my HRV. However from day one it did not work on my iPhone. It crashed every single time. Did work on my watch, but never could see the information in my iPhone. I will say they did communicate well via email, but they were never ever to fix the app from crashing. I paid for this app, and getting a refund is very inconvenient bc you must go through a million steps from Apple to refund you.
