## What is BlueHeart Bluetooth Heart Rate?

Ditch the Strap! 

BlueHeart is the first app that lets you bridge the divide between your Apple Watch and your gym equipment like Peloton, Mirror, LifeFitness, Precor, Wahoo, Garmin, TrainerRoad, and more! By using Apple Health to record your workouts you can close your rings and have your heart rate data show up in your Peloton/Mirror dashboard or in front of you on your treadmill or rowing machine.

Works with all Bluetooth Heart Rate devices!
We follow the Bluetooth SIG spec for a heart rate monitor so BlueHeart lets you use your watch and phone as a Bluetooth heart monitor that shows up exactly as a chest strap would. If you can turn your watch and phone into a universal Bluetooth heart rate monitor, so why spend the extra money to buy one or waste the time putting one on when your watch is already on your wrist and BlueHeart is a tap away? 

Privacy Focused!
BlueHeart is built from the ground up to be privacy-focused. BlueHeart is GDPR, CCPA, and Apple No-Tracking complaint.​We use the app every day. We care about our privacy as much as you do, so your data is your data. We don't want it and we upload no identifiable data to our servers. We also use best in class ad partners that are also GDPR, CCPA, and Apple No-Tracking complaint.

Close Your Rings!
Save to Apple Health and close your rings just like the native workout app.
We get it. We like to close them too. So get the best of both worlds by having your watch calculate your calories using Apple's advanced algorithms and broadcast your heart rate over BLE.

### 1/5 — 認識はするものの

*2025-09-20, version 1.7*

igpsports bsc100sで認識し接続するものの、即接続が切れて使い物にならない。課金したこと後悔しかない。

### 1/5 — Poor connection

*2024-10-17, version 1.7*

Every time I try and start a workout it says connection error and retry

### 1/5 — 認識するも連携はせず

*2024-03-01, version 1.7*

サイコンの iGPSPORT BSC300にて認識はするのですが残念ながら連携はしません。私の環境では使い物にならなかったので☆は一つとします。

### 4/5 — Worth it so far...

*2024-02-27, version 1.7*

I have an Apple Watch Series 1 that I use for heart rate monitoring in Zwift. My watch is stuck at WatchOS 6.3 and Zwift stopped supporting it in late 2022. I switched to the free HeartCast app and that worked OK but was glitchy and had many brief dropouts. With the last iPhone update to OS 17.3.1, HeartCast disappeared from my watch and according to the App Store, BlueHeart was the only app still supporting my watch. With the free version, the ad would not display so the app wouldn't work. I paid for the Pro version in hopes that it would work and it worked perfectly - connecting immediately and no dropouts during my Zwift ride 👍
I took off one star for the ad-supported version not working and will update later if I have any issues.

### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2024-01-26, version 1.7*

Does not work. Do not buy. Wasted workout time.

### 1/5 — Poor.

*2023-11-20, version 1.7*

Watch a 30 second ad to be told to try again, but first watch another 30second advert. No thanks, disgusting practice.

### 1/5 — Next to Useless

*2023-03-15, version 1.7*

Tried every setting combo but needed to remove and add to bike computer every time. Broke Bike computer to mobile phone connection, requiring it to be removed and added every time (Wahoo Bolt v2). Strange interface/config. Needs a set of predefined connection setting for optimal use. Don’t waste your money, just buy the strap.

### 5/5 — Pro-form Pro 5000 - iFit - Works great!

*2023-03-02, version 1.7*

Love the app, works great! Note that you have to disable adblockers for it to work properly. I also have to power cycle my treadmill after each session. I think these two solutions will resolve 95% of the issues people run into. I use it every day!

My only request for the app is it would be amazing if it could increase the frequency that it reads / broadcasts my heart rate as the competitor app does.

### 1/5 — Won’t connect to machine more than once, no iPad support

*2023-02-19, version 1.7*

App passed the compatibility test once then wont reconnect subsequently to do an actual workout. No iPad ui support just stretched phone layout. Health not supported on iPad. No option for a refund.

### 1/5 — Credit card for free app

*2023-01-17, version 1.7*

Seriously - a credit card is required to activate a “FREE” app?  Forget it!
