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 — Doesn’t work *2022-06-25, version 1.7* Did a test. It connected. Upgraded to pro and will no longer connect to Garmin 1040. Very frustrating. Waste of time and money. ### 1/5 — Are you serious? *2022-05-25, version 1.7* Sure, make me watch an ad to use an app for free, but an ad for guns right as another school shooting is making headlines? Deleting the app now and forever. Check your sponsors… ### 2/5 — 有料版も微妙 *2022-05-24, version 1.7* Lezyne mega gpsで使用。 サイコンとのペアリングが、必ず途中で切れて心拍が表示されなくなる。 再度ペアリングするも検知できず、全て一からやり直しする必要がある。有料版なのにお金の無駄かも。 ### 1/5 — ブライトンs500に対応してない *2022-05-22, version 1.7* 現在brytons500に対応しておらず使えません 早く使えるようになるようお願いします ### 1/5 — Didn’t work with my Garmin 1030 plus bike computer *2022-05-11, version 1.7* Garmin had no problem finding the BlueHeart app during pairing, it just NEVER got any data. The app said it was broadcasting at 80 bpm every time I checked over a 5’ span of time, conversely the watch was always saying my heart rate was 60-65 bpm. I couldn’t get the app to work so after futzing around for 5’ I just deleted the app. TRY BEFORE YOU BUY! ### 2/5 — Stopped connecting *2022-03-31, version 1.7* This was a hit or miss for a while and now it just stopped working altogether. I’m so annoyed with this and will have to look for another app ### 1/5 — 使えません *2022-02-27, version 1.7* GARMIN EDGEにはセンサーとしては認識されるもののペアリングは一向に出来ずサイコンに心拍表示もできません。 ### 1/5 — Полная фигня… *2022-02-25* Задача: транслировать пульс с Apple Watch на велокомпьютер… 1. Приложение зачем-то лезет в Health и пытается записывать туда тренировки… Зачем? Велокомпьютер запишет. Дайте просто пульс. 2. Перед стартом предлагается смотреть 30 секунд рекламы… Подключается к велокомпьютер через раз и реже. 3. Если закрыть приложение на iPhone связь обрывается. То есть очевидно, что трансляция идёт не с часов, а с телефона… Оставить телефон дома и поехать только с часами - нет, это невозможно. Ну и в добавок стрёмный и не продуманный интерфейс… ### 1/5 — Does not work. Period. *2022-02-16, version 1.7* I really wanted this app to live up to its promises but after a year of futzing, this app simply does not work reliably. Or at all, it seems lately. I started with the free version and it worked pretty well. Well enough to make the pro version worth it. That was a mistake. Connection issues constantly. The instructions are convoluted asking you to press buttons or dismiss dialogs that don’t actually don’t exist. Completely useless Don’t spend your money on this. ### 1/5 — Clueless developer *2022-02-04, version 1.7* This app just doesn’t work. Period. Never connects with watch. It complained the watch app wasn’t installed on first run even though it automatically installed after DL. ### 1/5 — Works about half the time *2022-01-11, version 1.7* Doesn’t connect to the watch about every 4-5 workouts. Of course, you don’t know this until you’re starting your workout. Crap app. ### 1/5 — Not stable enough, keeps crashing *2022-01-10, version 1.7* Save yourself the time and money, just buy a hr monitor ### 1/5 — Does not work *2021-12-21, version 1.7* After spending 30 minutes getting it to connect it then just showed a blank screen where the heart rate should be. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — Rarely connects on the first try *2021-12-21, version 1.7* I waste about 20 minutes every time I try connect the app to my equipment (Echelon bike). This app is not recommended. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2021-12-09, version 1.7* This app worked at one point but I can no longer get it to work with the peloton app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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。 ### 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. ### 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! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-10-20, version 1.7* Sorry to say that this app just doesn’t work. Be great if someone could make an app that does this and actually does work. ### 1/5 — 絶対にハードウェア製品の心拍センサーを買うべき *2022-10-08, version 1.7* 払ったカネを返せ！😡😡😡💢💢 アプリを起動するといちいち表示される30秒の広告がうるさくて1,220円をワンタイムで支払ったものの、使ってみたら、とんでもないソフトだった。 ワフーエレメントROAMとペアリングして使ったが、以下の状況でまったく使い物にならなかった。 ・使う度にいちいちワフーに登録した心拍センサーを一旦忘れさせ、新規に心拍センサー登録操作してペアリングしなければ動作しない。 ・忘れさせた時点でBTが切れるので、iPhoneの設定アプリを開き、いちいち再ペアリングする必要が在る。 ・その上でWatchアプリを起動しBlkeトレーニングをスタートするもiPhone側のアプリを起動しろと言ってくる。もちろんiPhone側のアプリは起動済み。iPhoneアプリとWatchアプリの連携も非常に悪い。 ・iPhone側でエクササイズをスタートしサイコンとのBT接続モードに入ったところでROAM側でセンサー検出をさせるとすぐに「心拍センサーを登録するか？」訊いてくるので「はい」とすると登録され、BTレベル、バッテリーレベルが表示される様になるものの、心拍数だけ表示されず、blueheartアプリ側も接続が確立したことを示す緑色の表示とならない。 ・たまにうまく接続出来ることがあり接続を維持して走っている間は心拍数が表示されるが、休憩時に自転車から少し離れて飲み物など買い物している間にBT接続が切れてしまうと、その場で上記手順をイチからやり直しとなり、やってられない。 ・そもそも走行中はWatchアプリが走るため、Watchのフィットネスアプリは起動できない。通常フィットネスアプリで記録される走行ルートの情報は得られず、帰宅後にiPhoneの「ヘルスケア」アプリを開いても走行実績と消費カロリーが表示されるだけで、どこをどう走ったかの「マップ」情報は表示できない。 以上の面倒くささとルートの表示が得られない不便さから、ひと月ほど使った結果「こりゃダメだ！」と判断し、ワフーのTicker Fit心拍センサーを購入。 Watchは左に、Tickerを右に、両腕ともバンドを巻いて走ることとなったが、これでいちいちペアリング操作する必要は無くなった（それが普通だろ！）。また、ELEMENTアプリにも、STRAVAアプリにも、iPhoneのヘルスケアアプリにも、走行ルートの表示が得られる様になり、満足している。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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. ### 5/5 — 満足してます *2022-05-17, version 1.7* ZwiftとTrainerRoad(Windows版、Mac版、iOS版)と組み合わせて使っており、特に問題なく日々のトレーニングに使えています。広告の時間待ちが面倒で、それ以外に不満なポイントは特にありませんでしたので、Pro版を購入しました。 ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2022-05-01, version 1.7* works flawlessly with my ICG IC6 Bike. Thanks a lot! ### 5/5 — Brilliant app *2021-12-14* I just paid for the in app upgrade. I’ve used it for four workouts and it’s so good having my watches reliable heart rate displayed on my Schwinn ic8 bike. From there it in turn syncs to my iPad app with the cadence and power output in Wahoo System. Much Cheaper than buying a new HR strap. ### 5/5 — Connects Apple Watch to Concept2 PM5 *2020-12-17, version 1.6.7* A very good app. Can now reliably use my Apple Watch to monitor my heart rate while indoor rowing. The big benefit is that it registers on the PM5 and on the RowPro software (connected to the PM5 via a USB cable). This means I no longer need to use a chest strap. I use the BlueHeart app instead of the Fitness app to log a Rowing session. At the end, I Save the session which exports the data to the Fitness app, so it still shows up in my workouts. Recommended. ### 5/5 — Works well now *2020-09-10, version 1.5.2* I had it first and it worked once with my peloton and then didn’t for a bit. I then watched a YouTube video which showed I was connecting it wrong! For it to work correctly you have to open the app on your Apple Watch, select what you are doing and then open it on your iPhone. You then watch the advert and then you can connect it to your equipment. Once it is connected it takes about 5 seconds then I feel my watch buzzing as it’s counting down to begin! Have used this around 15 times now doing it this way and works perfect - have recommended it to friends to use ### 5/5 — Works for me *2020-05-19, version 1.2.2* Works perfectly for me with my NordicTrack. ### 5/5 — Peloton Friendly *2020-05-19, version 1.2.2* Tried out my first few Peloton rides with blueheart and it worked well. Pretty simple to use and had no problem connecting to the bike. Worked well enough that I paid for the in-app version. Figured it was cheaper to pay $10 for this app then to have to go out and buy a compatible chest strap when I already have an Apple Watch. ### 5/5 — Works perfectly with Peloton *2020-03-27, version 1.02* No issues whatsoever - does exactly what it’s supposed to, first time every time. Perfect! ### 5/5 — Works great! *2020-01-27, version 1.02* Easy setup. Can now use my Apple Watch with my peloton bike and have my heart rate show on the screen. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
