### 2/5 — んー🤔

*2026-06-28*

これで正確に測れたら嬉しいなと思いましたが数値が違いすぎてショック😱

### 1/5 — Kostenlos, wirklich?

*2024-12-16*

Leider ist die App nicht kostenlos sondern man bezahlt wie so oft durch durch den Zwang, Werbung ansehen zu müssen (und evtl. auch noch mit seinen Gesundheitsdaten).

### 2/5 — Not accurate

*2024-11-26*

The HR readings were not accurate. I was hoping I could use this free app as a gap bridge when my other heart monitor (polar/visibility) was charging- jic I needed it. I would be better off using a 10 sec timer and taking my own. It’s nice that it’s free— and I’m familiar w/ the finger-to-camera method— but the readings were consistently off. It’s a good idea, but not reliable as it is rn.

### 2/5 — Publicités intrusives

*2024-06-27*

Presque inutilisable à cause de publicités intrusives.

### 1/5 — Nope

*2024-05-21*

I have POTS and upon standing my heart rate increases. I got a consistent inaccurate reading of 72 every time I used this app

### 2/5 — Kann messen

*2024-04-25*

Die Ereignisse lassen sich kaum bis garnicht bedienen, deshalb auch keine Auswertung im Diagramm. Da ich nur den Puls messe reicht mir das.

### 1/5 — Always shows 72

*2024-03-16*

The app shows 72 on every reading, and a long ad for every measurement. if it were 69, then at least it would be funny, but as such it is merely useless.

### 1/5 — Yanlış ölçüyor

*2024-01-12, version 2.3.1*

Yanlış ölçüyor

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-11-23*

Always gives the same result which is wrong.

### 1/5 — Роман

*2023-11-07, version 2.1*

Не міряє

### 1/5 — Demasiada publicidad

*2023-10-28, version 2.1*

Publicidades

### 1/5 — Péssimo

*2023-09-24*

Desconfortável! você não consegue salvar a aferição pelo volume de anúncio carregando na tela do celular - chega ser angustiante e ofensivo.

### 3/5 — Sadece Nabız

*2023-07-23, version 2.1*

Sadece nabız ve kalp atışını ölçmek için ideal bence tansiyon da eklenmeli

### 3/5 — Testing

*2023-05-05*

Still testing this app but my review so far is not good. The app does not indicate that your finger is in position on the lens correctly and it seem to give the reading after removal of finger. It’s a no frills meter

### 4/5 — the flash

*2023-04-01*

the flash is bad for people that go too school.

### 1/5 — Шляпа.

*2023-01-07*

Показывает случайные цифры. На разных руках и ногах разные показатели. Думал, что время таких дурилка прошло. Но нет.....

### 1/5 — Very very bad

*2022-12-29, version 2.0*

Compare it with an actual heart rate monitor, for me it says 72 every time.
This app is dangerous and does not belong on the App Store.

### 1/5 — Максимальное значение ЧСС - 72!!

*2022-12-22*

Раньше показывал ЧСС, даже значительно выходящую за нормы (150-160у/мин)
Сейчас же показывает максимум 72! А по факту - больше 100. Уже с полгода такая накладка. А ведь раньше было идеальное приложение!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2026-08-11*

I liked it right up to the moment my friend’s PT therapist put his pulse reader on my finger and got a reading ten points higher. Yes I want a reading but I also want it to be accurate.

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work at all!

*2026-06-17*

I tried it multiple times put my finger on the camera tried all lenses multiple times and it doesn’t give any measurements. Thanks for wasting my time.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work - it’s just ads

*2026-05-11*

This just shows you ads that won’t leave the screen unless you buy an app from the App Store.

### 1/5 — Kostenlos

*2026-03-29*

Aber sehr ungenau

### 1/5 — Lies

*2026-03-19*

This app is so far behind off it says my heart rate is at 36 which I’d be dead or it says it’s over 200 which again I’d be having a heart attack. This app needs to quit showing fake results and fake reviews. This is one of the worst apps you can download.

### 1/5 — Not recommend

*2026-01-30*

Application does give you your heart rate. But it is full of traps to get you to other apps and scam messages. 
I am removing it from my iPhone.

### 1/5 — Nur Werbung

*2025-09-01*

Also ich weis nicht was das soll vielleicht liegt es a an mir aber 3 x messen danach Werbung Werbung Werbung . Nein Danke

### 1/5 — Worst app for taking your bpn

*2025-07-17*

Wouldn’t recommend to anyone

### 1/5 — Same rate every time

*2025-07-01*

On my SE1 it worked OK, but now on my SE2 it just gives 72bpm every time, no matter what I’ve been doing, no matter which activity I select, even if my finger is not on the camera.

### 1/5 — Free but to many adds

*2025-03-09*

Yes it is free but so polluted with adds I would rather just pay for an app rather than to contend with all the annoying ads.

*2020-10-15, version 1.5*

This app is amazing and completely free! There is No in-app purchase witch was Suprusing when I fist saw this app. But there is only one problem with this app. Everytime a finish the heart reat tracker/monitor or whatever you want to call it there is 2 buttons right on top of each other on the bottom right corner saying next and save. I find this a bit annoying so plz fix this. Thx so much!
