### 1/5 — Dangerous app

*2016-10-21, version 2.4*

There are a number of different arrhythmias that one can have. Some are dangerous and can cause a stroke, others are benign and are just annoying. This app labels all arrhythmias as a fib, which is the one that causes strokes. Only a doctor should be diagnosing arrhythmias. Stay away from this app!

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2015-12-19, version 2.1*

Have a problem with tachycardia (confirmed by cardiology, ER visits, and my personal daily measurements).  It keeps picking up a HR below 40 BPM.  Obviously wrong.

### 1/5 — Non-Functional

*2015-11-02, version 2.1*

Does not work at all on iPhone 6S Plus, running iOS 9.1. When trying to start monitor, a pop-up appears and says iOS 8.1 is not supported. Apparently, it's greatly confused, considering the "What's New" states that it works with iOS 8.x and newer. Deleted app.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2015-09-10, version 2.1*

As soon as I click button to check rhythm, the light flashes and it turns off.

### 1/5 — Not free!!!

*2014-10-03, version 1.2*

Not free!!! It charged me a dollar and didn't end up even working! Don't waste your time!

### 1/5 — Was great

*2025-11-09, version 4.3*

Hi thankyou for this free app ive used for 10years and it used to work fantastically on previous iphones but not working on my iphone 11 latest update

### 1/5 — Does not work with iPhone 14 Pro

*2023-10-19, version 4.1*

Worked with the SE and 7+, no go with the 14 Pro.

### 1/5 — Heart rhythm

*2023-09-02, version 4.1*

doesn’t work properly can’t save heart beat trace. Heart pulse may be accurate but it didn’t match my Fitbit pulse . Other data entry menus are blocked by menus asking for data. Poor design,

### 1/5 — Not detecting afib

*2022-08-17, version 4.1*

I tried numerous times to check my heart rhythm and it was unable to detect I was in afib. Had to use a different device to find out.

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2021-04-12, version 3.1*

It keeps asking me to place my finger over the back camera and flashlight but the iPhone 12 has 3 different back cameras and tried them all but can’t get any reading. Not a user friendly app

### 1/5 — Heart rhythm and rate

*2021-01-15, version 3.1*

There’s no way my heart rhythm is ventricular tachycardia if my heart rate is 65! And the sample given is NOT a normal sinus rhythm looks more like a Ventricular tachycardia LOL

### 1/5 — Glitches in App

*2020-12-09, version 3.1*

Unable to see the full checklist for Stroke Risk.  Some questions are covered by the “know your risk” button.  This feature in the App cannot be used.  

App layout needs to be improved and updated.

### 1/5 — Not real results

*2019-09-16, version 2.8*

This app is so false the only accurate thing about it is the beats per Min , it says everyone in my house has Afib smh

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work!

*2019-06-28, version 2.8*

Click on it to open & as soon as I tap rhythm, app shuts down.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2019-04-01, version 2.8*

It crashes after checking the heart rhythm and it doesn't save any data. 
Pointless and a waste of time as it could be an excellent app.

### 5/5 — Simple and accurate

*2023-06-16, version 4.1*

This app picked up my AF before I got to the hospital, recommended by my cardiologist

### 5/5 — Excellent tool

*2020-06-15, version 3.1*

This app is an excellent tool. It has already alerted me twice to AF problems. Even my Cardiologist (a Professor at Sydney University, Australia) is impressed. Don’t ignore what your heart is telling you!
Well done and thank you to the developers.

### 5/5 — Really Good!

*2019-09-29, version 2.8*

Works really well, just a lil bit slow

### 5/5 — Reboot after installation

*2016-02-21, version 2.3.1*

"Heart Rhythm" part of app did nothing until I did a hard shutdown (press power & home buttons at same time), and restarted phone. Now works perfectly on a 5c with ios 9.2.1. Very accurate!

### 5/5 — Don't like recent change

*2014-05-01, version 1.2*

When I first bought it the photo record of your heart rhythm was easy to see, now the photo has examples of rhythms as well, so yours appears a third the size and the run it records is shorter.

### 4/5 — Basic but good recording

*2020-05-30, version 2.8*

I’ve been trying to find an app that captures a short time line of my heart rate, so I can see AF, this app captures 10 seconds which  is still better than most.

### 4/5 — Great General Screening App

*2019-10-24, version 2.8*

Great app for general point-in-time screening, it doesn’t pretend to diagnose, just gives a short snapshot view of rhythm.  Somewhat ahead of its time considering other apps and wearables are just now doing this and this one is free.  Hope developers keep it updated, well done.

### 2/5 — Not accurate and anxiety inducing

*2020-01-10, version 2.8*

In 5 minutes I checked my heart rate 5 times.. 72, 199, 142, 28, and 69. Obviously wrong.

### 2/5 — Misleading

*2019-02-02, version 2.8*

Heart can have different styles of rthyms and if can make overthinking and can eventually lead towards heart problems

I think medicle apps should be provided through insurance company with special devices non centralised with Internet...

### 2/5 — Pretty cool app but could be better

*2015-03-25, version 1.3*

I like this app but it I have some problems with it. I would to be able to monitor my heart for longer than 10 seconds. A person with a regularly irregular heart beat may have a missing or extra beat every few seconds spaced apart. Often more than 10 seconds apart.

It would also be nice to connect a chest strap, such a Wahoo's and Polar's, to monitor the heart rate rather than using the camera. Those chest strap are very accurate. More accurate than other devices such a wrist and finger monitors.

With a chest monitor the app could be left running for as long as desired and alert the user of an arrhythmia sensed. Somewhat similar to the heart monitors doctors make you wear for as much as 24 hrs or more to monitor the heart. But instead of recording the rhythm for hours at a time, it could be for the last few minutes and alert you instead.
