### 3/5 — I LIKE it, but no HRV Measures

*2026-08-04, version 3.3.0*

Overall, I like the App. Would be so much more powerful though if it would also measure HRV (live) and write that to the Apple Health App. Huge pity that this doesn't exist in the App.

### 3/5 — Top mais quel dommage !

*2026-02-14, version 3.3.0*

C est l application la mieux conçue. Mais pourquoi ???? Fait il acheter un appareil compatible  Bluetooth à l heure des Apple Watchs  ??? Quel dommage. Deux étoiles en moins pour ça , sinon 5 étoiles sans hésiter.

### 5/5 — Me gusta, pero…

*2025-12-07, version 3.3.0*

Si tengo la HeartRate+ comprada de hace unos años, deberían dar a otro precio o gratis como update la versión Pro.

### 4/5 — Son dans oreillette

*2025-10-26, version 3.3.0*

Quand on a des oreillettes recevoir le son dans celle-ci serait un + comme le font d’autres applications.

### 3/5 — Changement d’iPhone = perte des achats

*2025-09-30, version 3.3.0*

J’utilisais l’application complète achetée sur mon ancien iPhone, je viens de changer d’iPhone et j’ai perdu tous mes achats malgré le fait que je l’ai chargée avec le même compte Apple. 
Avez-vous perdu votre base clients entre temps ? Pouvez-Vous me restaurer mes achats ? Ou dois-je tout racheter chaque fois que je change d’iPhone ?

Mise à jour : Il semblerait que vous ayez supprimé la version que j’ai du store pour en installer une autre quasi identique mais pour laquelle il faut payer à nouveau. Une manière de redemander de l’argent à sa base client discrète… Je trouve ça un peu moyen…🤷‍♂️
Je retire une étoile de plus pour la méthode… Le programme est bon mais pas l’approche commerciale. Redonnez moi un accès que j’ai payé précédemment et je changerai mon évaluation. 
Vous pouviez changer votre mode de paiement pour les nouveaux clients tout en préservant ceux qui vous on fait confiance et soutenu au début.

### 4/5 — Presque complète !

*2025-05-16, version 3.3.0*

Très bonne application. Surtout la seule appli que j'ai trouvé qui permette le biofeed back car elle capte le pouls et calcule la cohérence cardiaque. Ce n'est pas juste une bille qui monte et qui descend. Beaucoup de réglages mais... le cycle respiratoire est de 15 secondes maxi. Pour quelqu'un d'un peu entraîné comme moi (je pratique depuis 40 ans !!) 15 secondes c'est beaucoup trop court. Quand je fais de la respiration seul, un cycle dure entre 30 et 60 secondes.
Je suis professionnel (psychiatre) et je conseille souvent cette application dont le prix reste très raisonnable, à mes patients.

### 5/5 — Thank you ❤️ amazing

*2025-04-07, version 3.3.0*

Thank you. Helps me learn about heart coherence and I can monitor my coherence as my breathing rate changes, and while I do things around the house or am driving. Allows me to further improve my life, currently doing HeartMath daily ❤️. Using the polar h10 with it.

### 2/5 — Mauvais fonctionnement iPhone 15pro

*2025-02-06, version 3.3.0*

Incapable de faire la lecture du rythme cardiaque

### 5/5 — Ottima per rilassarsi e monitorare coerenza cardiaca

*2024-12-03, version 3.3.0*

Davvero ben fatto vedi in diretta come vari tipi di respirazione influenzano il relax ed il cuore ..

### 5/5 — Chronomètre

*2024-11-02, version 3.3.0*

Serait il possible d’intégrer un chronomètre dans l’application 
Merci
