## What is OnBeat?

The best fitness class cardio app doesn't require days to set up. Download OnBeat on your iPhone or iPad and try it today. Simply hook up your device to a TV through an Apple TV or HDMI/Lightning adapter.

OnBeat is a "bring your own heart rate monitor" platform. Your clients use what they already own. Your gym doesn't have to sell expensive proprietary heart rate monitors -- use whatever you want.

Connect up to 12 Bluetooth heart rate monitors simultaneously with no extra hardware. If you need to connect more than 12, you will need to purchase an antenna from us -- email support@onbeat.fit to learn more.

Does your gym use MINDBODY? Sync your account within OnBeat to import class lists. This saves time by eliminating manual entry of your clients. Just follow the prompts in the app when registering.

OnBeat is designed for both small and large gyms to display cardio performance during a class. Your clients bring their own heart rate monitor or you can loan them out. Prior to starting a class, link their heart rate monitor to your app and it remembers them for future classes.

OnBeat works with most modern Bluetooth heart rate monitors. Unfortunately FitBits and Apple Watches are not supported because they do not share with 3rd party apps. If they change their sharing will be sure to support them.

### 1/5 — Customer service is atrocious

*2019-11-26*

I would say the app is fair but customer service is horrible I emailed a few times and it always took days before I got a response. I was told it was a one man show chief cook and bottle wash type of business which I can appreciate, however hard to compete in this fast paced world.

### 5/5 — Fantastic, fun, and easy to set-up

*2019-02-28*

This is such a great app. Thank you so much for developing this easy to use app. It syncs seamlessly, easily, and quickly to our Polar transmitters. The athletes LOVE the ability to see where their HR’s are during training.

### 5/5 — Great For fitness, sports & medical!

*2018-03-28*

We have been using this app at Elevate Performance in Rapid City, SD for about a month and couldn’t be happier! Our fitness members love the instant feedback and it is a great way for us as instructors to gauge the intensity. It is a great tool for education about workout intensity, heart health, and weight loss. It’s very simple to use and our members have loved looking back to compare results over time. We have used it for sports performance and physical therapy as well to improve performance and monitor exercise response! Great app and very helpful staff!

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2018-03-24*

After searching different heart rate monitoring apps, I chose OnBeat and couldn’t be happier!! The members love the immediate feedback on how their workout is going and they are more motivated to come to class to train harder! The app is easy to use and implement. 
Scott has been excellent in helping me whenever I need it so I feel a personal one on one customer service connection. The price plans are very reasonable too. OnBeat has a plan for every gym’s needs!! Keep up the great work Scott!!

### 5/5 — The best monitoring app around

*2018-03-24*

The OnBeat team has done a fantastic job with this app! It was super easy to set and run for my studio and trainers. Clients love the detailed reports and visual components during sessions. Can’t say enough good things it’s a must have for every gym!!

### 5/5 — Anywhere Gym Loves OnBeat

*2018-03-24*

There are so many different heart monitoring systems but I feel very fortunate to come across this one before I spent unnecessary money on one of the other systems. But on top of the price, it works great as well! Any time I have ever needed any assistance the staff has been super responsive. I love OnBeat and my members do too! Great product and app!

### 5/5 — Great tool for our club & members!

*2018-03-24*

We have been using the Onbeat Ap integrated with Mindbody-Easy to use and the staff at Onbeat super helpful. It has been a fantastic way for our teachers, trainers and members to up performance. Everyone loves the realtime feedback on the screens - to see how their workout is going. The integration with Mindbody automatically loads members signed into class or training session into the Ap making it easy to use. This has opened a new venue of teaching our members how to maximize weight loss and work to their potential. Our members are hooked!

### 5/5 — Awesome Product

*2018-03-23*

We've been using OnBeat at Route 20 Fitness (Buffalo, NY) for a little over two months now and could not be happier with the program. The user interface is beautiful and it truly does motivate our clients to work harder in each of our classes.

### 5/5 — Infinite Wellness at 501 - OnBeat Rocks !

*2018-03-23*

This is a fantastic HR monitoring app that’s easy to setup and use.  Our athletes love the instant feedback they get during their workout with the visual on the screen and after their workout with the summary report.  We also appreciate the support the OnBeat team has provided.  They are very friendly and responsive.  We have been looking at other apps to add to our authentic experience and this one checks all the boxes for us here at Infinite Wellness.

### 5/5 — OnBeat in New Orleans

*2018-03-22*

I have been utilizing the OnBeat software in my personal training studio (SMX Training in New Orleans) for private to small group training.    The feedback my clients receive is incredibly motivating!  I have clients that are intent on exceeding their last calorie burn each time they come in.  
I am now in the process of opening a new group training studio, Rogue Culture.  The OnBeat software will be at the heart of our classes.  We are very happy that we found this product!
