### 3/5 — 心拍数測定ならApple Watchの方がいい

*2025-03-24, version 1.0.6*

Apple Watchで心拍数測定をして、自分の心臓に当てたら、ほとんど一緒だったけれど一方で、このアプリは、例えば俺の心拍数が、80だとして、AppleWatchだと、しっかりとタイムラインで80と出ているんですが、このアプリは、75だと出ているんです。まあでも、たまにまあまあ一緒の時もあるし、まあApple Watchない人向けにはまあ良いと思う。ですが、しっかりと心拍数測定したいなら、Apple Watchを買った方がいいです。

### 2/5 — Not accurate

*2025-01-18, version 1.0.5*

Well my cold tea mug has a high heart rate! Let’s leave it there 😂
