## What is PulseCheck?

Measure your heart rate in seconds using only your phone camera.
PulseCheck uses a camera-based PPG scan to estimate your BPM quickly and clearly. Place your fingertip on the rear camera, stay still, and get a result in about 10 seconds.
Why PulseCheck
Camera-only heart rate scan (no wearable required)
Fast BPM readings with a simple guided flow
Daily trend charts for resting and active moments
Session notes for workouts, stress, sleep, or caffeine
Reminder check-ins to build a consistent habit
How camera scanning works PulseCheck detects subtle fingertip color changes during each heartbeat through your camera and flash, then estimates pulse in beats per minute (BPM).
How to get better readings
Cover the camera lens gently with your fingertip
Keep your hand still and breathe normally
Avoid strong movement and very cold fingers
Take 2-3 scans and compare trends over time
Built for everyday wellness Use PulseCheck before workouts, after training, or during stressful days to better understand your body and recovery.

### 1/5 — Mr abhilash

*2026-08-30*

Cheating add

### 2/5 — Clickbate only

*2026-08-23*

There is no blood glucose level reading function to monitor your BGL.

### 1/5 — ‘TOTALLY FREE’ ??

*2026-08-08*

I don’t see a charge of $9.99 (first week)
$39.00 (whole year)
as a totally free app. 
That is false advertising.

### 1/5 — Cancellation

*2026-08-05*

Not providing what was offered. Can’t cancel

### 1/5 — Miss lead

*2026-07-28*

You mention blood sugar level and allow a quick test on the pop up and then zero mention of it after you purchase the app… complete fraud

### 1/5 — PulseCheck:Heart

*2026-07-27*

I think this is a misreading due to improper use.

### 1/5 — Misleading information

*2026-07-11*

I put your app on my phone because you indicated that you could test my blood sugar
But from everything I see on your app there’s no way for you to test my blood sugar. You’re simply want me to test it and then put my results into your app.
this is not what I expected from looking at your information

### 1/5 — Not Free, as advertised.

*2026-07-09*

I downloaded this app because in the ad the lady said “Free, Totally Free. 
Yet when I open it the very first thing I see is the weekly and monthly cost to use it. $9.99 per week!! I went no further. I will be deleting the app from my phone as soon as I submit this review.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work as advertised

*2026-07-05*

I have tried this app several times and others that are similar and none of them check blood sugar. I've got the iOS iPhone that I'm supposed to have, but none of them work heart rate yes blood sugar no so what's up guys? How come this is not functioning the way it's supposed to

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for me.

*2026-06-25*

This app will not let me cancel.  It is incredibly frustrating to for me to try to use.
If I can’t figure out how to cancel it will charge me 9.99 a week!!!
