Heart Rate Variability Logger lets you record, plot and export time, frequency and non-linear HRV Features (includes experience sampling, RR-interval correction, DFA alpha 1 for aerobic threshold estimation in real-time, comparison between recordings, activity monitoring & step counting, location tracking). Heart Rate Variability Logger requires a Bluetooth Low Energy (also called Bluetooth Smart or BLE or 4.0) heart rate sensor (we recommend Polar H7 or H10) Main features: - Extracts, plots, stores and exports heart rate, rr-intervals, time and frequency domain heart rate variability features (AVNN, SDNN, rMSSD, pNN50, LF, HF, LF/HF, alpha 1 from DFA) - Configurable experience sampling for events annotation - Comparison between up to 3 recordings lets you get a better understanding of differences in HRV under different contexts in a glance. The comparison modality includes also Outlier removal - Activity tracking: step counter or accelerometer derived motion intensity for user context (step counter only for iPhones 5S) - Location tracking, either using GSM/WiFi networks (low battery consumption) or GPS (high accuracy) - Configurable time window for features computation (choose between 30 seconds, 1, 2 or 5 minutes) - RR-intervals correction can be enabled to prevent ectopic beats or artifacts from affecting HRV features - export for Kubios - Filters data based on the selected threshold - Shows HR in the app icon - Data export using iTunes or Dropbox - Tested for recordings longer than 24 hours Please note that continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Have months or years of Tanita scale measurements stuck in the My Tanita app? TanitaSync lets you import your complete history into Apple Health with just a few taps. WHY TANITASYNC? My Tanita only syncs new measurements going forward. If you forgot to enable sync, or want to import older data, TanitaSync lets you bulk import your entire history into Apple Health. WHAT YOU CAN IMPORT: • Weight • BMI • Body Fat Percentage • Muscle Mass • Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) • Heart Rate HOW IT WORKS: Export your measurements as CSV from the My Tanita app Open TanitaSync and select the CSV file Preview the data and optionally filter by date range Tap Import — done! SMART FEATURES: • Automatic duplicate detection — won't re-import existing measurements • Date filtering — import only the range you need • Delete option — remove previously imported data if needed PRIVACY FIRST: Your health data stays on your device and syncs directly to Apple Health. TanitaSync does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information. Note: This app is not affiliated with Tanita Corporation.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: TanitaSync at $4.99 against Heart Rate Variability Logger's $9.99. Heart Rate Variability Logger's advantage is chart position (#47 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
