Heart Rate Plus: Pulse Monitor Reviews

My doctor told me I have an abnormally high heart rate and told me that I needed medication to keep it in range or I could go into cardiac arrest, but with HeartRatePlus it shows me such a low and safe range that I never take my medicine anymore! My wife and kids will be so happy to know that I'm getting better! No more medicine thanks to HeartRatePlus! Thank you!!!

I had two heart rate apps I tried to use. This is the better of the two. For a few days it was fine. Then I got the paid version. It started taking 10 to 15 tries often to get a reading with it which took forever. Once it got a reading it was extremely inaccurate. I know because I double checked my wrist, my blood pressure machine and another app that has not been wrong once. I also have a pacemaker set at 60. When everything else says 60 and this says anywhere between 43 and 188 I know darn good and well this one is wrong. It was better than the other I was using. I have deleted both this and the other and using the highest rated one I see here (4.9 with thousands of people having rated) now which has never been wrong and never had problems causing me to retake even once much less 15 times. Don’t bother with this.

Nice heart monitor. Has all the options in a first rate app of this kind. Quick monitor (takes about 15 seconds) able to put in user comments, export to CSV file and unlimited amount of results.
*Would like to have the option of having a beeping sound when the heart beats like many other apps have, and smoother tracking visually as its recording a pulse. These features in no way detract from the operation of HeartRatePlus though.

As of the latest version update: was originally rated 5 star, now a 1 star. As usual, developers always usually screw up an update. Inaccurate, blocky, (not smooth display)

Most of the time this is accurate to my heart rate. When I have PVC's and PAC's it seems to throw it off because I have about 14 of the irregular rate in 60 seconds, But when I count it with the stop watch it's pretty accurate in 60 seconds. I wish it would measure how many PVC's and PAC's I'm having in 60 seconds. For a program it's nice to have. Works well enough to know your rate, even with an irregular rate.

I love using HeartRatePlus to check my heart rate and seeing my rate history. I wish HeartRatePlus allowed for additional custom categories. I have a heart condition and would like to be able to create categories based on symptoms so I can see if they correlate to a specific heart rate.

So I just ran a mile in about 12 minutes, then I decided to take my heart rate to see what it is and how close it is to my goal. First off, it takes ages to find a reading(roughly 3-4) minutes, and it rarely gives you an accurate reading! I ran for 12 minutes, and it says my heart rate is a 38, which is less than half of my HR before I started running! So no, HeartRatePlus is honestly quite bad and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone else.

Used other heart rate monitor apps in past. They got updated with so many annoying "features", they were almost unusable. Then I tried this one. YAY! Works like a charm. Simple, accurate, easy to navigate. No annoying junk. Best monitor app out there for now. 5 stars.

So my teacher wants us to know our heart rate so I downloaded HeartRatePlus thinking of it’s going to be useless but is was the opposite and when I tried it the old fashioned way the results were the same so I give it a 5 star

I've used other apps before but without easy ability to add notes, data missing. I have aFib and am presently wearing a heart monitor. I note activities when I use HeartRatePlus., for my own supplement. If nothing else, it lets me know how activities change my pulse!

I was recently diagnosed with AFib. Just before my most recent reparative procedure I downloaded HeartRatePlus. I've seen my readings go from looking like the blade of a saw to the way they should look. I have a follow up soon and will take my history with me. I like HeartRatePlus so far.

I chose HeartRatePlus because it’s so easy to use. I’ve checked it against a blood pressure machine and it’s very accurate. When it’s high, I do relaxation exercises and then take it again Thanks for an easy, accurate, and free app!

HeartRatePlus is functional. I’ve been tracking my HR for anxiety reasons, and it’s nice for that. The tags are nice, too. Helps me remember why my BPM was up at any given time.

Wondering, though: What do the colors mean (red/yellow/green)? They don’t seem to depend on BPM, as I’ve gotten yellow and green for the same number before. Would appreciate an answer. Thanks!

I’ve tried several heart-rate apps and this one is by far the best I’ve seen. I check my heart rate several times during the night and it’s very easy to use: I can do what I need to do even half awake. I especially like the averaging that it does. Great app!

HeartRatePlus does exactly what it's supposed to do! It lets me track down my heart rate after every workout so that I can figure out how much weight I'm losing pending on my calories I'm burning. I love HeartRatePlus it lets me keep track of my heart rate even when I'm resting!

Pretty accurate. My only question is what does the yellow red and green regions mean? I see sometime my heart rate is pretty high but I am in the middle of the yellow region but sometimes it’s pretty low (in 80s) but I’m almost in the red region. Could somebody please clarify this?

This is a great app. It is easy to use and visually pleasing. I love that it keeps my history and I can make notes with each reading.

Was very good, but since last update it freezes after it takes a reading, on the screen that gives the option of selecting “No Thanks “. Readings are accurate, but the freezes are annoying so only 3 stars .

Keeping track of my heart rate has never been so easy. I have tried other apps but this one is the best! I’m very happy with HeartRatePlus

Diagnosed with Afib & I use HeartRatePlus to monitor tachycardia episodes. Pulse graph is always accurate when compare to finger pulse oximeter. I highly recommend HeartRatePlus for people looking for best free app.

Whenever I’m having an episode with my heart, this seems to always indicate a high number. At times, I feel like I’m having a heart attack.
