Heart Rate Plus: Pulse Monitor

Anastasia Vavilina-Halstead

More accurate and better at sensing your heartbeat than other similar apps. It takes a bit of practice to get a replicable reading, but the way the app shows you the signal being picked up by the camera really helps make sure you're in the right position for an accurate measurement.

Works well with the built-in pulse sensor on my Samsung S8. The adverts are tolerable. I would give 5 stars but for the annoying pop-up every time I use the app, asking me if I want to set a reminder. No, I don't. And I'm probably not going to change my mind next time I take a measurement. This should remember my decision - I can always use the settings menu to change it later.

Seems to work very well & accurately as gives expected figures. Only problem is that holding one's index finger over the flash led causes it to become painfully hot very rapidly, so i think the resulting stress of this would be likely to affect the result, but it does seem to come up with an accurate reading by the time one's finger has become too painful. Think it would be a good idea in a future update if the app could tell the user as soon as a reliable reading has been obtained. Brent.
