How it works
Take your reading within 3 minutes of waking, while still lying down. This captures your true resting state before posture changes, caffeine, or morning activity affect your heart rate.
Place your fingertip gently over the rear camera. Pulse Rate will illuminate it with the flash and capture a clean signal — even a small fidget can add 3–5 bpm of artifact.
Log notes on sleep quality, alcohol, stress, or a late meal alongside your reading. In 2–3 weeks, clear patterns will emerge showing what affects your resting heart rate.
Resting HR changes slowly but meaningfully. A 5-bpm drop over 30 days of consistent aerobic exercise is a clear indicator your cardiovascular fitness is improving.
