Heart Rate Monitor app hits App Store

October 7, 2008 · Print This Article

It’s difficult to keep up the App Store these days as there are just so many cool apps to talk about. However, that one demanded some attention. It’s a heart rate monitor and it uses the iPhone’s built-in microphone to detect your heart beat.


 
that is one of those cases where something so simple is really pretty smart. All you have to do is hold your iPhone to your chest or under your jaw with

the headphone microphone. The iPhone app thereupon “listens” to your heartbeat and takes a measurement of it.

This is a great view for those that have a goal heart rate or wish to keep track of it while on the go. that is plus a good thing to have for pregnant women, who need to keep their heart rate under a convinced level when exercising.
