Hi all,

I just got my Moto 360 last month and was working on this app since I would love to track my heart rate all the time :cool:


Download (Google Play)



Description
Got smart-watch?
It'll be a waste if it's not periodically check your heart rate

Heart Rate OS is a must have tool for android wearable smart-watch owner.
Everyone will curious about his/her heart rate across the day:
- How much is my highest/lowest heart rate?
- When was my highest/lowest heart rate occurred?
- Is it having a pattern?
- How my heart rate compared with my step history
- Etc

And what cool is all your heart rate data will be sync to your Google Fit account combined with other Google Fit data.

Heart Rate OS is still beta and new feature will keep coming.
- Setting hear rate minimum & maximum limit
- Notification when below minimum or above maximum
- Display step chart*
- More options
- Etc

Common FAQ
1. What kind of smart-watch do I need?
-> HROS will only work with Android wearable watch: Moto 360, LG G Watch R and other android wear watch with heart rate sensor. HROS does not work on Samsung Gear and smart watches using other operating systems. Tizen devices as Gear-Fit and Gear II are not supported. Please do not give bad rating because of it.
2. My automatic heart rate check is not working?
-> If you tried manual checking working, automatic hear rate check should be work. Please try to tighten your band and select more frequent checking.
3. What should I do if I have question/crash?
-> Write me email from menu "Send feedback" or go to HROS xda forum for discussion (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-wear/general/app-heart-rate-os-android-wear-google-t3031964)

Any feedback will be great :)

Nice app, I was looking for an app like this but it seems that is not working on my LG G watch R. I've sent you some crash reports
Not sure which email from you. But several user were using LG G watch R and they said HROS is able to get the heart rate properly.
Do you only see -1 result? when "check heart rate now"

After some FC I get it working, it seems that Automatic check works too! Before it was stuck on -1.
I'll keep testing and report back!

It would be great to have different intervals, like 1 minute or even continuous, it would be very handy for heart monitoring during workouts. I do a lot of hiit and knowing heart rate in real time is very useful

It would be usefull to be able to set a "sleeping time", like don't check the heart rate from 1:00 to 8:00 (I usually sleep without my watch, so is pointless check the heart rate at night)

I'm having a problem: The "Check heart rate now" was changed to "Heart Rate Checking In Progress" when I click on it the first time and from then is at this state.

Two new feature requests:
- In the history, it could be good to be able to select more than Last 2 days. It could be useful to select a date range or at least having the options "4 Days", "1 Week", "2 Week", "1 Month"
- In my LG G Watch R the measurement last for a long time. ¿Is it normal?. It could be useful to be able to cancel the measurement or force it to measure at any desired time.

Thanks and best regards :)

detecting a heart rate when watch off.

Love this app, it's what I was looking for But I now doubt my hear rate history after yesterday.
my watch battery died around 11.45am yesterday. I didn't get home until 7 so that's when I put it on charge.

I have not wore the watch since I put it on charge last night but heart rate os has detected a varying heart rate every 30 mins since the battery died yesterday until now ?.. usually if I have not wore my watch, I can tell as heart rate os shows blank for the hours it's been charging.

please help.

David.

Just found this app over the weekend. It is very promising. There's one feature I'd like to see: The ability to toggle on/off continuous heart rate checks from the Android Wear device itself.

Look to be almost exactly what I was looking for, great ! Let's check battery usage for a few days ...

Three missing features (my point of view) :
- export values (some csv export would be fine)
- backup (and of course restore) values (I do flash ROM frequently ...)
- delete a value (Heart Rate OS just launched a measure when my watch was on the dock -> I now have a point at 196 bpm on my chart !)

Currently there's no way to detect if the watch is charged and somehow the heart rate sensor give response (high result) when charged so the app have no way to tell the result is incorrect.
This can be handle with using exclude feature, and later the delete feature requested by Narsil below

Thank you for the ideas. Noted.
For backup is not needed because the values is stored in Google Fit server, as long you using same google account it will be restored.
App config will be reset, but currently not much app config.

How does it behave with continuous workout mode? I mean, does it show solid and consistent values without skyrocketing or getting underground? Because still I don't understand if the problem with these smartwatches is connected to bad sensors or bad app which cannot read correctly the values.
