## Description

Pulse Plus uses your phone camera to measure your pulse via photoplethysmography (PPG). It provides a visual dashboard of your measurements, stores history, and can sync with Apple Health for easy data sharing.

Usage is simple—cover the camera and flash with your fingertip, keep steady, and let the app track your pulse. It offers reminders and a yearly subscription with a 3-day free trial for unlimited measurements, insights, and an ad-free experience. Note: it is not a medical device and should not replace professional medical advice.

## Review summary

Reviews largely praise the app’s heart-health focus and feature set but condemn pricing and misleading oxygen-measurement claims. The biggest recurring issues are auto-renewing free trials with charges, difficulty canceling/subscription management, and promises of SpO2 readings that don’t materialize. Several users report unreliable readings or that only heart rate is measured, plus high upfront costs. A minority still sees value in the features, but the negative experiences dominate.

### Pros

- Strong heart-health focus with multiple tests/features.
- Some users describe it as the best app for heart health.
- Offers data tracking/diary for heart data.

### Cons

- Free trial is misleading with auto-renewal and hard-to-cancel subscriptions.
- Cannot reliably cancel or manage subscription inside the app; cancellation process is unclear.
- Promises pulse oximetry/Blood Oxygen readings but repeatedly fails to measure O2; only HR is available.
- High and opaque pricing, with mentions of a substantial annual fee or upfront costs.
- Readings can be unreliable or never finish; some users report the app not working as advertised.
