2026-03-31	So*****	I paid for this app, think it was eight dollars, and now there’s a subscription? How is this legal?

2026-01-10	Da*****	Thank you soooooo much for the crown lock in the new update. I can’t tell you how frustrated I get when my threshold lowers and my watch starts freaking out 😂😂 love this app, bought 4 Apple Watches just for this app. I have them setup just like my Fitbit… which I also still wear, as well 😂 can’t be too accurate with that heart rate!

2026-01-08	TN*****	I had been using Cardiogram for years and when they closed December 2025, the app quit. I spent 6 days looking for an app to show live heart rate on Apple watch for POTS and came across this app. Well worth the $6! Hint: turn on background mode for best data. Eats battery up, but does what I wanted! Thanks!

2025-10-22	Da*****	I have a low heartbeat that I’m monitoring when it gets below 30 bpm. I thought by its description this product would make up for apples inability to go below 40 bpm. I was misled and I can’t get a refund

2025-02-15	J.*****	I’ve been wanting an app like this for so long! Probably for a different reason that most but I can’t believe I found it! I have tattoos which prevent wrist detection from working. The HR monitor and all health features do work. The issue is it doesn’t know when it’s on my wrist. With this app I’m now able to have 24/7 hr monitoring with wrist detection off!!! This is the best app to ever exist! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Please never stop support for this.

2025-01-08	mk*****	I couldn't believe I found an app that lets me increase the frequency of heart rate readings on my Apple Watch, essentially turning it into a sports watch. The instructions are well thought out, clear, and helpful. My only wish would be to have discovered this app sooner.

2024-12-16	an*****	Make sure to click allow when it asks you if the Beat Watcher app can update your Health data. Then the complication on your watch will update in real time. It’s amazing.

2024-12-12	Be*****	This measures my heart rate consistently and in the background. No fuss, no upsell, just pure function. The developer is incredibly responsive with updates and communications. This app is a must have if you own an apple watch. When I look at my apple health data graphed over time, I get actual points of data taken, back to back, all day.

Wonderful and helpful app!
2024-09-21	Bo*****	I've had tachycardia for decades, and this is the first app that gives me an audible/haptic notification when my heart rate is too high ... instrumental when I'm sleeping or not looking directly at my Apple Watch all the time. I changed my Apple Watch face to "Modular Compact" to use the Beat Watcher (Heart Rate) complication across the entire bottom of the watch, which is very useful when I'm sleeping or I don't have my glasses on. It's the best money I've ever spent on an app ... for me, it's been a lifesaver. Thanks for making this app and making it so affordable - I regularly promote this app to other veterans with similar heart conditions. (UPDATE) A few days ago, while I was at the VA Clinic, Beat Watcher alerted me to an elevated heart rate of 127 ... so I pulled out my KardiaMobile 6L EKG device, and I was able to record a tachycardia event. Generally, when the VA takes an EKG, it's normal by the time they settle me into an exam room; however, Beat Watcher allowed me to record a tachycardia event to show my doctor ... without Beat Watcher, I might not have gotten an early warning to the heart arrhythmia and tachycardia episode. (Suggestion) I want to change the alert tone on Beat Watcher because it currently sounds like every other alert on my Apple watch. Additionally, I had to disable the iOS11 Smart Stack on my Apple watch to keep using Beat Watcher as expected, not a big deal since Beat Watcher is significantly more important to me than Smart Stack.
